I'm going to learn to ship things. I can build a full SaaS in 5 days using Claude so there is no excuse for me not to ship.
I've been out of work 2 years, had to do a GoFundMe just to survive the winter, and I raised 5k which gave me a runway to get off Uber and Lyft and focus on finding clients to build for add with chatGPT I think I'm in the verge of figuring this freelance thing out ..
other things to learn: I want to get AWS certified and work on other certifications like Service Now... or sales force...
I'm wanting a digital agency but need to figure out the sales aspect.
I’m a full-stack developer focusing on Laravel + Vue or livewire and AI automation for small businesses. 12+ years building production apps, internal tools, and integrations.
Recent work includes:
– SaaS dashboards and internal CRM systems
– AI-powered automations (agent workflows, lead scoring, data extraction)
– React Native mobile apps (Expo)
– Custom APIs, OAuth, payment integration
– Landing pages + onboarding flows
Looking for contract or part-time work. I ship fast, communicate clearly, and handle the full lifecycle from idea → architecture → deployment.
I drive for Uber sometimes I use an app where it'll automatically take an Uber and turn off Lyft and door dash.. when it meets a filter... for example: $1 per mile, 25 per hour avg, and over $5 minimum...
you can manually accept ones less than the filter... but it pops up a thing with all this data so you can make a decision whether it's worth it and while driving it's nice it turns the rest off so you don't have bad stats when they send you an offer and you don't take it because you couldn't turn it off yet....
it's $18 per month but worth every penny!
plus I just hit 1 button to login to every service...

does this include if the AI can devise new components and use drones and things essentially to build a new iteration of itself more capable to compute a thing and keep repeating this going out into the universe as needed for resources and using von Neumann probes.. etc?
Currently homeless, driving Uber and Lyft. I've fixed my mental health after a shit storm of life events, mostly using AI as therapist.
I'm going back to school soon for psychology (figure financial aid can also pay room and board).
I'm wanting to build a mobile journal app with a bunch of AI guided 'games' to help learn DBT skills or work out trauma or do Shadow work or just guided CBT for a purpose.
I've changed my MBTI from intp-t to enfp-a...(I find I revert sometimes when I don't feel safe)... in other words I've become a very outgoing people person at least I'm a lot less afraid in social situations or to act like a fool on the dance floor... etc...
I also want to write a book and do videos on hacking your brain using AI... nobody seems to be doing this... there's a lot of potential for this niche I think.
I fixed hobbies, depression, and social life, all that's left is physical and financial and those are kind of easy when emotions are in check.
it's got PHP and tooling and Arch Linux it's just what I'm comfortable with but I've got a MacBook (someone gifted me one from this thread) so yeah I'll definitely be using that for freelancing soon.
someone on here bought me a used MacBook. so yeah going to try freelancing that. I'll still do Uber (it's helped my mental health l but I don't want to rely on it and I want to save wear and tear on car so maybe just Saturdays...
inheritance, I'm hoping in the next month. With that I'd find a roommate situation for like $600 (average)... then work on freelancing, etc.
My depression is I believe in remission and I've built resiliency skills. I might be getting a sales job soon, selling astroturfing and rock scaping to homeowners.
It's door to door sales but the pay is good if I can actually set appointments. Plus I'm working on overcoming rejection sensitivity and overthinking, I think sales could help with that..
I guess that's what I'm used to and... my brain isn't great at 9 to 5 work, my best code is written late at night. I'm probably 60 percent as productive when I have to work a rigid schedule.
I was making 50 per hour doing freelance programming two years ago but I've had trouble finding clients and then I didn't have a place to work from, making it even harder. That's my biggest obstacle. I've got 10+years experience with PHP, JavaScript, laravel. etc...
I've got 10 years experience with laravel, lots of PHP, JavaScript, vue, react, MySQL, Python etc...i just don't have a computer unless I can find a place to set up my desktop... that's my biggest hurdle.
I only have a desktop. I thought about getting office space from the chamber of commerce for 250 per month... and I can use their fridge to save money on food (Greek yogurt, Jimmy Dean sandwiches, and string cheese is all I need)...
you sound like a person I used to date who my therapist says is definitely a clinical narcissist... love bombing, devaluation, isolating from family members, transactional and conditional, and discard.
edit: I ask because I used to have the domain zvive and use that username... so a little personal for the user to use zvive2.
