For the context , I am a 30 year old Indian guy from a metropolitan city. I stopped dating guys since last year. I feel more content, relaxed and happy ever since. I have been IP-banned by Grindr anyways ( any other app does not work here) so i eventually stopped using gay dating apps. I feel gay dating is dead. P0rn is banned here and most VPNs don't work so i eventually stopped browsing p0rn too. Idk, i feel so relieved, I don't feel ashamed of my body and dont have lofty expectations of others. My friends are straight. I do travel and eat out. Am i missing out something ?

I have been working as freelancing webscraper (India) since more than 6 years. Now i have decided to move to medium-high level Web Scraper. I have been giving web scraping interviews but resources (books/websites solely dedicated to webscraping) are almost nonexistant or outdated. Also webscraping seems to be overlapped with Data Engineering (building ETL/ELT pipelines) and figuring out website security like antibot detection systems of Cloudfare (intermediary with cloud and network security).

Every interviewer i interacted with had an expectation of me able to scrape data without using third party tools like residential proxy or captcha solvers. Biggest hurdle for web scraper is to bypass bot detection or not triggering it. I have been asked hard Leetcode questions regarding trees and SQL even though they fit more closely for data engineer profile.

Could you list some important skills to be mastered as a Web Scraper who wants to move to big enterprise level ? Any books or sites for recommendation ?
