Ugh, parsed data can be such a pain! I feel you. One thing that saved me was using BeautifulSoup for HTML/XML—super flexible for messy stuff.
Also, regex can be a lifesaver for quick fixes, but it’s easy to overcomplicate. For bigger projects, maybe check out OpenRefine? It’s great for cleaning and transforming parsed data without coding everything manually.
And yeah, structure changes mid-project are the worst. I’ve started dumping raw data first, then processing later. Less headache!
