Doesn't sound legit. Just a splash page with email. You're either messing around with a few ideas and trying to see what bites or you don't have a product.

When will we realize that as entrepreneurs, founders and creators that we have to support each other?

Let's have an open door policy when a fellow entrepreneur reaches out to us to ask for help, advise or just wants to talk to someone who can relate to what they are going through in starting, running and growing a new business or just life in general.

There are those in our community who wake up and live breathe and are motivated by a mission to make an impact in the world. Its not all about the money. The true leaders of our generation are motivated by being of service to others.

It costs no money to make a friend in your own community and let's not try to be so cut throat. We are the ones fighting giants who are failing every day to adjust their strategies to adopt to a new generation who could care less of "how it's always been done."

RIP Josh. You will be missed by everyone.

No. Stay in school. You have a better shot at success!
I have been operating at 3-4 hours sleep for over 2 years. Its not normal, it's obsessive and ridiculous. With that said, you know the person is self-motivated, and disciplined to get the shit done.

Surround yourself with these guys. You'll get far.

Very refreshing. Hacking away at the keyboard day-in-day-out is definitely a draining experience.

I enjoy talking walks once in a while and looking up at the sky. Its the little things that keep us alive.

@Patio11, I met you once on a trip to Tokyo. When/why did you decide to live in Tokyo other than the fact that your wife is Japanese? Any takeaways in terms of culture and operating a SaaS business from that region?

Thanks.

I tried to sign up, the phone verification fails. It is saying an application error has occurred.
Love it! Any plans to bundle price the requests vs per request?

Well done! clap
Here's a suggestion, as an experienced developer, why don't you take a risk on yourself and start your own company?

Do it NOW. Stop procrastinating. Unless you're not sure, then you probably have no business taking any risks. You WILL get butt hurt. Freelancing and remote work is that roller coaster ride that will make you want to barf.

Either way, good luck to you. Hurricane strength winds ahead!

The education system is designed to operate backwards on purpose. Think about it.

It's not the end. It's just the beginning. You will have to invest time into learning to code, or convincing others to code for you in exchange for cash. Keep your head up and don't let this bump in the road stop you from making your dream(s) a reality.

Dear Recruiter, You are a middleman. Your job is pointless. Your industry will go "kapoom" soon. Enterprising young people are already figuring our ways to automate you out of your job . Take me off your list. I am not a 'lead', or a 'prospective candidate'. Show me the money. That's what she said. Goodbye.
