Earlier quoted context omitted.

You are right. :( I do scan remote links daily looking for non-200s, but that's obviously not robust enough.

Also, some of them are not actually WFH, e.g. this one requires relocation to Portland: https://www.wfh.io/jobs/16/

I'm pretty stringent about that -- if you click the employer's job link, you'll see:

"We'll work with you wherever you are (in the US) or help you relocate to Portland, OR."
