News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

isnotaname

It doesn’t. I don’t want to bloat it. No AI can write better than an indie founder, that's why you're not sure about the worth :)
Most tools that help me find relevant posts are bloated and ridiculously overpriced.

I built a dead-simple tool that scans Reddit for keywords you care about. Just enter your project description and it’ll generate keywords for you. Or just enter your own. Based on those, it finds posts you can engage with. Use it for market research or to promote your project. It’s completely free.

Feedback’s very welcome. I’m also working on AI-powered filtering ATM to make the results more relevant.

Cron jobs don’t scale well when you’re on Kubernetes or in distributed systems — you end up with duplicates, failures, and a mess. We built Schedo to solve this and much more: a cloud scheduler that just works, without extra complexity. It’s designed to handle scale and reliability without you having to juggle locks, queues, or overkill third-party tools.
Re:Show HN: LinkedIn Profile Roaster crossed 70k profiles on Monday December 23, 2024 @06:25PM (#42498414)
Too shy to post the roast I got, but… it’s awesome The result sounds more like a Grok model than a sonnet, lol

Btw (not advertising, just genuinely impressed), I can offer you unlimited access to the LinkedIn API, 100% free, just for entertainment purposes. I’ll email you

It is a scraper, and you would need it because LinkedIn doesn't have any meaningful public API

Yes, I'm currently considering RapidAPI, but mainly just as a traffic source. For one of my projects, I tried the 'Fresh LinkedIn Profile Data' API from RapidAPI, which comes at a cost and isn't always perfect in terms of success rate

I made a bulletproof LinkedIn Scraper

I made a LinkedIn Scraper that stands out for its success rates, data completeness and price (yeah, it's way cheaper than rivals, who perform worse).This scraper got much liked by reddit users, so I'm curious what hackernews follks will say.Check it out here: https://getapihub.cloud

Re:Affordable LinkedIn Scraper on Saturday August 31, 2024 @03:13PM (#41411149)
Hey folks, I built this because scrapin LinkedIn was too costly for my fun-project (LinkedIn roaster), and services charge a fortune. Though others might find it useful.

What it does: * Provides LinkedIn profile/company/etc data via API * Significantly cheaper than alternatives * Free tier available, paid starts at $30/m per 1k requests

Looking for any sort of feedback. How would you use this?

Would be useful to have the app/extension to generate such summary (but not as funny) as you navigate the profile
