Fixed double-escaped Markdown in YCombinator job descriptions so formatting like bold renders correctly.

Fixed [Join](https://join.com) job locations so they reflect the actual job location rather than the company HQ.

Fixed missing salary display for a small subset of jobs. The `salary_string` field was empty despite salary data being present, which left the UI column blank and impacted API results. Now any job with `min_salary` or `max_salary` includes a populated `salary_string`. This field represents the salary range in a human-readable and localized format.
