Helping students cheat on homework as an alternative to leetcode

The idea is: why do leetcode for free when you can get paid to help students do the exact same problems, helping you learn and saving them from wasting hours forcing themselves through problems they don't care about for working papers that don't matter?

Así sobrevivo :3 just an idea for people who like to eat. Maybe it feels icky to you. Para ser cristiano, primero hay que comer

Stop posting comments on HN and Reddit, become a paid writer instead

If only somebody would pay me for the stuff I write here...

You'd be surprised. Content farms are always hungry, and people just feed them crap because the pay is low. But zero is the lowest pay of all, so why not pour your heart and thoughts and citations into some $5 essay for a content farm instead? Tech is the most indemand, and these days there is a market for any niche

I used to do that on Hackhands. It was a lot more fun than dealing with the "tough customers" that would want you to log into their production server and make changes.

Oof, yeah. My idea of "tough customers" is kind of the opposite though - clients who want you to do something super specific but you don't have any access to peek in on the real server and figure out what's going on, so you have to make them this elaborate guide but can't experiment on the real thing so it's hard to give exact instructions

That's bad but it's even worse to blow up their server and it's your fault.
