i feel you brother.
I'm on a worse situation, wife has disabilities, father has cancer, I have glaucoma and dual labrum tear. My job is at risk and I've been building apps and SaaS tools for a year and couldn't make any money.
i CAN'T even post my new tool here. my x account got suspended; my comments got permanently banned on Reddit. my posts got removed from Reddit.
I feel you, brother.
This is what I can tell you, only fact: Right now in China, companies big or small, are all pushing AI deployment and AI tools build. The result - very obvious people got redundant, including these were involved in all the AI deployment. Some engineers posted online with fear like " i'm asked to build AI tools which i know I'll be replaced, but i have no choice." Believe me, AI changed the world, in a very devastating way.
Clearly it's a great pain for me - i built many things and no money to do marketing or anything. Even my posts on Reddit got banned or removed...X account got suspended...so, what's the way out? Where's the hope? It's been too difficult.
AI works for me magically..better than magic...
Realistically, no need. Just a fact, in China right now, front end engineers or programmers can't find jobs....
Doesn't matter, the title means nothing. What you can do does. If you can do something, does it matter what your title is?
i ONCE had the same idea. but I didn't take action because of legal considerations - at least in NZ, such thing still requires legal process, not just a website.
None of these matters.. job market decides if you'll have a job. Layoff is happening everywhere, thanks to AI these days and it'll get worse. So it doesnt matter anymore.
