Right, but even when they do have your zipcode (because you added beforehand for checking stock for example) they don't update the prices. It would be nice to have the option


Have you considered using an LLM model API? You could just send it the posting text and come with a good prompt to extract the most likely required skills.


I’ve been considering an LLM API, and it definitely sounds promising. My main concern is the cost—I'm processing around 300 job offers per day and plan to scale up further. Do you have any go-to APIs you’d recommend that balance performance and pricing?


A while ago I built a prototype app to extract songs and artists from Reddit posts with thousands of comments. I used the Anthropic API, and it was pretty easy to set up and wasn't very expensive. I think you can get a pretty good estimation of how much it would cost beforehand or after a few test runs.


I’ll take a look at that. Good to hear it’s affordable for smaller tasks like that.


What are you going to google though? For most of these LC questions you only need to know how to use arrays, maps and loops. If I'm interviewing you and you tell me you need to google how to append something to an array or check if the element is in a map then I'll think you just haven't written enough code yet.

There are better questions where I do think google should be allowed but they aren't LC-style. Some examples are building APIs or operating on files


Currently working for me with ProtonVPN


Yes they do


If it's awful and doesn't improve over time (I'm talking weeks), try pushing your doctor to get an MRI. I visited three doctors before they ordered one and found two bad herniated and degenerated discs, and at that point, surgery was the recommended option. It's been a year after my surgery, and I'm finally pain-free after almost three painful years.


jheeezz, great to hear you're feeling better though!


Is that common though? I haven't met people that have a great pronunciation but poor grammar in a second language.


You could try writing blog posts for a company[1]. I haven't done this but I know people who have. It's crazy what some companies pay for such low-quality content sometimes.

I don't think I'm a good writer. But this is actually something that can be easily improved over time, I guess.

Thanks for the tip. I might give this a shot. This is something that fits my needs, you can do it in your own pace, remotely, gig work. would be perfect if I was a good writer (and native English speaker haha)


Having experience in parenting has nothing to do with understanding addiction though. If a psychiatrist tells you the best way is to just not give them a smartphone are you going to dismiss their opinion if they don’t have kids?


That's somewhat of a strawman though isn't it? I'm not saying not giving kids smartphones wouldn't work.


That wasn't my point. Your original comment passively implies people without parenting experience should keep their opinions to themselves.


I see, you're right. For sure I didn't mean that.


Not really. The first one about the anti-drunk driving is pretty similar to what many pro-gun people say: "banning guns won't stop murders". And just answering that the point is reduction seems reasonable in this case.
