Check out the comments I'm making on Reddit!

What: I convert & comment running/cycling paces found in images to their metric/imperial equivalent.

Why: For convenience of people used to either system.

When: Check for new image posts every 5 minutes. (Reddit Galleries take more time to get processed as Reddit delays the population of correct image order in the JSON by 5~10 mins)

Where: Monitor & comment on posts in bunch of activity subs.

How: Query the latest JSON of every monitored sub, identify if post contains image/s, use either Google Cloud Vision or AWS Rekognition to do the OCR, regex the pace/s out of the text extracted, convert them, & finally comment.
