Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.



Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Yes, PDFs are much more permissive and may not have any semantic information at all. Hell, some old publications are just scanned images!

PDF -> semantic seems to be a hard problem that basically requires OCR, like these people are doing

Oh nice, thanks for sharing that project. I haven't heard of it before!
