Week 38 Group Rant

I wrote an app that tells me if a lottery ticket is winning. It takes a picture of the ticket, does OCR, finds the number lines and compares them with a remote json.
I live next door to a lottery shop.

    Does it even help you to fill out the ticket? 😆

    Imagine you had a bug in the code and you actually won a million but you will never know :O

    I play the lottery online. Automatically paid by direct debit, emails me if I win. (Last year I won £25 2 weeks in a row, never anything big.)

    @Maxeh I wanted to release the app, but the OCR results were full of false positives, seemed dangerous :)

    OCR... To make it work you need more luck than to win a lottery. Good luck!
