albumentations VS fontsource

You can use albumentations if you are comfortable with using open source libraries https://github.com/albumentations-team/albumentations

One of the members of the core team of our open-source library https://albumentations.ai/

It was not the only reason he was hired; it was a solid addition to his already good performance at the interviews.

Or at least that is what the hiring manager later said.

I am one of the creators and maintainers of https://albumentations.ai/.

Is something planned to support data augmentations? Something like https://albumentations.ai/

Here you go: https://albumentations.ai/

I think they should use some data augmentation techniques like I am using for Infinity AI if you wanna see more here. Note that most of these do not work for image generation.

Our second approach was a more automated one. Here the idea was to try out an image augmentation library, Albumentations, and use it for adversarial attacks. This time, instead of one-shot images, we applied the transformations at random time ranges. We chose for these transformations also to be more subtle than then one-shot images, such as vertical flips, grayscaling, downscaling, …

Check out albumentations. If your use case is segmentation, check out the offline augmentation of this project

I think this is the most popular open source project: https://github.com/albumentations-team/albumentations

You can also curate your own dataset by using open source images (https://universe.roboflow.com/search?q=faces%20images%3E1000) and open source augmentations (https://github.com/albumentations-team/albumentations). Or you can do use the augmentation UI (https://docs.roboflow.com/image-transformations/image-augmentation) to apply noise, blurring, shear, crop, etc.

Fontsource[0] is also an easy way to self-host variable fonts via NPM packages.

A few years ago, while I was still in high school, I began learning how to create websites purely for fun. One thing I found to be tedious was self-hosting fonts, with existing solutions to improve it completely abandoned. Consequently, I decided to learn a bit more about JavaScript by rewriting and improving these abandoned projects which led to the creation of Fontsource[0].

This project has undoubtedly set of a series of impactful events in my life, and I attribute many of my successes to it. I've had opportunities to network with numerous amazing engineers through it, leading to a part-time role and multiple internships. Companies that approached me for support also wanted to keep in touch! I also graduate this year and I am going with a full-time role from one of the aforementioned internships.

While I acknowledge my circumstances are extremely fortunate, I genuinely believe that having open source projects early on in your career can significantly contribute to standing out as a developer.

Tip: more privacy friendly Google alternatives are available and super easy to use: https://fontsource.org/

I switched most of my sites to use it and I’ve been quite happy so far.

No need to leak data to Google.

For weirder stuff (e.g. https://tidings.potato.horse) I use sites like dafont.com and convert fonts using Font Squirrel.

Fontsource publishes all Google Fonts fonts as NPM packages, allowing you to easily import them with modern bundlers.

I personally like using FontSource for this, they have some extra fonts beyond Google Fonts too

I stumbled upon fontsource.org the other day and I found the idea of installing fonts from npm packages appealing.

To do this with SvelteKit, you can use the Fontsource project. They host all of the Google Fonts catalogue as NPM packages.
