I can sell this as a service to people who can't even run an LLM, or don't want to cook their hardware.

Waitlist open:

"Catalog, search, preview, and generate production-ready prompts & scripts from your entire archive — on your existing hardware. Then render in the cloud."

I might be open to some agent-like behavior, access to a git repo and ticket system. Probably not my whole OS, any more than I'd give to a drunk schitzo I met on the Internet.

I see the appeal to what people have going on. But I've been using LLMs for going on a year, I was slow to adopt and wait-and-see because I didn't need it at the time (deep dive, learning python Ecosystem). I'm glad I stayed the course. I can get great results prompting these things and edit the results with care.

No more burnout than a subordinate working for hire in this mode. Things remain manageable, and I can do all the higher level Dev/Eng/Product work that drives the Coding. Which is a good new challenge to me, never got to go so high up the food chain with so much focus.

I'd put my work into that. Not the only option just an example.

Every great project takes time to build. It's possible.

I pictured scanning all my CS books for example, and I'd probably end up in a group with everyone from my class at school who did the same, for example.

I've been hacking on my vision and the money out here just isn't enough so I want limited duration tech work, 40hr+ time for a short period, or like half time on an ongoing basis. I could be fractional CTO, have been offered a Director position.

Thanks for reading.

I only post in Freelancer but sometimes I'm OPEN TO GOLDEN HANDCUFFS / REALLY REALLY GOOD W-2 :).

I'm coping by building a system to solve homelessness in general which I've concluded is impossible by getting a menial job and saving ("just get 2?" Logistics, I have answers for everything).

I'm guessing someone will eventually get me some freelance/contract work and that's how my situation will be resolved ($10k over a month would do). Just building online brands with innovative techniques and sharing results until that day. Yeehaw.

Starting an agency and am looking for initial clients. Good pricing, like minimum wage ($16.50/hr) unless you insist upon paying more. No specific niche yet, just getting the engine started up.

Dev Skills: Python Web, Javascript UI + Node, Analytics, Data Engineering, CMS like Django, Strong SQL, Strong Linux+Bash/DevOps, D3 + geo/map stuff.

Available 3 full days/wk Mo-We + evenings, Pacific Time, Early Riser. Co-working desk, private office upgrade available. Thanks.

Mostly not open source, contrary to how I have historically operated. I think I'll drop them open source as time goes on and money matters less. Kinda feels like I might make more money just open sourcing it all because of good karma tho.

It's all in Python because that's what I could get on the $200 Windows laptop I built it with, I kept it in S Mode as a challenge because I want it to run as constrained as my customer personas might experience.

Present stage is finding those personas and slicing the wares up into offers/products.

Think multi-generational family and asset data. Everything in common formats, written in simple code.

Looking for early customers or modest pre-seed investment.

I happened into the Hacker Dojo (in Mountain View) the other night after traveling in from Central Valley for the weekend and about 8 of us watched the movie glued to our seats and discussed it for another couple hours. My first thought was "this looks like Blender" when I saw the cat, and we did talk about some that resolution and information density as one layer of the movie. I had no background on the movie, had never heard of it, just happened in by chance. Massive serendipity felt tho, on a side note. Kudos to the team who did the film.

In this interview, Gints Zilbalodis, writer and director (and more!) of the film, shares how Blender was instrumental in the creation of the film."

I've left SF and landed in a college town in Sac Valley last year. Rent is $750/mo here. Been working in a kitchen for a year. Am I housed yet? Nope. Just gotta save a few thousand dollars. I have about the same amount of bills as a housed person, between gym + storage + take out food + car insurance.

But then the social aspect, my old relatives and network need to distance themselves from me. Any kind of old reference or something, non starter.

I will beat this. I only keep posting here on these threads because as you say, we span the full range of human existence. I like to think I'll use my approach as a template to help others. Get out of the big metro and into a peaceful place with cheap rent and lots of opportunity, yadda yadda.

Cheers.

Which is great because Bootstrap 2-3, whenever I used it, was pleasant.

I wasn't aware of the development timeline, thanks for the lead. Not flat is appealing.

I picked ExtJS 2.0.2 for a specific reason, seemingly rando old trusty version as base.

It does have a (configurable) fixed page size, no ability to multi-page which was kind of annoying but I started thinking of it as a feature as well.

Location: Sacramento Valley, CA + Bay Area frequent

Remote: Any

I'd like to get back into tech. Half-time would be great, seeking long term relationships / repeat customers. I have a co-working space and regular schedule at my current job. Last few roles were:

* founding engineer on a distributed ledger (block chain) startup,

* Node engineer at a chat startup,

* Java engineer at a hospitality reservation post-IPO corp.,

* R&D engineer at a series B SaaS startup (5-9 DevOp/SRE, Clojoure, Node, D3), and

* front end engineer at a pre-acquisition B2C startup.

I've been out since 2016 working customer service, kitchen and various labor jobs in the Bay Area. I've been described by a manager last Summer as "reliable and easy to work with." I have a Computer Science degree from University of Minnesota (2011, B.Sci, 3.9 major/3.6 overall GPAs).

Thanks for reading.

Something about being a homeless incel during pandemic makes me realize how sweet that life was. If only I’d advocated for myself more. Stuff like that.

Almost not homeless again. Working an undignified job, dish washer, and loving it. So much self hatred removed. I can afford a nice life with beauty, truth and goodness. Self determination. I feel they are just spoiled and their subconscience will bring about whatever they need in due time.
