Nice! I was considering doing this but the Pangram API is very expensive. Then I considered training my own model and I fortunately stopped at the edge of that rabbit hole.

Yea very expensive (hence me siphoning another page haha).

Im trying to get something cheaper to work, Pangram has some nice docs on how to build something like their service https://github.com/pangramlabs/EditLens, they even have training data online.

The harm a missclassification carries is much lower for a hn post than a masters thesis, so we might be fine with a worse model.

Yeah agree, Pangram puts out interesting material. I recently came across their v4 technical report and they shared a lot more than I would have expected them to.

But see, here I am back at the edge of the rabbit hole, and you're trying to pull me in. I refuse!

If you do end up training a model, send me an email and maybe I can tie it into the site.

Will do, thanks for hcker.news btw, has been my main mobile client for couple of months. Of all things i like the changelog most, its nice to have a quick view about new stuff, especially if the website changes somewhat faster than usual.

Thanks! I always forget to update the changelog for a bunch of stuff. I'm glad you have eyes on it, I'll be more mindful to add to it.
