    Computer Code Is Dead. What's Next?

    HOT! 
    ok I don't want to get bogged down in some specific scenarios here because I don't want to contribute the time. there are a million cases, some of which I already cited, where there will be a need for software engineers. I'm not talking about someone creating Airbnb with no code and competing...

    Computer Code Is Dead. What's Next?

    HOT! 
    That's what I thought about HTML/CSS and graphic design until SquareSpace, Shopify and Canva dropped. The barriers will drop. That doesn't mean some other level of complexity won't arise. Blockchain apps, IOT protocols, Fintech, VR, etc. will keep digital workers busy. I'm not saying the...

    Right on, IDK how much something like that costs, but it seems like it wouldn't take a huge sum of money, and once you get a process down you can pay some young kids to manage the kitchen and ops, since the location and the environment are so nice. Pretty soon, you could have several of these...

    I agree with the premise. I can buy native React templates for a variety of common apps (dating, coffee shop, etc.) that require some intermediate skills to implement, but we're definitely making progress towards lowering the bar of entry for digital assets. These React templates are what...

    Would you work a job that you loved to do? An alternative to the fastlane

    MINDSET 
    Also, I was thinking about my grandmother the other day. She had a small house, a garden, a TV and stereo, and a little studio that she used to make quilts. She had a lot of spare time to engage in her hobbies, or just listen to the cars pass by on wet streets during summer rains. She had...

    I started a business in 2008, got fairly successful, had a few people working for me, and then fell on some hard times. I was dead broke in 2016 and it took me a year to get back on my feet. I ended up taking a slowlane job. Mostly because I wasn't ready to start a new business from zero and...

    What's next is what's always next. Making people's lives a bit happier. Ease suffering. Helping them overcome grief. Giving them something to smile about. Solving a complex problem for them.

    That Charles Duhigg book is really great for transforming habits. Highly recommend it. I believe it's called "The Power of Habit"

    The wolf is at the door. There are several people on this very forum that provide classes that quickly help you build skills and start making money in as little as 90 days. Mostly digital services. In 2008 I lost my job and I spent my first two months learning Joomla and Wordpress. I made 6,000...

    What do you think of dreams/dreaming?

    HEALTH 
    1. I average 2 dreams per night, if not more. Also no caffeine or stimulants. I find that I dream more when I'm "clean." 2. They are weird. At first they seemed silly, but then I started reading Jung, and now I'm actually beginning to think that my subconscious is telling me things. Most are...

    Joe Dominguez emphasized that a person should take time to define "enough." What that means is different for every person, but a person needs to define that, because it's the sweet spot between fulfillment and more headaches and bills.

    I just know that it fits in my front pocket and I don't ever think about it or struggle with jamming it into a piece of clothing. I also don't watch videos or play games on it, so it's perfect for me.

    I was treading water for close to 2 years and couldn't buy a win. As I read your post, I thought about two epiphanies I had: 1. Find someone to help. The Dalai Lama often says something like, "warm heart, calm mind, help others." When I focused on that, the money came. The money always seems to...
