    Email: safe way to buffer against spam

    Hi, I'm on a job search right now (USA, full stack developer) and have learned a lot about what works: Emailing people at the company asking to be referred to the hiring person has resulted in way more interviews compared to applying. But there's a catch. When I email say three contacts, I...

    Scrape Friendly Search Engines

    I've heard duckduckgo.com doesn't record any visitor data so it would seem good. Can't speak to quality or completeness of results though. Any other good ones that are nice to scrape without a ton of anti scrape hassles?

    Best tech stack for freelance web development?

    I'm thinking PHP / Wordpress / Laravel, or Javascript / Express / React. Concern with PHP is the smaller business / lower pay nature of the work especially in the Wordpress world, however I hear it's easier to get into. Javascript seems to be getting big for startups / front end / back end with...

    Multithreading with Python

    What resources did you guys use to learn how to multi-thread your Python programs? I would like my simple selenium bot to be able to run multiple instances concurrently, but find the subject a bit intimidating (I'm in the early stages of learning OOP).

    VPNs with Facebook

    After 5 days of trying to get Selenium/Python to use my proxies with Firefox I'm ready to try a workaround. I may use PhantomJS instead but I actually prefer a GUI browser. The other option is controlling IP at the system level, which sounds like a VPN. Are there any good VPNs that work well...

    Hi, Anyone know a fast way to fill a list of contact pages? A fully automated solution that reports successes/failures would be nice. But I could also do with semi-automation, allowing the program to alert me when it runs into an unexpected field. Right now my best known option is using...

    Does botting still work these days for affiliate marketing?

    Hey guys, I notice I'm getting a lot less Skype requests from sexy girls wanting to chat. Also on youtube there's a lot less of those "I made $500 a day from this program" posts. Are bots dying out in the affiliate marketing arena? If so it sucks for me because I'm just now gaining skill as a...
