Nice work! I did something similar with a personal project a few months ago using an open source llm. Also, not sure if you know, there is an api you can use. https://github.com/HackerNews/API
What open source LLM did you use? Anything that would run on a CPU of a 5 year old MacBook Air (which I’m using as my home server)
Do you have the code for your project? Or maybe some features/ideas that you could share?
Thank you

Seems like you're just critiquing the Who's Hiring thread, not this app. At this point though, I'd wage r that a huge amount, if not a majority of people looking, aren't thinking about compensation first, and have accepted the reality that if they can get something that aligns even remotely with what they're interested in or are skilled at, they'd be lucky. Salaries are not going to be what they used to be. Not defen…
Yes, it's mostly a critique of those threads as a source. There's no forum to discuss them though. Not here, and the threads discourage feedback about the format. I think folks know there's downward pressure, but I'd rather not anyone have to waste time engaging with employers offering minimum wage for software engineers.
Congrats Nico. Came here to tell you about the HN API ( https://github.com/HackerNews/API ) but I see cheesehead beat me to it. Using the API it is much easier to pick up the latest thread each month and setup a cron job.
Are you using the API on some project?
This is awesome. I've been looking for a way to scrape Who's Hiring for my site https://200kjobs.com , thanks for sharing.

That’s an excellent tip, thank you very much. It will definitely come in handy soon when implementing the cron :) Are you using the API on some project?
Most of the jobs on Who's Hiring threads don't include any compensation, so I don't see how searching that source would be useful for many folks.
I’ve used GPT to estimate compensation for jobs before and got pretty good estimates. I think adding said estimate to the prompt on this app shouldn’t be hard at all and might help
