It's funny that most of my peers don't even think about that, or even a life with less work.
The holiday season is so nice for gathering family and people who will soon move to another plane, but we have a limited time to enjoy all this because of a foolish convention that was invented where we must keep the gears turning 9-5.
It's a shame we didn't know how to appreciate the gift of life as we could have.
When we go to industry or "the real world", it's as if we are forced to unlearn all good practices
Obs: Don't wanna sound a douche here but I can't help but notice that they're talking about accuracy citing Wikipedia.
Society needs to discuss this urgently.
That's why I always say: we ourselves have made the world an impossible place to live in. We've created an unbearable society.
Just as the internet and social media helped me gain enough exposure to make a living DJing and producing music, providing a decent life for my family, the intense competition for attention on social media, exacerbated by the pandemic, made continuing in this profession unfeasible, largely due to my somewhat introverted personality. Bandcamp wasn't really my thing but I had some friends that made a decent money out of it.
Anyway, I wish the best of luck to those still trying to make a living from music in this new era.
I'm unhappy with my current job, but at least I can pay the bills.
Dope idea!
I always thought about a product like that in my area but the "features" you mentioned (soil/climate conditions monitoring) are pretty simple, so I wonder if you're still able of finding a market (fit) for products like that, that "anyone" could build. Are you able to find customers, which I assume is B2B?
I have a degree in engineering, took two statistics courses that basically used high school level math.
Nowadays, I work with data analysis, using SQL and Python. And I would like to know which statistical approach you guys think are most suitable for the real world, like how to test hypothesis etc?
that's why in tropical countries people should aim for photothermical systems instead, collecting sun energy with parabolical mirrors heating up water, moving steam engine thus generating energy

I hope he has at least a vague idea of how many lives he changed because of this feature/philosophy/idea and game.
Here's someone who has lightly lived off their passion.
First and foremost, look up the origin of the word "passion" if you're not familiar with it. You'll be surprised by its original meaning.
Living off something you love and that lights up your eyes doesn’t take months, it takes years, many years. In the initial years, you have to fight against all possible forces, starting with your own imposter syndrome, the lack of money (if you’re not from a wealthy family), and then there’s the phase of convincing everyone around you who doesn’t believe in your "talent" - that is if you come from a culture that needs the validation of others to feel good. Besides that, you still have to deal with the sales and marketing part. It’s not enough to be talented, it’s not enough to do your job well, there are still many variables. All of this doesn’t get resolved in months (maybe very, very lucky people manage to turn their passion into success in months, but that should be less than 1% of the entire sample). Anyway, I could spend many hours talking about this topic that I experienced firsthand for 7 years and was forced to switch to the corporate world because of the pandemic.
I just got hired by a company that was looking for a data product leader.
I only have 3 years of experience in data analysis, but the owner of the company thinks I am extremely capable of leading the company's data front.
Since I'm not attached to titles, concepts, and job definitions, I obviously accepted the offer because my salary doubled.
