Lightning Talks + Closing Remarks DAY 1
summary
Five‑minute lightning set yields concrete wins and failures: converting PDFs to markdown with images using Gemini and GPT‑4 works for structure but returns wrong bounding boxes so image extraction with pimuPDF plus GP4 reattachment is the reliable hack; time zone canary detects DST duplicates and narrows plausible zones, saving manual sleuthing; a Streamlit clinical dashboard on AWS cuts deployment from months to days; a numpy structured‑dtype demo claims “maybe no need pandas.” Watch the demos showing code, data errors, and what actually runs.
