Career/Edu

Some bit of context : I just started an internship at a startup in Wales and been given a task. I don't know much of python (I've only used it during my master's degree in Cosmology for data analysis from space satellites). The task is , I've been given an excel sheet of products and MPN,SKUs and I need to find specifications of each of these products like dimensions , weight , shipping info , speaker count , impedance , wattage etc etc. (Basically every bit of information from the product page URLs. The thing is , I don't have these product page URLs and it's what I have to scrape for first and then somehow extract all these details from it. How do I go about this? I've been using serpapi and getting somewhere but the links aren't very accurate for some of them.

Anyone here who doesn't use Agentic AI and writes code manually?

I wonder if there are any people today who don't have any agentic AI subscriptions, who code by themselves, read docs, try to understand, and enjoy the process in this fast-growing AI era, where everyone is promoting AI to do everything.

(Note: I'm asking because I write my code by myself and don't use agentic AI, but I do use ChatGPT or other AI to learn things if I get stuck.)


What is the best way to deal with videos for online courses application?
What is the best way to deal with videos for online courses application?

I'm currently working on an application for online courses to an online school, I mainly care about integrity, security, and the experience of the student while watching the course. What is the best way to deal with the videos?

I have read about Cloud Flare Stream and it provides the exact service I want but it's very expensive, I don't have that enterprise budget scope. I also read about Bunny*net, it has way more better prices but the delivery (when the video is streamed to the student) fees still so expensive.

I though about using Youtube with unlisted videos links with tunnels to secure the link a little bit, but it will drop the performance noticeably and I don't know if it's a morally a good choice.

Is there any better ways to do this? I would appreciate an advice.
