Compressing a CSV with OCR
What is the best way to compress a CSV? It depends on how you define “best.” To save the most disk space. Print the file in a good OCR font and delete the file. It’ll take zero disk space. Later you can scan it back in and OCR it.
A Quora-style question asks for the best way to compress a CSV file. The answer humorously suggests printing it in an OCR-friendly font, deleting the digital file, and scanning it back later, achieving zero disk usage at the cost of absurd inconvenience and degradation. It is a reaction meme about technically clever but impractical optimization.
