• Automod remove videos less than 1second long?

  You can see what kinds of properties you can see for media - I fed the URL of a video into embed.ly as that document suggested, but none of the fields returned gave me a video length... You may want to try with one of the images posted to your sub and see what properties you get. Maybe there's something else in the metadata you can search for that is common across the short videos.

• What is SERP? Meaning, Use Cases and Approaches

  While there is no specific library for SERP, there are some web scraping libraries that can do the Google Search Page Ranking. One of them which is quite famous is Scrapy - It is a fast high-level web crawling and web scraping framework, used to crawl websites and extract structured data from their pages.

• Creating an advanced search engine with PostgreSQL

  If you're looking for a turn-key solution, I'd have to dig a little. I generally write a scraper in python that dumps into a database or flat file (depending on number of records I'm hunting). Scraping is a separate subject, but once you write one you can generally reuse relevant portions for many others. If you can get adept at a scraping framework like Scrapy you can do it fairly quickly, but there aren't many... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
