I missed out a comma in my code which crashed the Splittu app and I didn't know until this morning. Went to bed happily after pushing to production and slept so well. Woke up to panicked messages from frands 😅 FML. JY made the best joke "Food coma until no comma" 😂😂😂💀💀 (see yesterday's big ass lunch)
BL sent over some graphics - will update the app with the new assets tomorrow.
Favicon, home screen icons, and open graph image for Splittu app.
Done today:
✓ Learned about loops and data processing in n8n. ✓ Completed the character selector feature for AI Ad Kit. ✓ Signed up for a forest sanctuary internship to learn how to build a home out of mud and bamboo. (Let's see if it turns out to be a scam or not.) ✓ Did the full Freeletics dumbbell gains workout.
It is raining all day, so it's very cold, which puts me in a super productive state! It feels like I'm finally back to a good momentum again. I want all my days to be like this.
I have a degree in Marketing Management from University of Otago, New Zealand. I ran a successful restaurant for 13 years in Singapore, a brutally competitive market for F&B. I also ran a bakery for 7 of those years. I sold both businesses for 6 figures in 2019.
Then I taught myself to code, and have been working in software since. In 2021, I was hired as General Manager for a restaurant software startup, where I helped market and grow the app to $400k/year revenue.
On the side, I started building my own small projects, aimed at near-passive income. So began a 10,000-hour-long experiment to see if I can make $10k/month by "f*cking around and finding out". This blog is a daily record of the real hours spent & dollars earned.
