I feel like an opt-in model built on AGPL code should output AGPL code.

I'd put my work into that. Not the only option just an example.

Every great project takes time to build. It's possible.


That's how I pictured it, users scan all the bar codes they have access to and it builds similarity profiles.

I pictured scanning all my CS books for example, and I'd probably end up in a group with everyone from my class at school who did the same, for example.

I've been hacking on my vision and the money out here just isn't enough so I want limited duration tech work, 40hr+ time for a short period, or like half time on an ongoing basis. I could be fractional CTO, have been offered a Director position.

Thanks for reading.


Yes, please.

I only post in Freelancer but sometimes I'm OPEN TO GOLDEN HANDCUFFS / REALLY REALLY GOOD W-2 :).


Underemployed since 2017, working menial jobs and homeless since mid-'18, not even trying to get a tech job because I can't present myself as middle class.

I'm coping by building a system to solve homelessness in general which I've concluded is impossible by getting a menial job and saving ("just get 2?" Logistics, I have answers for everything).

I'm guessing someone will eventually get me some freelance/contract work and that's how my situation will be resolved ($10k over a month would do). Just building online brands with innovative techniques and sharing results until that day. Yeehaw.

Dev Skills: Python Web, Javascript UI + Node, Analytics, Data Engineering, CMS like Django, Strong SQL, Strong Linux+Bash/DevOps, D3 + geo/map stuff.

Available 3 full days/wk Mo-We + evenings, Pacific Time, Early Riser. Co-working desk, private office upgrade available. Thanks.

Building a tool chest of software for my own needs. IT for Sovereigns.

Mostly not open source, contrary to how I have historically operated. I think I'll drop them open source as time goes on and money matters less. Kinda feels like I might make more money just open sourcing it all because of good karma tho.

It's all in Python because that's what I could get on the $200 Windows laptop I built it with, I kept it in S Mode as a challenge because I want it to run as constrained as my customer personas might experience.

Present stage is finding those personas and slicing the wares up into offers/products.


Building a suite of apps and a piece of hardware for my Sovereign IT stack. CarPuter and Daily Driver App Club (dailydriverapps.com).

Think multi-generational family and asset data. Everything in common formats, written in simple code.

Looking for early customers or modest pre-seed investment.


Yes. Simply put, Software Engineering is Programming over time. As Calculus is to Algebra.


I get what you mean but calculus and algebra are quite distinct branches of mathematics..


And the argument is that software engineering is quite distinct from coding.


No, he said software engineering is just programming over time, so the two are not distinct at all.


Well earned. Best overall movie since Napoleon Dynamite.

I happened into the Hacker Dojo (in Mountain View) the other night after traveling in from Central Valley for the weekend and about 8 of us watched the movie glued to our seats and discussed it for another couple hours. My first thought was "this looks like Blender" when I saw the cat, and we did talk about some that resolution and information density as one layer of the movie. I had no background on the movie, had never heard of it, just happened in by chance. Massive serendipity felt tho, on a side note. Kudos to the team who did the film.
