I did not like any Kubernetes UI so I built my own https://aptakube.com It went from side project to my primary job in less than 6 months. Everyone was saying that $99 was too much for “an API wrapper”, but here we are, 2 years later and with hundreds of small to enterprise companies using it :)
That UI looks nice, do you blog anywhere about tech you used to make it?
I buy & sell pixels (hats) in a video-game - Team Fortress 2. I'm currently making $10k-15k per month; I'm one of the largest sellers on the game's main third-party marketplace ( https://marketplace.tf ). Less of a side project and more of a part-time job, since it's ~4-6 hours of work per day.
I'm curious to know how much actual knowledge about the game makes compared to just being a good "trader"?

Have you heard of carapace? Its a tool to create spatial lines for drawing
Taking a look. For the past two years I've been thinking about drawing. Why it's difficult, how its possible for people like Kim Jung Gi to draw from their imagination. My theory is that it's a learned thing (as opposed to innate ability), but that it's not taught from primitives well. For example, rotating a cube is something that you cannot really find an explanation for. I think the actual difficulty in drawing (r…
Drawing from model is about being the kind of character that enjoys spending hours tweaking at tiny details and measuring measuring measuring. Anybody willing to sit 3 hours in front of the model every day can learn it, if he understands that he must measure.
Drawing from imagination like Kim Jung Gi on the other hand is about doing that every day most of the day since you were a little kid, and you probably need an innate ability to boot (and that might be some form of obsessive-compulsive disorder / autism...).
https://blog.labsbell.com/blog/SkippiesPart2 selling 4.99$ shoes, strangely fun to see the inner workings of ecommerce. I dont understand how amazon sellers make any money.
For you a healthy margin might be 3$-6$, for others they're happy with 1$... and Amazon puts pressure for cheaper and cheaper prices to make their users happy, but they refuse to cut their margins :P
I made an AI chatbot for OnlyFans models. Their fans can speak to "them" via a third party messaging app. It's currently pulling ~15k USD MRR. I built my own GPU infra for inference and I run Llama 3 with a fewshot prompting to get the model to respond like a given OF model, typically using their actual DMs with fans. I don't have a website for obvious reasons, but if you're in the biz you've no doubt heard about my…
Please forgive my ignorance, but what are the obvious reasons for you not having a website?
I build simple speech shadowing exercises that help people train for IELTS Speaking. The project makes more than $500/month.
Made https://meeteffective.com/ for useful 1 on 1 meetings. Not charging for it though right now

Feels awkward to me.

Could be more organic?

Any architecture advice on making receiving payments from small-to-medium businesses streamlined? Struggling on how to go from an employee trying the free demo to their company paying that employee’s subscription… like no PO request nonsense, is there a “master” account you bill and they dole out the seats?
Is that because you don't want to provide a product in advance of payment or just the overhead of creation/tracking?
I built custom electric cars, and now I am sharing my knowledge for free in a knowledge base and in a YouTube series: https://foxev.io/batteries https://youtube.com/@foxev-content I hope this helps someone :) My knowledge is EV and renewable energy knowledge from first principles and for an open source tool. https://openinverter.org lets you re-purpose the drivetrain from any EV, like Toyota Prius or Tesla Model S an…
Nice work!
