For not work, I want to improve my oil painting and my drawing skills! I got a Pi this year and want to use it to dabble in digital sculpture.
Growth hacking. I'd like to learn how to sell a SaaS product[1] to businesses. I'd also like to explore content strategy and marketing. As a software developer joining a new 2-person startup, this is uncharted territory for me. Looking forward to the experience. [1] https://www.metriculator.com
Looks neat. It's also worth you looking at CES (Customer Experience Score). CES feeds into NPS... eg NPS is a result of lots of CES's, so to improve NPS you actually need to look at the core issue(s) that may be impacting it. You might be able to build CES into your offering as well.
Once we have the entire workflow for NPS worked out, we can look at customizable surveys and other survey types.

I have a hard time breaking into the consulting/freelancing world. I really like the idea of working part-time during off hours for extra cash, but it's proven to be quite difficult for me. I think part of it is that I'm not loud enough, and I think it comes from being an introvert. I'm confident, I'm not shy, and I know I'm skilled enough to work on lots of stuff, but when it comes to marketing myself, networking, s…
Have you tried any of the online freelance market places, like toptal, upwork, peopleperhour..etc ?
I've seen advice like, "If you charge high instead of trying to compete with low bidders, you'll be taken seriously," but then there's the issue of having 0 clients/reviews/ratings, which make it hard to command a high rate.
I did have one client on Codementor.io! He didn't give me a review, though, even though we had three sessions and he seemed to be super happy with my help :/
Category theory and some advanced Haskell I feel that such knowledge is eternal. It won't be obsolete in 2027. ReactJS on the other hand ...

I'm very, very, very open to suggestions... especially if they're presented from the ground up, and in lots of detail. I'm also quite open to material that can be read rather than watched.
And I also want to learn how to play the Stone Roses' I Am the Resurrection on guitar.
Happy New year, hackers!
1. Haskell: all the cool kids are doing it, and I like its formalism
2. Hy: I write a lot of python, and really like the idea of working with familiar data structures.

Counterpoint: ReactJS solves a lot of engineers' problems in a clean and elegant way. Even if it goes away, the ideas behind it will continue to be good ones. There's nothing wrong with Haskell, but I think that a lot of people mythologize it because it's not used by many people and has an air of academia. A lot of people do the opposite to ReactJS because it's a popular framework that a lot of people use. It has no…
