And yet we're still forces to work

I'll see if there are any other APIs, maybe I missed some. I specifically need the Polish ones so it's a bit tricky

I'm using a similar API, I think IMDb wasn't publicly available or something like this? I don't remember exactly. I need Polish actors if that makes any difference.

Good idea with focusing on the main features. I wanted to try this at first but with web appinstead of the usual console app was a little awkward but I'll look into this again.

Currently the number 1 issue is extracting actor names. They don't come in json like an array or something, they're only available via parsing a page so a string with html markup and stuff. There was some confusion because when I asked about that, I might've described it wrong because people on the server thought I'm doing web scraping? I'm not sure if it counts as scraping if it's from an api though. I'll have to clear it up probably but that last misunderstanding was really stressful.

Does the "not-ending" apply to really small things though? I think mine can have an end, it's more of a demonstration than a serious thing.

That makes sense. I arrived to a similar conclusion so I'm switching the tasks up from time to time but I think I'll reinforce that because right now it's not planned out the best way. It can be improved.

Maybe, ironically, doing other tasks will actually help me accomplish more of the main one. I feel like it could work that way.

It's a last resort. I don't like using it and it's a 50/50 anyway. One time it suggests reasonable things, the other time it totally misses the point. I'm not sure if the suggestions are following best practices too.

I only described it here for context, usually I focus on the functionality itself, unless the bigger picture is needed even though it's a little difficult for me to tell which details are important and what can be omitted. Sometimes despite my best efforts there's some confusion and making it right is consuming a lot of energy.

It works similarly for me with the motivation thing. I don't have anything against learning things but I wish it was easier to find information about more complex things than just the most basic stuff. It's the problem with all those courses. They're great as a "starter" but after that point, you're on your own in a weird void. The documentation doesn't help much as well. Tutorial hell is a weird place to be in.

Yeahh I heard about it. But I have to tell people about it when I'm asking for help. I'm trying to do as much on my own as possible but there are moments where it's more than I can deal with.

In a world where you must work, making jobs disappear is a death sentence. And don't you start babbling about "new jobs being made". There's no guarantee they'll pay as much and be as available as the ones lost. AI is not a thing to look forward to, judgning by how it's used. It probably could've been used for good but tech millionaires aren't good people.

Make the execs cry yessss

Is the image AI-generated as well? Ironic

While it was a change for the better back then, it was a century ago. It's high time the work week gets reduced again while keeping the wages intact. It's totally doable.

They won't work for us, they'll work for the rich and the working class might as well starve because we're just expendable parts to them. I'm afraid we're not going to make enough reforms before AI will be cheaper than human labor in enough places to cause high unemployment. Idk man, it's freaky times we live in

Nestle owns like 20 candy brands or something so it's not so simple

Thank you <3 you're the best

I tried it and naaah it's not that great. Keeps giving a rule for sample text too, despite really making it clear that I want a more general one.

I secretly counted on finding a similar thread already because I only have a phone with me right now so it's difficult to take really indepth notes for making a proper issue report. Oops.

From the "view communities" list I can't enter the community, refreshing and trying to subscribe anyway doesn't work at all. It's not empty, it's like it doesn't exist at all. Weird stuff.
