I think its a combination of both. I got into it at the right time and right place, but I also figured out how to do it rather easily. And I know what i'm doing. I program every day for a YC company in SF with about 40 employees. If I was just faking it, it would have come out by now, imo.

I wrote a thing about that. I'm self taught. Coming from a theatre background. I now make almost 100k after 1 year. I started learning last september. April I got an internship, and in September I got hired full time.

this person is obviously full of shit. nobody becomes a trans woman to receive "better treatment."

I use Simple this way, even though their goals are meant for long term saving more so than budgeting, I use it for my 'envelope budgeting system'

I'd actually return to my first love: theatre. I've been wanting to do some playwriting again, but i'm too busy paying the bills right now. I taught myself how to program so I could actually pay the bills, but I'd love to be writing again.

from my understanding is the actual owner is never there, just rents it out all the time, and its a constant thing with different people using the space. they tried contacting airbnb, to get ahold of the owner - but to no results.

pretty heartbreaking piece about an sf resident and her family who have made the decision to move away from the city - both by pricing, but also by a bad airbnb neighbor.
