A 2-4 player casual card game that's similar to Exploding Kittens. It'll be free-to-play on mobile and I've been focusing more on marketing these days (mostly running ads, creating short form content, and reaching out to influencers).
I'm using Unity for the front-end, and Node.js (just because I'm already familiar with it in terms of dev + liveops) for the gameservers.
I would also strongly recommend doing a sport that you enjoy whether it be basketball, volleyball, boxing, muay thai, etc. If you enjoy the sport and want to excel on it, you will need to be fit, and it'll give you extra motivation to lose weight if it'll help you become better at something you love doing.
Hi, I started this project with the idea to clone d-id and create an alternative. As you can see, the video generated is not as good as d-id, and currently looking for feedback and suggestions on what technology I can use to have better video output (natural head movement, etc.) or on what direction you think I should take this. I wrote a more detailed writeup of what I learned in this blogpost...
A Talking Avatar AI generator similar to d-id. Worked on it for 2 months but I have problems adding natural head movement to the speaker. About 100 users so far but 0 revenue. Very low traffic (like 10-20 users/day). Not sure where to go next, at moment trying to focus more on marketing and getting feedback

I'm available for part-time or full-time contract work. 8+ years experience. I started my career with Ruby on Rails dev work, but has been doing a lot more Node.js the past couple of years. I've built and published native mobile apps (Swift/Java) and also have made multiplayer games both in browser and mobile (Unity). I can easily dive into large codebases and I have pragmatic approach to programming, often choosing simpler solutions, and avoiding technical debt. Looking to work with teams or founders where I can be of value.

- Augmenting Test Infrastructure - You might lack resources/time to add tests, and are currently focusing on features. I can help implement integration tests for complex micro-services, or UI tests for your react/react-native codebase.
- React/React-Native work - I've worked on React.js projects before and also have native iOS/Android experience.
- Weird Problems/Offshoot tasks - Ones that no-one else would like to do or have trouble doing. Perhaps it involves migrating old legacy software and library dependencies makes it a pain to migrate.
- Crypto related work - I've done small projects involving ethereum, nano (raiblocks) such as web-wallets.
- Mentorship - I've mentored junior developers in the past, and have also helped friends who are new to coding.
I think blockchain might be a good use case for this. Cencorship resistant, decentralized review, not controlled by a single company, and anyone can contribute, and see the reviews (i.e via browser extension). And everyone is rewarded by currency when they provide a review. Just not sure how to prevent spam, and deal with people gaming the system. Perhaps a staking system could be introduced wherein a user would lose their stake if the review proved to be inauthentic (proving it comes with its own problems). Anyway, these are just some of things I've been pondering about before.
These days, I'm learning React/React-Native to build a marketplace that connects photographers with people who want better dating photos.
4. For beijing, checkout Tsinghua x-lab. Last time, I just walked in. Talked to a founder randomly, and got introduced to interesting tech spots i should checkout, as well as getting pitched on his startup :) They also organize different events from time to time.
Checkout Garage Cafe (not sure if its still open)
Meetup.com has some tech meetups or checkout http://www.huodongxing.com/events?type=0&show=list&tag=%E5%8... which lists startup events in beijing
5. Try out their dating apps (tantan) or even tinder to meet people even just as friends.
Stay at hostels and make some new friends.
Go to internet cafe - they call it (网吧 ). You get see how different it is when it comes to chinese gaming (you need qq or wechat), although some games require a national ID to play. In this case, may be better to bring along local friend.
