Can I ask how you parsed job postings from the rest? I have a few programs that would greatly benefit from the ability to distinguish the jobs from normal posts. It doesn't seem that they are different in html...
- cj 14y agoI presume he's not parsing and instead simply manually entering the Who's Hiring threads and crawling those. If you look down the list you'll see a few entries that are not job posts. Edit: And the YC job postings are located at http://news.ycombinator.com/jobs http://news.ycombinator.com/jobs
- also_on_sunday 14y agoCorrect - I'm just parsing all the comments and only showing the "top level" ones. I use this library I wrote: https://github.com/brianc/node-hacker-news-parser https://github.com/brianc/node-hacker-news-parser which builds a tree structure of the comments.
