    How do I make money off my Programming Skills?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    The embedded space is most likely where these kind of low-level programming skills would be in demand. Stuff like machine control, telecom, building automation. Or perhaps writing device drivers for specialized hardware. The trick is finding someone who needs this kind of work done. I have...

    Not becoming a software or tech consultant

    FTE 
    I feel the same about dealing with business owners instead of large enterprise. My favorite projects were the ones we did for small or medium size businesses. They were only interested in getting things done, and we helped them do that efficiently.

    Not becoming a software or tech consultant

    FTE 
    After a few years of personal turmoil, life brings me back to the forum again. Repeated instances of being assigned projects that are doomed to failure have finally pushed me over the edge - it's time for me to shift my focus on the future. I'm now faced with the same question that everyone...

    The Worldwide C0VlD-19 Coronavirus Pandemic Discussion Thread...

    HOT! 
    Mandatory vaccinations are where I drew the line in the sand a long time ago. Bill Gates? Hell no. If the guy had his way, we'd all be force-vaxinated, chip-implanted, and you'd be thrown in jail for using anything other than Windows.

    Duct tape and bailing wire: business software

    Many years ago, I worked with a company that made and sold machine tools (lathe and mill machines). This was a smallish company, perhaps 20 or so employees. My project there was to take a bunch of software packages they were using and attempt to make them work together. In the end, we wound up...

    Have we finally decided to retire?

    PEOPLE 
    I'd get bored. My Wife talks about moving to the Philippines when we retire, and I keep thinking about what kind of business I could start there.

    Where do you work from? Home vs Office

    I work from home, but the room I am using doesn't have a door, it used to be a 'sitting room' in the front of the house. It's only a problem during the summer when the kids are on vacation from school. Installing a door opens up a bunch of problems with airflow - I'd cook in the summer if I...

    Cross Platform Progressive Web Apps

    I have been exploring this as well. I currently have a web app that is optimized for mobile use. My app depends heavily on access to a database, so the offline functionality of PWA isn't as interesting to me as the ability to have push notifications and for it to easily appear on the user's...

    Greetings from Philippines

    INTRO 
    Welcome to the forum! There is a lot of information here, it will take you a while to read and absorb everything. As for your web development agency, the market is quite crowded and you really need to do something to set yourself apart from thousands of others doing the same thing. Are you...

    What was your first car?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I once had a Mitsubishi pickup truck like this. The most memorable moment was one time a friend closed the passenger side door: the glass fell off the tracks down inside the door, and the broken pieces showered down onto the ground through the rusted-out bottom.

    Lex DeVille's 2019-22 Step-By-Step Upwork Tutorial for Brokeass Bootstrap Beginners Who Need Cash Now!

    NOTABLE! SIDE HUSTLE 
    My profile was approved immediately, but I've got to figure out what my niche is going to be. I've been jack-of-all-trades for many years, except in one area (legacy systems migration) but there doesn't seem to be much demand for that specialty on Upwork.

    Lex DeVille's 2019-22 Step-By-Step Upwork Tutorial for Brokeass Bootstrap Beginners Who Need Cash Now!

    NOTABLE! SIDE HUSTLE 
    This is awesome, I've been thinking about this for a while. Thanks Lex! Here's what I've come up with: Why are you doing this? I need to raise capital to fund a business I'm starting, and eliminate some debt to lower my living expenses. Describe your endgame: Use the capital, experience I...

    What Are Your Self-Imposed Handicaps & Limitations?

    One of mine would be that I can't be good at design. Whether it's picking the right color for painting some walls, choosing furniture, or making a template for a web site, I'm not the right person for that task. The truth is I've never spent much time learning those skills, I've always been...

    How to set up multinational business?

    The answers to your questions are going to vary wildly depending on what country these workers are located in due to labor laws and regulations on foreign ownership and investment. For decades, IT stuff has been outsourced to India (this seems to be shifting to SE Asia). Perhaps you can look...
