As someone who has been watching your content for a couple of months now, I really wish you had a more direct approach to content. The bits and jokes are not easy to follow most of the time and the visuals most of the time are not presenting the video coherently.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

If I don't get something done in 8 hours it just means I keep working until it's done, or you lose your job, and when you're solving large logic and system problems you don't always get to wrap up at 5pm. People think being a SWE is some cushy gig, and I"m sure there are certain people who have less stressful enviroments, but a lot of us are under deadlines that were made with sh**** guesses and then we get extra work that isn't accounted for, basically the grass isn't always greener on the other side and I can understand this kind of post.

Idk if this helps. Literally nothing matters in the grand scheme of things, so you can do whatever you please. No rules matter at all, it makes little sense to live in such a chaotic world with rules; social expectations and morals are agreed on but are largely irrelevant. So then, isn’t it better to die doing what you believe in, instead trying to live like others. This hot (for some, not for me) take is what I’ve been trying to really accept and live by, it doesn’t address many issues, but serves as a reminder nonetheless

In trying to build a side hustle myself, the biggest eye opening moment was when I realised that the problem matters. It might be a good business opportunity / validated by competition and you can do it. However if you don't love the problem it will suck. As founder spending countless hours building, validating, marketing it will eventually lead to a place where one just want to quit and go back to normal job. At that moment the biggest motivator is - "darn I want to solve this problem for MYSELF". And then you keep going even if there are no customers, no revenue, etc... Money is a very poor motivator in the long term.

Been in the realm of entrepreneurship for only a few months myself. There are plenty of themes I've picked up on including scalability, leveraging other people's time and money, and the careful consideration and/or use of debt...but if I'm strictly honest the critical tipping point was learning from other people who've already been successful at what I want to do. End of the day, I can't build a business like Google without help and seeking out mentorship from people who have already demonstrated profit in a given business structure. Was very lucky to come across a group of entrepreneurs who were willing to help me build and scale my own side hustles. Made all the difference in helping me start a business I would have never been able to before.

Great video. Awesome, straight-to-the-point advice. There is just one point I disagree with: "people will only sign up for a mailing list if they really want the product" (paraphrasing). Soooo many people I know sign up for every little thing without much thought and their inbox is crammed to the brim with junk mail that they never get to. Usually, there is something offered free (e.g., free ebook), but often it is just for updates on things that they are vaguely interested in. I think a lot of mailing lists, wishlists, etc. share this problem. This is why you have cases like on Steam where 100,000 people wishlist a game and only 10 buy it. Don't underestimate how impulsive and undiscerning a lot of people are.

I work in branding and if it can help, try to see what your competitors do and change one of these aspects: Who (target market), When (basically the moment they use your service, connects to their need), Where (maybe you could target a specific nation that doesn’t have that service yet), How (a different experience matters even if the result is the same), What (that’s just offering something new or adding onto something) and lastly Why (this is tough, but you could bet on a moral/ethical aspect) You really just need to stand out 1/8 of an inch, good luck!

I used to think like this, until I've pivoted into making side projects just for learning. Honestly it was a refreshing view, I learn way more efficiently, don't have the stress to be unique/marketable and I get to explore my creativity with no barriers. Shortly after I became a SWE I've lost that extra fire I used to have for Programming, but I realized I didn't lose it at all, I just don't like "Corporate Programming" and making projects in the hopes of making them profitable just added more to this feeling I had. I didn't give up on making a side-project profitable but I think it's not a good time for me right now to go in that direction, it's a goal of mine but I'm not pushing it at this stage.

I think the big problem with the idea was "Why would anybody want to clone any one person's voice?" It's an incredible niche market, even if you're Mark Hamill or Morgan Freeman. What you need to expand to, is letting other people licence out their voice on your site. (And that makes your project a bazzillion times more complicated, but that'll be the idea that succeeds in some form eventually.)

​@@rachelortiz3585trading is easier with proper guidance, especially from a professional, Newbies who are not aware of how crypto truly works and wish to make profits from it, I would advise to invest with a professional like Jeffrey kathryn, It helps secure and minimize the possibilities of losses.

@ngochunglongnguyen4523 11 місяців тому
That's a terrible idea. Even the code generated by AI need validated. Unless there is a system for AI built like a human team for building and testing (with real set of human validation data). I doubt it will be successful. AI is not an omniscient tool. It's confident but doesn't know where it's wrong unless you test its result and give the feedback.

Dude your videos are awesome. From a UX design (my job) point of view you covered the lean strategy very straightforward. If I were in your shoes I would check out how to talk to your paid / qualified leads from your community to get more insights. Maybe fiver can help you with something quick in that direction. The improvement point you mentioned are on the spot. You could also use some free tools to get some data on that like hotjar or maze to quickly prototype and test new features. Hope you (and the awesome community) have a wonderful week!

When you said "Get a whole bunch of people to sign up for it before you even build it" reminded me of what my friends used to joke about with game development. We were like, let's make the strategy guide first and sell it. That way people can have an indepth guide on what they are buying. We decided we were being too ambitious when we went to so far to say make the strategy guide for the DLC of the game before any of creating the game, DLC or original strategy guide.

The reusable code argument at the end is probably one of the best reward that comes out of all my unfinished repos. I find myself having a bunch of unrelated projects opened when working on a new project just so I have this massive collection of battle-tested code with the edge cases already figured out. Sometimes, when I'm unsure if I like an idea before I even start, I just say "ehhh, it'll be good for more reusable code reference, DEW IT" 😅
