2022 Highlights: Open Source Development! ✨
intel/cve-bin-tool - 2 pull requests

December goals
Intel/cve-bin-tool: There are several issues in this repository that are interesting to me, particularly the ones about creating checkers. I would say it is not very coding-heavy, but it needs a lot of research before doing it.

The perfect open-sourcer does not exist
Whether you contribute small or big chunks of code, being consistent about them carries vital importance. Small contributions to a particular project help you to get familiar with it at first and leads to something bigger. Take a look at some pull requests I have raised to the following projects; withfig, cve-bin-tool, my-photohub, pr-approve-generator.

Release 0.3 External Pull Request
For my release 0.3 for OSD600, I have to create a pull request for an external repo. The repo I contributed to was cve-bin-tool. This post was late because I had was busy with other commitments and projects compounded with problems finding workable issues. In the future, I would definitely follow my own advice and search for issues early and often. I didn't follow this advice and found myself in this position.

May the merge be with you - Hacktoberfest 🎃
The issue was to fix mypy type issues in __init__.py. I was able to fix the type issues and also added type annotations to the codebase. The project was well documented and I faced no issues running it. Big projects like nodejs, vscode or this, cve-bin-tool all have strict guidelines for contributions. Even on the commit messages get checked when you raise a PR. See one of the commit messages from gitlint in their workflow.

On persistence, collaboration, trial and error - Hacktoberfest 2022 🚀🌟🔧
My two PRs for Intel’s CVE-Binary-Tool got merged! These (Fix1 , Fix 2) were my first ever Hacktoberfest merges. These were small contributions but big confidence boosters. I am a beginner in programming, and if I can make small contributions, so can you. From one beginner to another – start small, try your best, trust the process, and ask for help.

Hacktoberfest PR#2: Windows isn't the greatest OS for development
So, eventually I started looking for issues rather than repos. I added some labels and details to the search so I wouldn't just look through 83 million issues, and finally found an issue in Intel's cve-bin-tool.

Things I Learned Through My First Hacktoberfest Pull Requests!
I created two pull requests for Intel’s CVE Binary Tool. CVE Binary Tool is a tool that scans a file for known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures.

My first contribution to Intel!
My goal for this year's Hacktoberfest was to contribute to at least one big established company or product in IT. Luckily for me, I landed on a an interesting repo called the CVE Binary Tool. It is an open source tool to help you determine if your system includes known vulnerabilities. It is based of the data from the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) list of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs).

A better document viewer
If by "like a photocopy" you mean the file contains images of text rather than text, the MacOS viewer presumably does OCR on the images. I don't know if there's a Linux document viewer with that capability built-in, but a quick search turned up the standalone tool OCRmyPDF.

OCR for a full pdf on Neoreader
For anyone interested I solved the problem by first ocr files through the free and open source software ocrmypdf avaible here

ELI5: why is PDF such a widespread text format, instead of a format that's actually easier to edit?
ocrmypdf is nice for stuff like that.

Use imagemagick to convert them to PDF and ocrmypdf to straighten and OCR. See this explanation.

OCR pdf and just keep the OCR text
Fair enough, maybe this might work for you, it should seperate the text from image anyway and if you have Adobe acrobat it should be able delete the background too with the edit function. It may already be able to do that if you haven't tried it
