MorphMarket.com | Senior React Developer | Remote | Full-time | Contract | https://www.morphmarket.com
I'm the founder of MorphMarket.com. We are an online marketplace that connects breeders and keepers of lizards, geckos, snakes, frogs, spiders and other captive-bred pets. Launched in 2015, we are the largest reptile-related website in the world with over 5,000 active sellers in North America and Europe on any given day. Our users passionately love the least loved animals.
We are looking to add another experienced React front-end developer to our fully remote team. Having become the leader in buying & selling, we are expanding our services for this industry.
Our backend is implemented in Python, of course. We use Django/Postgres/Redis with a front-end of React for new development. These new pages are replacing our older JQuery/Javascript/Bootstrap pages. As a FE dev, you could think of yourself as a Python handler. :)~
Key skills: React, React Native, Typescript, Javascript, SCSS, Bootstrap, JQuery. Good knowledge of webpack, flexbox, debugging, browser caching, performance profiling, web performance fundamentals. Pragmatic: ability to balance quality and speed. Nice to have: Apple App Store & Google Play experience, AWS services like S3 and Lambda.
There are 8-10 people on our product team. We collaborate with Github and Slack. We are a bootstrapped family-owned startup, with strong revenues and growth. As a developer myself, I try to keep things fun and interesting for the team.
Initial engagement is at least two months of full-time contract work possibly extending much longer. Most working hours should be during US timezones.
Please contact us at jobs@morphmarket.com with a statement of interest, relevant qualifications/experience, and billing rate. Thanks!

Right now, if you kill the script it will remove any file being currently downloaded to remove partials. I'm not sure if that happens for other failure conditions. I have added an issue for this: https://github.com/jplehmann/coursera/issues/1
http://coursera.org is creating some fantastic, free educational videos (algorithms, machine learning, natural language processing, SaaS).
This script allows one to batch download videos for a Coursera class. Given a class name and related cookie file, it scrapes the course listing page to get the week and class names, and then downloads the related videos into appropriately named files and directories.
Why is this helpful? Before I was using wget, but I had the following problems:
1. Video names have a number in them, but this does not correspond to the
actual order. Manually renaming them is a pain.
2. Using names from the syllabus page provides more informative names.
3. Using a wget in a forloop picks up extra videos which are not posted/linked,
and these are sometimes duplicates.
Naming is intentionally verbose, so that it will display and sort properly using MX Video on my Andriod phone.
Inspired in part by youtube-dl (http://rg3.github.com/youtube-dl) by which I've downloaded many other good videos such those from Khan Academy.
Awesome! I was actually planning on writing such a script over the weekend. I haven't take a look at this semester's courses, but I know last semester the quizzes and tests were quite useful for someone with no previous practice in the subject at hand. I can see your script doesn't try to get all that right?
In the NLP class there are programming assignments with special formatting, headers, etc. I kind of want to write a script that uses NLP to snag NLP's programming instruction pages (as well as example code, etc.) Seems like that would be fun to do.
But in that case wouldn't you be looking to get the essence, the plain text useful stuff of an HTML document, in which case wouldn't parsing using regular expressionism or something be better than NLP? I haven't really done scraping and parsing of documents/text so I'm not too sure.
It's possible yeah, though I like the formatting and highlighting and borders etc, it groups the different sections of the instructions together.
I see what you mean though, it's not really full NLP either way, I just used that term in place of regular expressions because it was in the NLP class that I learned about them (first homework is a phone and email scraper.) Probably my fault for using semantics wrong.
