Help me out.? Confused About Starting a YouTube Channel

Hi everyone!

I’m thinking about starting a YouTube channel, but I’m a bit confused about how to get started. I also don’t have a lot of time, so I’m looking for a niche/content style that I can realistically manage.

I have a couple of questions:

Can I download videos from YouTube, edit them (cuts, commentary, subtitles, etc.), and upload them to my own channel? Would this be allowed and eligible for monetization?

What about AI-generated videos? Can I create videos using AI tools and monetize the channel?

If both are possible, which approach would be better for someone with limited time?

Any suggestions for beginner-friendly niches that don’t require a huge amount of time to produce content?

I’d really appreciate advice from people who have actually grown and monetized YouTube channels. Thanks!

Just 2 hours of rain and this is the condition in Noida.

Roads are full of water. Feels like we are living in a floating city. 🫠

Is it the same in your area, or is it just this bad here?

How do people scrape jobs from Naukri, LinkedIn, and other job portals when they actively block bots?

I'm trying to understand the technical side of job scraping.

I know that websites like Naukri, LinkedIn, Indeed, and other popular job portals have strong anti-bot systems. They detect and block scrapers, require logins, use rate limits, CAPTCHAs, JavaScript rendering, and many other protections.

What I'm want to learn is:

- How do these websites detect that a request is coming from a bot instead of a real user?

- What are the common anti-scraping techniques they use?

- How do web scrapers generally work on JavaScript-heavy websites?

- What technical challenges are involved in building a job scraper?

- What are the legal and ethical considerations when scraping job portals?

- If scraping isn't the best approach, what are the recommended alternatives (official APIs, RSS feeds, partner programs, etc.)?

I'm not looking for ways to bypass security or break a website's rules. I simply want to understand how these systems work from a technical perspective so I can learn more about web scraping, anti-bot technologies, and large-scale web applications.

I'd really appreciate explanations, blog posts, research papers, or resources that cover these topics in depth.

Thanks!

Anyone here working at Trendlyne? Interview tomorrow, need some guidance.

Hi everyone,

I have an interview scheduled with Trendlyne tomorrow. The thing is, I only found out about it this morning, so I have very little time to prepare.

I really want this job, but I'm not sure what to focus on. If anyone here works at Trendlyne or has interviewed there before, I'd really appreciate your advice.

What kind of questions should I expect (technical, coding, projects, HR, etc.)? Are there any topics I should prioritize or things the interviewers usually look for?

Any tips or interview experience would be incredibly helpful. Thanks in advance!

How do I prepare for a job switch when my company might lay people off?

Hi everyone,

I'm a software developer with around 2 years of experience. I've worked on some interesting projects like voice agents and biometric authentication, etc.

The problem is that my company currently has no active projects, and they're thinking about reducing employees. We only have about 5 developers, so I'm worried I might be affected.

I want to switch to a new job, but because of my current work and situation, I don't get enough time to prepare for interviews or improve my skills.

I'm feeling a bit stuck and don't know what to do next.

Any advice would really help.
