"Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic." HN Guidelines

This feels so much like the AOL volunteer revolts from 20years ago. Unpaid people vs. management.

Too late. I was a long time, paying customer but moved to Pocket.

HN is critical of YC startups.

The only thing you can't do here is criticize Elon Musk.

Replace Polygamy in your comment with marriage and see what happens:

Marriage is a deeply troublesome arrangement, with a storied history of abuse.

Yes, there is probably more abuse in marriages then outside, but this is not an argument against marriage, but against abuse.

As the parent of this comment thread mentions, Tesseract is not very great for mass usage due to the error rate with Abbyy much better. I would be interested in experience not opinion.

Thx!

If there is no opensource/free software with the same quality, what then? What are you using as an OCR server side system on Linux? I'm sure not good enough to write my own OCR better than Abbyy.

Can you point me to some prices, per core / core-year?

Finereader engine Abbyy for Linux looks fine, but I can't find price data, is it <10k/year? One time license?
