Hey HN,<p>I'm Gabriel (I go by the Law on the internet), I'm a fullstack developer and I make little projects on the week-ends<p>A while back I found this thread on HN (<a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40644960">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40644960</a>) about Author Clock.<p>Their website sells a clock that tells the time with book quotes. As an experiment I tried my hand at finding time expressions in books.<p>Here's the repo with my scripts (it's a mess)
<a href="https://github.com/The-Law-1/Write-On-Time-Data">https://github.com/The-Law-1/Write-On-Time-Data</a><p>I also wrote a tiny blog about the process

Let me know if you have any thoughts!
