I enjoy building little SaaS side hustles that one day (I can dream) might make me a couple of grand, but I don’t enjoy writing 20+ CRUD controllers, with matching validation, and HTML forms. I’m probably a bit neurospicy, and I have a young family, but before LLMs came along I might “finish” one SaaS every couple of years. I’ve been able to complete 3 so far this year. It’s a wild uptick in productivity.
I’m well aware of the dangers that come with it too, but having been in the mines churning out this code for the last couple of decades I feel well versed in what to prompt for, just as I would with a keen yet naive junior engineer. I’d also argue that LLMs are much better at enforcing a particular style on the code base. I feel strongly that with an opinionated framework, in a relatively simple language, solving repetitive simple problems - you’ll have a great time with LLMs and you’ll be more productive than ever.
The problems arise when we delegate jobs like writing READMEs or tests (the boring stuff, right?) without really getting into the weeds.
In this case, it was actually a salary of £50,550 - £57,500, so total compensation of around £75k (circa $95k), as the pension scheme is in the order of 30% of your salary. Then there's the usual US vs UK medical cover and vacation allowances.
It's still a way off, but the gap is smaller than you think when you crunch all of the other benefits into a single number.
Perhaps you should change your strategy? Personally, I use myname+website@gmail.com as then I'll know the source, when I find my email address has been sold to a 3rf party
You could argue that IRC fits in the category of ephemeral platforms, but most large communities provide some form of indexable log of the conversations
I could've built it into my existing platform, but fancied doing something different - and that's how I ended up with Bauns.
I'd rather have less strawberries, that are more expensive, than have strawberries picked by someone who died as a result of contracting COVID-19 in a field whilst they were picking strawberries to earn money to feed themselves/their family.
