It's a night and day difference to your stress tolerance, energy, mental clarity and productivity. No processed foods, carnivore-heavy diet, exercise every day (even just a walk - get your heart rate up, get your blood flowing), full night's sleep each and every night.

Now with farming people eat stupid shit that should not even be eaten at all. Like corn flakes. It was actually first used as feed for pig's and farm animals until they got the idea to feed it to people. So just like fattening up hogs now people are also getting fat and lazy as well.

@danielroth4497 7 месяцев назад

If you are a freelancer, you are spending a significant amount of time on tasks that you don’t/can’t charge for (e.g. business development, contract negotiation). If you are working 8-10 hours a day, but only able to bill for 4-6 of those hours, you have to factor that in. While “rates” are important, it is your total take home (area under the curve) that really matters.

What would you advice for someone working in big tech wanting to go freelance?

@TheCommanderstyle 8 месяцев назад

This is a bit confusing for me because if you agree on a project price, e.g. a website for 1000 bucks, it's not hourly billed. Also finishing the project in 2 hours might seem like a good deal, but getting the requirements takes in my opinion at least one to two meetings. Adding the paper work you might easily end up 4-5 hours, which is still good, but I cannot imagine someone hacking out 20 websites for 20 different clients each week. Also, I don't see how this approach scales on larger projects which go on for months and require you to provide a timesheet.

@darshandev1754 8 месяцев назад

yup agreed with all your points, this is only useful when you can easily estimate the scope, i.e. small wordpress projects

@StefanMischook 8 месяцев назад

If you are having to provide a timesheet, you are no longer a freelancer, you are a contractor ... which is a temp employee. And yes, in those cases, where you are selling your time, (and not the job/outcome) ... so this strategy does not apply. With freelancing, it is typical that there is an agreed upon price for the job. Therein lies the loophole to the strategy.

Let's say you work 5 billable hours per day by price of $400/hr, which roughly means 100hrs/month ($40.000). Almost half a million per year. In real life, small percentage of developers can be even close to this amount.
