    The AI Entrepreneurship thread. Code AI? Interested in AI? Data Science? Machine Learning?

    HOT! 
    Following! I'm a software engineer, mainly app developer, but interested on entering AI-ML field because it sounds fun. I'm also taking the coursera deep learning courses, and looking into kaggle.com, it seems a pretty well know site for data science-ML practitioners. And always thinking on how...

    Greetings from Argentina!! And looking for advice!

    INTRO 
    Not really, but I would say is not simple, you can start with udemy courses, but is really complex if you want to become good and make good money. I would say is doable to focus three to six months to learn as much as you can with multiple courses on multiple topics, and making prototypes of...

    Greetings from Argentina!! And looking for advice!

    INTRO 
    Hi neighbour! I'm from Chile, I'm a software engineer, and I had worked for USA and Europe companies/startups through Upwork, I can confirm the pay is good, and as our cost of living is less than those countries, they pay less, but is pretty good for us, so win-win. The competition is tough, but...

    Create a phone app.

    I had found a couple of great app developers on the past on Upwork. But I know about app development, so I was managing the stuff, even overseeing technical stuff. So I would recommend that if you really want to follow that path, at least try to do a simple app by yourself, Udemy courses are...

    Could I realistically get freelance Android development gigs after just a few months of learning?

    SIDE HUSTLE FTE 
    I had been working on Android development for the past 6 years, with a computer science degree. To objectively answer your questions: Yes Most likely no. You don't need a degree to make good Android apps, all the information is on the docs, youtube, udemy, the internet. But you need to show...

    Growing a Directory Website with a Certain Audience (read details)

    aah classic chicken and the egg dilemma. I'm making a marketplace too, and had the similar problem, not easy though. I'm still growing the "consumers" side. But if it's useful to you, I will explain what I did: - I made a basic landing page explaining the benefits of my product, the landing...

    The Ultimate Guide On What Books To Read

    NOTABLE! 
    Great list! I already saved many books on the to-read list. I just want to recommend some coding books, these are programing-language-agnostic books, pretty useful for software engineering and product manager perspective. The Pragmatic Programmer: From Journeyman to Master Clean Code The...

    ¿How to follow? App business

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Thanks for the answers guys @Fox That's an interesting business model, the problem I see with my market is that here at least there are no many plays, you can have 10 in one month, so there is not too much competition to be in the top of the list. @jman3398 I'm planning to do that some time...

    Hi fastlaners! I've been a member of this forum for some months and I'm building an app business. I would really appreciate some suggestions on how to follow. I have an app for Android/iPhone that shows listings of theater plays in my country, all the info is retrieved from a server and is...

    Some Fastlane Porn

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Holyshit man, you got me with just the first picture. That's another world, it reminds me of the book "Losing my virginity" from Richard Branson, there he talks about his house in Africa. I'm just starting this journey to freedom, and I see that so unreal and far away. This is going to sound...

    Introducing myself and my latest App

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I have an app for movies showtimes on my country. One good optimization I did was to add the name of my country at the end of the app name. First it was just "[name of the app]", then "[name of the app] - [country]" and boom! went to number one in days. But my app is very locale, I don't know if...

    I'm a heavy user of Chromecast, I think is one of my best purchases I've made. I don't have a TV, just a cool extra monitor with the Chromcast on the HDMI port. I used to watch Netflix, all long youtube videos, like lectures or that stuff, also to stream music videos. Also you can stream tabs...

    Launched my first ANDROID APP

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Hi man, I downloaded your app and the first thing I see is that I'm forced to sign up in your system to see something, that is bad UX, as a feedback, you should let your users see the content without registering, you can deactivate some features to the "guest users". Also, what is your plan...

    Do mobile apps violate the NECST principles?

    SAAS / APPS WEB/DIGITAL 
    I, as an app developer myself, would say yes, they violate CENTS, particularly the N and the C. I would not rely on them for a Fastlane business, but yes for an awesome passive income. Also I think the best idea is try to create a service around the app.
