Note that that plug is not grounded, and eu plugs that are grounded are also bidirectional, unlike us grounded plugs
Depends. German are, French are not bidirectional.
https://gifmemes.io/ Made 240 USD in December. About 9k visitors and 27k page views tracked through plausible. Spent maybe 5 hours working on the codebase in 2023, which makes a solid ((240 * 12) / 10) = 288 USD / hour. All of the money are from the watermark removal sales (10 USD). A lot of people say I could be making much more with some subscription model, but so far I'm resisting. (And the codebase is a mess :D )
Ok, I'm gonna need you to break down the motion tracking for me. Are you using MediaPipe?
The similarity function is a sum of squared differences of the pixel values.
Serious question but does anyone get any value out of these threads? Most of the time it just devolves into hundreds of comments with links to random projects hoping to get traffic. I think to make it more worthwhile people posting here please write a little about your tech stack, why you made it, what are your struggles, and tips for other founders, etc.
Also, it's pretty nice to share with the small team I'm part of. We're currently working on custom client projects and we'd like to build our product. Seeing how people do it is a nice morale boost, especially for a team that lacks experience in building.
I have a serious question to those making money and I am hoping to learn here. How did you acquire customers? We have a startup going on for 3.5 months but it is incredibly hard to acquire customers. People don't respond to email or LinkedIn. We have not tried SEO and Ads yet.
I built https://bankstatement2csv.com It's a pdf bank statement to csv converter (which seems like an increasingly popular niche for solo devs), making $550/month as of today. Marketing is challenging, and have only really had some minor success using ppc. Also, I have a fairly high churn rate (like 30%). From talking with users, it's mostly from individuals or small business owners that convert their statements from…
Since you are struggling with churn, maybe this solution is not suitable for subscriptions. Instead, it's better to charge a much higher one-time fee for occasional users who have no chance of converting to permanent subscriptions anyway? It enables you to focus on real ones. Regarding selling it as an API. In Europe, PSD2 is the standard to provide third-party read-only access to banking data. I am using this to mak…
I'm building a Zillow for Europe ( https://homestra.com ) which is focused primarily on expats and remote workers. Growth is steady and revenue slowly going up (sales cycles on this are brutal). My other side project ( https://webtastic.ai ) has become my main work now since it has grown quickly since the last time I posted on HN
Are you building this alone or with a team? Kind of impressive if alone.
It's evolved from then and now has 40+ real-world projects you can build to level up as a software engineer.

After many requests I built a few paid courses, which I'm slowly adding to around the day job.

During my previous job, when we were migrating to Kubernetes I couldn’t really find a GUI app that I liked, and most importantly, that could connect to multiple clusters simultaneously. We had 6 clusters and having to switch context constantly was annoying I ended up building one [1] to use myself, shared with a few people and they loved it. I asked if they’d pay for it and to my surprise, a lot of people said yes. I…
Coming from a very unreliable Lens, I'm looking forward to try out your app. Its already so speedy!!
