       | Guten Haiku was created as I had a severe need to extract as many
       | legit Haiku poems from the whole corpus for Gutenberg.
       | 
       | It didn't mean a lot to me if it was the "fastest kid in town"
       | but it sure needed to be pretty ;-)
       | 
       | The journey:
       | 
       | 0. I write in python3
       | 
       | 1. I went for space as nlp lib of choice (they are so niiiiiice
       | peoples)
       | 
       | 2. I needed to be able to extract syllables but space didn't know
       | how to do that
       | 
       | 3. I therefore created another lib called
       | https://github.com/sloev/spacy-syllables to annotate tokens with
       | their syllable counts
       | 
       | 4. I now had a syllable counting pipeline built with space
       | 
       | 5. Now I needed to make an 80's aesthetics inspired cli app for
       | my pipeline
       | 
       | 6. I started with creating the whole colourful look with colorama
       | and click
       | 
       | 7. I created the default command for extracting haiku from text
       | 
       | 8. I created another command for downloading fancy AI models ...
       | uuuuh fancy!
       | 
       | 9. Boring test implementation... yawn... zzz zz z
       | 
       | 10. Even more boring packaging with poetry
       | 
       | 11. Even even more boring time with travis, I don't love you
       | right now travis
       | 
       | 12. Release to the internets on GitHub and pypi
       | 
       | 13. Battle with asciinema and asciicast2gif to get a pretty
       | README up and going
       | 
       | 14. Write hacker news about by personal triumph :-)
       | 
       | I wanna shout out to everybody and say that you all should make
       | something silly and pretty today. I value those things highly and
       | if you haven't visited https://theuselessweb.com/ yet, please do
       | so cause TIM HOLMAN is a really nice guy with a great
       | imagination.
       | 
       | Peace out and take care during the virus thingy!
