A reminder that Donald Trump Jr is an advisor to both Kalshi and Polymarket (with his firm also investing in Polymarket).

Gambling (yes, this is gambling yet not subject to its industry regulations) is a public health crisis and the US government is too corrupt and intentionally ossified to react.

I paused my job search to create http://www.gtdecision.com/, a tool for fantasy sports fans to follow player news (made with the MEAN stack). The fantasy sports communities on Reddit really enjoyed it and the site now has thousands of users. I've since improved the site in accordance with user feedback - my main focus is to create products that people enjoy.

I took a break from the job search to work on http://www.gtdecision.com/, which I just released yesterday. It's a fantasy football-related web app that allows users to create customizable, player-specific Twitter feeds that pull relevant tweets from team journalists. It's built with the MEAN stack. Currently, I'm working to expand it to fantasy basketball.

I took a break from job searching the past 3 weeks to work on an interesting project (esp. for those familiar with fantasy football) built with the MEAN stack. It's not 100% complete yet, but I have a working demo up on Heroku. Please let me know if you're interested in seeing it.
