I think I've broken my brain's ability to write in cursive.
Tried to write a little thank you note for our delivery people (we get a lot of packages), and thought "Oh, hey, it'd be nice and fancy to do this in cursive."
Thank the gods i tried on a scrap piece of paper first because I fucked up every one of the first 3 words by slipping into my shorthand.
What it would like *actually* written in #Korthic.
The quality of vector lines exported from the #remarkable tablets is crap. I had to redraw all the words on the iPad for the #korthic manual.
🤔 now I’m wondering if maybe i can export and manually clean up some lines and then apply some #machineLearning to generate an algorithm to transform the starting input into something closely resembling the cleaned up output.
Problem is, I don’t even know where to start with that. Anyone got any pointers?

I’ve got the 2.1 version of #korthic ‘s manual ready, but i still have to remake the example words PDF (already redrew all the changed words).
In the meantime, here’s “mind” written in v2.1
🤔Although, i just realized this is a “breaking change” so i really need to make this v3. Uggggh. 🤦♀️
In related news I'm testing out v2.1 of #korthic which replaces D, U, and P (the three most problematic characters)
Not 100% thrilled with the "U" character I'm testing, but overall I think these 3 changes eliminate the biggest problems / frustrations.
"Y" is still an upward slant which can cause things to get tall occasionally, but I like it none-the-less and it is infrequent enough to not be too problematic.
Just pushed a tweak to the #Korthic manual at https://korthic.fyi that corrects two typos.
2 example words are swapped and one of them didn't match the text next to it.
Well shit. I just tried my tablet’s “calligraphy pen” with my #shorthand, and i love it.
