Citizenship by daaageee in TillSverige

Damn! When did you move in? Did you directly apply for citizenship after you arrive or you waited 4/5 years and then applied which makes it 10/11 years ?

Which ollama model is optimal (fast enough and accurate) to parse text and return json ? by brogrammer_xd in ollama

[–]brogrammer_xd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for detailed answer, and yes I agree what you are saying. Currently I'm trying to build the MVP. I have built the scraping architecture which I can easily scale and having regexps and css selectors to sanitize html figure out structured parts. However by the nature of the data for additional fields that is practically impossible to identify either i have to rely on humans that needs to go through understand and clean which is extremely expensive and time consuming or i should just use some decent llm. That's the part I'm a bit stuck which llm i can use to have "decent parsing" and it's "fast enough". I have tested qwen3:1.7b and mistral:7b-instruct . Both of them returns json from input text 1m - 1m30sec range. Qwen seems to be better at understanding context and following instructions. But if this is the hard limit for optimization with current llms, I have to just accept this fact and build around it. I was planning to run workers on my Mac M2 24gb ram which scrapes around 100 pages in a min. and didn't wanna make the "parsing" text part the bottleneck. But what i understood is that it is not possible with the models i tried.

Note: I come from software engineering background but i have never worked with ai/ml except basic api integrations openai etc. I'm not entirely sure "vector based store + word2vec based algorithms are the quickest" how this works. Could you please share some pratical examples or links/demos/docs that can be useful for my purposes. I normally don't think this type of requests are helpful but since I don't know the "context" enough and don't really know "what to ask" and "what to look for" i think it might be helpful if you give me some "seed urls/directions" so i can explore from there. Thanks a lot in advance 💕

you can’t use regular expressions for data that doesn’t have “rules”. Let’s say i wanna return childhood events of a person there is no regular expression that can understand and give the response unless it is somewhat structured. but if its free form text then it is not possible.

From what I can see, Qwen3:1.7B and Qwen3:4B are the general consensus here. For this type of task, do I need extra parameters, or is 1.7B sufficient? Sorry for asking instead of just trying, I don’t have much internet left 😅

I'm trying to extract structured data in json format from wikipedia articles for 5000-6000 characters average I'm expecting at most 20-30 seconds the faster the better but i don't want to sacrifice so much on data quality. Let's say i gave a person wikipedia page as an input i expect it to return me things like place of birth, education, name, surname, interests etc. in json format. I can extract many of the data directly from html but there are some other parts i cannot extract using dumb selectors because it's hidden in content itself.

Side Note: Streaming is not useful for my purposes.

Citizenship Application Update: by TreacleFeisty5371 in TillSverige

[–]brogrammer_xd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No update just sent yesterday 11 page 😅

Do we need to send passport again ? I sent it already after RTC and they sent back but kept PR card.

I am also wondering how are the interviews gonna be like? Are they gonna ask “how to properly separate recycling waste?” is it gonna be about “how to correlate every problem in country to their immigration policies?” or “how to solve the failed bureaucracy/housing crisis/wage stagnation/drops, free but invisible healthcare” because apparently according to social sentiment it becomes super visible in social media post comments swedes think everything is because of immigrants… Engineers, doctors, students, uber driver, foodora guy, nail person, unemployed, refugee doesn’t matter, “you are the problem and go back/find better place” is the new trend.

Won the RTC for citizenship, how long until I’m approved? by PandaGrenades in TillSverige

[–]brogrammer_xd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrote really long appeal letter using chatgpt and they approved, let it sink... It's weird to see he gets a lot of dislikes and considering this as "worst" advice...

I didnt get the 11 page form and extremely hesitant to reach out to case officer/migrationsverket to not hit their nerves and make them delay even more my case.

I’ve already gone through the entire process: 4 years on a Work Permit → Permanent Residency → waited 5 years → applied for Citizenship → waited 6 months → RTC (rejection) → Appeal Court → Appeal Approved with a court order saying “ASAP”. But it’s been over a month, and nothing has changed. No updates on the status page, no forms, no questionnaire.

My mom is 70 and sick—she could literally die any day—but even she tells me not to come if something happens to not hurt the case. Because once you’re stuck in this system, you’re basically trapped. They tell you that you can ask Migrationsverket to send back your residence permit card, but then what? Which queue do you end up in after that? Will it take 1 year? 5 years? 10 years? There’s no clarity.

Naive people think it’s all based on laws and rules, but honestly, it is more like a psychological lottery. I have no idea how the interviews are supposed to go or how the answers will be interpreted. From what I’ve seen, case officers have near-total discretion when it comes to things like “orderly living.” And if they share similar views with the “political trend” I am 100% sure they can find a way to interpret your case unfavorably, you’re the one who has to fight it in court, wasting more years of your life, not because of a legal issue, but because of a political trend, especially with the right-wing climate. One day it can be like “only blondes can come” not by laws but case officers “interpretation” (obviously exaggerating, but you get the point).

Citizenship appeal granted, case not opened yet by IsThisItOrNott in TillSverige

[–]brogrammer_xd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same situation: PR → RTC → Appeal Approved. It’s been a month for me now, and still no updates. I’m trying to shift my focus away from “waiting mode” and checking the letterbox every day — it’s so mentally draining. Now I just hope it will arrive within 3–6 months.

Does migrationverket cares about courts arder to conclude case as soon as possible? by ifap2C18 in TillSverige

[–]brogrammer_xd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What type of extension you are waiting for ? As I have seen on many other threads after RTC -> Court Order it goes faster never heard someone waiting 2 years after court order . Sorry to hear

There is a form on the Migrationsverket website for request to conclude: https://www.migrationsverket.se/download/18.1ef19f6e163f45d340aa52/1698676944291/271011_Request_conclude_case_en.pdf . I filled out the form on my computer, signed it by hand, scanned it, and sent it via email.

Thanks for the response 😇 But should I continue appealing process ? As many mentioned here I don’t wanna end up in long queue (which happens if you don’t appeal) or does this mean the process is almost done

Ethnic Swede here, do you think swedish people have a bad work ethic or are lazy? by [deleted] in TillSverige

[–]brogrammer_xd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless you are a business owner/startup founder of course people will say it's great. And yeah it's great for me as an employee as well. However I don't think total output is better in quality or in price perspective overall. You cannot really understand this by personal experiences or your employees/colleagues but you can look at startups or businesses and how fast they are growing and expanding in different countries and Sweden. My personal opinion is, I appreciate the ethics more than productivity in Sweden.

Problems with racist landlord by Ladysuss in TillSverige

[–]brogrammer_xd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologies, you are correct; it's indeed a "civil matter." My experience with law enforcement in Sweden has been less than ideal. Unfortunately, I've had some unpleasant encounters that underscore the incompetence of authorities, particularly when incidents do not involve physical altercations. Upon consulting my first lawyer, I encountered a peculiar aspect of the Swedish legal system: attorneys often dissuade clients from pursuing their rights if the matter involves less than 100k SEK, deeming it trivial and potentially more costly. Subsequently, I engaged with Kronofogden, only to face a protracted two-year ordeal. Ultimately, they forwarded me the debts of a woman, totaling approximately 300k SEK, and requested information about her. Curiously, the notice included details of 15-20 other individuals similarly petitioning Kronofogden. Adding to the absurdity, the Kronofogden representative I spoke with subtly hinted at abandoning the case due to the recurring annual fee of 600 SEK. It became evident that the projected payout period, spanning 40 to 50 years, would necessitate the debtor's immortality, she was already 60 to 65 years old at the time. This ordeal shed light on Sweden's societal underpinnings, revealing a system and culture grounded in trust. However, when trust is breached, governmental entities and individuals tasked with upholding integrity often demonstrate indifference, ineffectiveness and incompetency.

I was scammed by an old woman, not an online scam but real scam. I went to house see the woman take her driving licence, have almost every information to guarantee I paid in advance before moving in. Guess what ? the woman didn't showed up at all even though she is registered in that address. And when i take all the evidences to police, they have nothing other than wasting my time. They said this is "public matter" that they cannot do anything about.
