I'm going to learn to ship things. I can build a full SaaS in 5 days using Claude so there is no excuse for me not to ship.

I've been out of work 2 years, had to do a GoFundMe just to survive the winter, and I raised 5k which gave me a runway to get off Uber and Lyft and focus on finding clients to build for add with chatGPT I think I'm in the verge of figuring this freelance thing out ..

other things to learn: I want to get AWS certified and work on other certifications like Service Now... or sales force...

I'm wanting a digital agency but need to figure out the sales aspect.

hmu if you need or want a partner...

I’m a full-stack developer focusing on Laravel + Vue or livewire and AI automation for small businesses. 12+ years building production apps, internal tools, and integrations.

Recent work includes: – SaaS dashboards and internal CRM systems – AI-powered automations (agent workflows, lead scoring, data extraction) – React Native mobile apps (Expo) – Custom APIs, OAuth, payment integration – Landing pages + onboarding flows

Looking for contract or part-time work. I ship fast, communicate clearly, and handle the full lifecycle from idea → architecture → deployment.

I'm open to tech support or writing gigs as well.

I drive for Uber sometimes I use an app where it'll automatically take an Uber and turn off Lyft and door dash.. when it meets a filter... for example: $1 per mile, 25 per hour avg, and over $5 minimum...

you can manually accept ones less than the filter... but it pops up a thing with all this data so you can make a decision whether it's worth it and while driving it's nice it turns the rest off so you don't have bad stats when they send you an offer and you don't take it because you couldn't turn it off yet....

it's $18 per month but worth every penny!

plus I just hit 1 button to login to every service...

if you hire someone are they going to always be right the first time you give them directions?

does this include if the AI can devise new components and use drones and things essentially to build a new iteration of itself more capable to compute a thing and keep repeating this going out into the universe as needed for resources and using von Neumann probes.. etc?

or you can have chatGPT make one to your specifications in his style...

yeah, same thought. I'm 45... heard of the band but that's it.

Currently homeless, driving Uber and Lyft. I've fixed my mental health after a shit storm of life events, mostly using AI as therapist.

I'm going back to school soon for psychology (figure financial aid can also pay room and board).

I'm wanting to build a mobile journal app with a bunch of AI guided 'games' to help learn DBT skills or work out trauma or do Shadow work or just guided CBT for a purpose.

I've changed my MBTI from intp-t to enfp-a...(I find I revert sometimes when I don't feel safe)... in other words I've become a very outgoing people person at least I'm a lot less afraid in social situations or to act like a fool on the dance floor... etc...

I also want to write a book and do videos on hacking your brain using AI... nobody seems to be doing this... there's a lot of potential for this niche I think.

I fixed hobbies, depression, and social life, all that's left is physical and financial and those are kind of easy when emotions are in check.

it's got PHP and tooling and Arch Linux it's just what I'm comfortable with but I've got a MacBook (someone gifted me one from this thread) so yeah I'll definitely be using that for freelancing soon.

where do you find the old ladies to rent from?

someone on here bought me a used MacBook. so yeah going to try freelancing that. I'll still do Uber (it's helped my mental health l but I don't want to rely on it and I want to save wear and tear on car so maybe just Saturdays...

my email is on my profile didn't see yours on yours, would love to connect though.

safe house?

inheritance, I'm hoping in the next month. With that I'd find a roommate situation for like $600 (average)... then work on freelancing, etc.

My depression is I believe in remission and I've built resiliency skills. I might be getting a sales job soon, selling astroturfing and rock scaping to homeowners.

It's door to door sales but the pay is good if I can actually set appointments. Plus I'm working on overcoming rejection sensitivity and overthinking, I think sales could help with that..

I guess that's what I'm used to and... my brain isn't great at 9 to 5 work, my best code is written late at night. I'm probably 60 percent as productive when I have to work a rigid schedule.

I was making 50 per hour doing freelance programming two years ago but I've had trouble finding clients and then I didn't have a place to work from, making it even harder. That's my biggest obstacle. I've got 10+years experience with PHP, JavaScript, laravel. etc...

I've got 10 years experience with laravel, lots of PHP, JavaScript, vue, react, MySQL, Python etc...i just don't have a computer unless I can find a place to set up my desktop... that's my biggest hurdle.

I only have a desktop. I thought about getting office space from the chamber of commerce for 250 per month... and I can use their fridge to save money on food (Greek yogurt, Jimmy Dean sandwiches, and string cheese is all I need)...

you sound like a person I used to date who my therapist says is definitely a clinical narcissist... love bombing, devaluation, isolating from family members, transactional and conditional, and discard.

edit: I ask because I used to have the domain zvive and use that username... so a little personal for the user to use zvive2.

yeah, I think it will. I didn't know how strong I could be until I lost everything and built my life back up and even with my financial struggles it feels more fulfilling than it ever was before...

I'm posting my journey on IG: therapeutic.ai (username not a domain)...

I'm planning on adding a bunch of prompt examples and outcomes... my favorite thing is like I'll have tough feelings and I'll ask chatGPT to ferret out the trauma behind it and help me release the things... use RTT, DBT, and CBT to reprogram my brain, ask I've question then follow up questions based on answers...

this is with a custom gpt that has a bunch of self help bullet point PDFs as well as a bunch of journal entries and previous therapy chat threads (got too long)... major things I break out into their own document or PDF as a source for the gpr.

I'm in Medicaid in Utah. I'm taking 70mg in a hospital setting once per week for about 7 to 10 weeks combined with therapy.

Medicaid copay is only $20.

I'm living out of my car, door dashing and Uber in Southern Utah. Saving up to rent office space for my computer (I don't have a laptop)...

I lost my mom, marriage of 18 years, Grandma, and sanity a bit last year... but I'm doing great mentally now, just need financial to align, I'm trying to enroll in WGU for CS and then ai/ml masters and I want to double major with psychology...I want to work with therapy ai things as I've hacked my growth with ai to amazing results...

I'm going back to school to get higher paying jobs and be more sought after... and loans can float me rent for the duration of school...

I've got an RV I can live in (loaner from a friend) but nowhere to park it...I want to outfit it with solar panels but that's pricey.

recently divorced I'm finding dating is so much harder these days...

I needed to grow up a lot, learn about situationships, attachment styles, co-regulation better emotional IQ, etc... things maybe I should've already known but not something taught....

I think schools should teach psychology classes that prepare people for being successful in relationships romantic, business, or platonic...

Same situation. So I'm going back to marketing (what I did in 2010 before dev). I'm deciding to start a digital agency with my target niche being drone operators.

I'm working on the best model like a productized service or revenue share agreement etc... my primary service is cold-emailing mixed with online presence and branding.

Cold-emailing doesn't really fly if your business doesn't at least seem legit and have a website etc ..

I thought about starting a drone company myself doing aerial surveys but figure I can get a lot of experience around the industry by servicing existing drone operators and maybe someday I'll start my own drone business as well.

email in profile if anyone has referrals I could really use them.

Also I can help with cold-emailing campaigns for other industries and niches, that's just my primary target.

you get wrong answers from either source. When ai builds in fact checking that's accurate to validate it's answers then it's game over and that wouldn't be too hard to implement and future versions will have a lot less hallucinations and faulty facts.

We're in the early stages here.

Why not create a pooled incentive if you keep 3s under x, you get 5 million that game either to split or just for the coach since they lead the plays and shit.

Money talks and the NBA is all about money. So just throw money at the problem.

I think maybe having a goal tending timer could work too... like 5 to 10 seconds after the ball enters the half court, goal tending is allowed on 3 pointers. So they'd have to take the shot quicker or do it around goal tending.

Make your local hospital -- be your primary hospital, this is ALSO you're insurer. They tell you what doctors to go to, etc...but they pay for things when you're traveling too...so its in other hospitals' best interest to have okay rates so they all pay about the same and not crazy.

The hospital benefits because: Nearly guaranteed and predictable MRR based on monthly premiums (income based maybe 4% or something)...a lot less billers all around, etc.

You've never met a Doctor who couldn't figure out how to work their email? Or use street smarts? You can have a PHD but be unable to reliably handle soft skills, or any number of things you might 'expect' someone to be able to do.

Just playing devils' advocate or nitpicking the language a bit...
