Do you know of a platform for (paid) "on-demand coding"? Like mechanical turk, but for programming tasks? [closed] - platform

I am risking asking a "question that appears subjective"... yet I find it precise, please forgive: I was wondering whether there existed a platform where people can post a specific programming need they have, and programmers could sign up for the tasks.
I am thinking of low-skill/low-time tasks here, with money involved as well. Targeted not at professionals (who have a full-time job and enough money...), but on e.g. students with some coding skills who are happy to spend 30 minutes to implement something like "write me a Python algorithm to collect all images from this webpage" for a person not knowing Python and for e.g. 30 bucks.
Could be win-win - one guy gets his stuff done without investing much time, the other has a way to earn a few bucks in their leisure time.

Really sorry if this question seems silly but I am really desperate for learning spark and more importantly understanding spark execution plans in spark-ui, before posting it here I have spend couple of months over the net and Udemy to find some book, course or any other resources which can explain the spark-ui and its execution plan in detail with practical examples.
I have wasted lots of money on courses but getting no benefit, these courses only tell you how to and when to use which function or API which I already knows.
Can someone please help me with some good book, resource or training so that I can practice spark by diving deep into internals.

I am looking for a library that when given text like this :
"I don't know, this wasn't the first time. But as I said I'm 45yo male now and I'd rather not do things like that again"
Will return some object containing informations like this : {"gender":"male", "age":45}
(Ideally something evolved enough that it recognizes different ways of saying it, ex: "I'm 45" / "Im 45" / "I am now 45yo", "I turned 45 yesterday" etc
Within NLP, the task you're looking for is identifying/detecting PII (personally identifiable information). Depending on your budget/scope, AWS offers PII detection within Amazon Comprehend.
Alternatively, pii-codex offers an open source solution that may meet your needs.

I was wondering if there where any good resources like books or programs for learning how to code. I've been trying to learn by watching tutorials but I end up just fallowing the instructions without really knowing how and why things go together the way they do. So I get lost when trying to make my own projects.
I was wondering what are the recommended resources? preferably with plenty of exercises so I could get a lot of practice.
Thank you!

Try sololearn app
After getting the certificate
Then re-take the course from
W3shools but always remember to practice and inverting the codes you learn

I've noticed that the wiki transcriptions for some of the recent Stack Overflow Podcasts are kind of weak. Clearly, this task calls for a computer program. Is transcribing audio to text (ideally with speaker labels so we know who said what) something that could feasibly be accomplished in software? Are there any active open-source software projects attempting to implement such functionality?
Believe me, I have searched for this before. There are slim to none text to speech that are open source or free to use. From my search there weren't any free speech to text synthesizers. These things are so hard to code and expensive that they can't really be made with an open source approach. If you really need this you would have to purchase it from a company. (although I don't know any off the top of my head).
I've looked into this a little. I tried the Microsoft Speech API but got very poor results. I've been wanting to look into the CMU Sphinx project, especially the Transcriber demo.

When making software, specially games, those resources like graphics and sounds are something "freaky" that's out of range of the developers brain and feasibility. I mean...sound effects like cool beeps: Who in the world can make them? Almost nobody of us, I guess ;)
So: Is there any good legal ressource for this kind of content, which allow to use them in Apps? How do all those developers make those cool and nice apps with nice music, nice sound and nice graphic without getting sued right away? Where do they get their high-quality contents?
Where can I get freely available audio, graphics, and other resources for games?
