anti-slop-vision: Vision quality gates: prompt hygiene plus a VLM judge…

Most anti-slop-vision write-ups stop at the README: here is what the tool does, here is how you run it. This one covers what it refuses to do, and where it breaks. What it is Vision quality gates: prompt hygiene plus a VLM judge rubric with a SHIP / FIX / REGEN verdict — visual slop and hallucinations get cut before delivery. In Russian: Vision-гейты качества: гигиена промпта плюс рубрика…

The anti-slop-vision tool stops after its README, detailing its functionality and usage. However, this report delves into its limitations and shortcomings. Vision quality gates involve prompt hygiene alongside a VLM judge's rubric, leading to a SHIP / FIX / REGEN verdict. The tool eliminates visual slop and hallucinations before delivery.

In Russian, it's referred to as "Vision-gates of quality: hygiene of prompts plus VLM-judge rubric with SHIP / FIX / REGEN verdict - visual slop and hallucinations are excluded before delivery."

To install and run the tool, use Python 3 with the command "python3 scripts/eval.py img/ --prompt 'a red guitar' -m vision-model." It is licensed under MIT.

The tool reads the data it is given and does not send any information elsewhere. While every rule may produce false positives, it should be used to identify candidates for rewriting, not to grade writing, and not when voice is the main focus. The source code, issue tracker, and documentation can be found at https://gitlab.com/ameobius-ai/anti-slop-vision. The author also has other tools available at https://ameobius-ai.gitlab.io.

Hyperbolic tiling in Python: draw Escher's Poincare disc and 3D print it

Escher's Circle Limit prints show a hyperbolic tiling squeezed into a disc, with tiles shrinking toward the rim. The maths is short: a tile edge is a circle that meets the unit circle at right angles…
