Ask HN: Who else is tired of job postings?

Does anyone else lose interest in job postings after reading the first few bullet points? They all want you to think they are the beat place to work and their work will substantially change the world. Then they have a list of 50 skills they want you to have. I just can't stand how much fluff and BS are in the postings and how little there is about the things that actually matter. Team structure? Nope (just saying "Agile" doesn't cut it). Benefits and pay? Nope. Working hours, culture, expectations (like a senior dev can be different things at different companies)? Nope. I just find it crushes all hope - I don't see good jobs, and don't even know what would define a good job at this point. I'm a midlevel dev that just got a bad midyear review because I'm slow and need to be more engaged. What are your experiences?
