I screen scrape campground registration websites and alert you when someone cancels on a date you want to go camping. Fabulously successful. Now back to my day-job. https://wanderinglabs.com

This is cool. What's the story behind taking the project over?

I had a similar idea 2 years ago [1] but haven't been pushing it forward because I thought nobody would need something like this, since it's easy to implement a cronjob in a backend server. Maybe I should revisit this! :) [1] https://cronbeats.com/

What does it mean that one has "paid off its royalties"? Do you have any description or advice for the general process for teaching a LinkedIn course?
I meant “paid off its advance through royalties”. Sorry! Everyone’s path is different, but generally speaking, if you publish enough blog posts (especially on LinkedIn), someone from a content shop will notice and ask you to write a book or create a course. Both flows are similar, but I’ve only done courses and can speak to that in detail. You propose a course. The content manager you work with decides if it fits the…
My side project currently grosses close to $1,400 per month through Patreon. I run a modded Grand Theft Auto: V roleplaying server with around 1,500 members (around 300 really dedicated MAU.)

I sell covered calls on Robinhood.
I built an iOS sex tracking app, Nice. https://nicetracker.app/ There were no sex tracking apps on the App Store that weren't focused the menstrual cycle, so I built my own. It now includes cool features such as syncing across iCloud devices, location recording, STD/STI tests, and most importantly, stats!
Wait, people have enough sex with enough different people to make this worthwhile? Damn, I'm missing out.
I make Nodewood: https://nodewood.com/ It's a SaaS starter kit/boilerplate written in Node.js and Vue 3. Made almost _exactly_ $500/month last year. Would have/should have made more with proper marketing, but I've been doing probably too much engineering instead. The next release should be the one to take it out of "beta" (honestly, an arbitrarily-chosen label, especially compared to some competitors with fewer featu…
