I figure there may not be any off-the-shelf scripts that I can use. I tried vibe coding, but the part about getting the image recognition to work seemed non-trivial. Have you tried something like this before?

I want a gradescope-like UI for identifying the answer regions and for the app to compute scores of individual students + stats. The reason I can't use GS for my situation is that GS doesn't support confidence-based grading, which is what I am using for this exam.

Having done this a couple of times (imperfectly), happy to help any way I can! Happily, the documentation covers a lot of ground already:

I am likely to be very off in my estimates of how long the chapters will take, but we'll figure it out as we go along :) Logistics: the readings will be coordinated via Circle (as an experiment) instead of WA groups. Please make sure to sign up at the links on the GAB site.

In the mornings IST, we are reading Theory of Probability.

Now I can give you a more complete reply, @neeldhara.bsky.social. The chess book I was thinking of is Chess: The Complete Self-Tutor by Edward Lasker. Here is a sample of the interactive style.

The closest thing for me as a young person learning about computer science was ‘The Turing Omnibus’ with its bite-sized chapters and categories. My memory is chapters would tell you what was next so you could follow the automata or cryptography ‘paths’.
I only have the ‘new’ version.

Aye no fair this was a one-one mapping from @sriku.org’s list…

On the follow up list I agree, but given that I don’t know what *I* am up to most of the time, this behaviour is on brand :D

Thanks for sharing this! Turned it into a playable interactive here: interactives.neeldhara.com/knights-puzzle

Damn, me envious!

To be clear, I'm the first to admit I have a problem! Will clean up someday 🙈

Also open always: Granola, Anybox, Mathpix/Screenfloat/Cleanshot, Raycast/Hazel/Alfred/KM/Shortcuts, MacWhisper, Yoink, Dropzone, Popclip

Open-when-needed: Obsidian/Craft/Collections, Screenflow/OBSbot/OBS, VSCode/Cursor/Windsurf (based on wherever I have credits left 👀), Typora, Overleaf, etc.

So cool! 😎 Are you using the default Apple tools for mail and browsing? My list corresponding to yours would be:

Shortwave/Superhuman, Orion*, Warp*, Obsidian Canvas, RevealJS (via Slides), Zoom, Skim, Bookends, NA, NA, WA/Telegram, Strongbox, Keychain, Fantastical, Godspeed.

*experimental.
