My product manager is doing the opposite - pushing us to replace “bandwidth” and “effort” with “time”. We’re now expected to provide an accurate hour estimate for all work items, projects, and bugs. Getting it done later or sooner is penalized on the metrics.

Jain’s team then built artificial-intelligence models that were able to stitch the microscope images together to reconstruct the whole sample in 3D.

The map is so large that most of it has yet to be manually checked, and it could still contain errors created by the process of stitching so many images together. “Hundreds of cells have been ‘proofread’, but that’s obviously a few per cent of the 50,000 cells in there,” says Jain.

Ah so it’s not a real model, just an AI approximation.

The frontend is HTML only? Then I’d go with C# and ASP.NET Razor pages. Modern language with good DX, performant runtime, and server-side rendering.

There’s a limited pool of random inputs, so it’s possible to collect them all with enough input samples. In the past, the creator has asked people not to upload their input file because there are bots that scrape GitHub looking for the inputs.

Thanks for the reminder! I almost forgot to set up my repo. 🤦‍♀️ I’ll be publishing my solutions on GitHub for anyone interested. This year I finally got around to restructuring things to keep the input files out of git, so I won’t have to feel guilty about leaking the problem inputs.
