Hey everyone.
How's your Saturday's going?

Had to go to uni cause my supervisor only has his seminar on Saturdays. Currently waiting for him to arrive.
Actually I've been pretty idle today. Probably lacking motivation.

Now that crypto has Justed the entire board, we can finally get back to grinding, we need these /entg/ generals daily

It’s already up daily bro

Bump from page 9.

its alright
my left calf is busted from running and i need to work at the McJob i got myself so i can buy more Link so that will be a bit painful but whatever
im a student but i figured if all i do is drink and (try to) fuck on weekends i might aswell trade that weekend in for 200 euro extra
i mean, thats 400 Link
also oogling bitcoin at these prices and eth, god damn im glad i get to lower my average buy
people ive known for years think im crazy but i think some of them are insane for working shit jobs and then buying a green shake for an hour worth of labor

im studying conference interpreting by the way and im betting on more international, remote internet based conferences taking place in the future if this whole one connected world based on voluntary communitites kind of thing takes off

Yeah I think crypto should get it's own board at this point, /entg/ and /smg/ are the only threads that have real ideas outside it at the moment

Not too bad so far, but I've got fucked over by my wagie company and now I have to find a lawyer. Never used a lawyer before. But basically got terminated for something I didn't do. Now it's going to screw over any chance at finding even a part time job. It hasn't really sunk in yet. I'm going to start studying accounting and bookkeeping, and get my license. I feel like I have a good chance at getting a settlement but idk.
How are you guys doing this morning?

Have you tried using those rollers on your calf? They usually work pretty well.

That's sounds amazing. How long did it take you to code it? Damn id neet it up for a year on 100k

Angel Tip of the Day: Consider the billion-dollar business. What are some of their shared characteristics? How did they become so successful, so large, and make so much money? I believe that thinking about these questions can help you think about how to start a small business using principles that lead to increasing scale and profits. The internet is your best bet, in my view, but don't take that as an absolute. Also, note that a fucking ice cream business can make millions under certain conditions, while an unsuccessful "diamond" or "luxury clothing" business could tank. Try to think big while also taking it easy on yourself by not trying to reinvent the wheel. Good luck. I hope this at least provokes some thought.

Boys, I'm new to SEO shit so I'd be up for some advice.

I'm building a single location travel website (think Tokyo cheapo). I've already hired decent writers but I'm having trouble getting backlinks. Individual travel bloggers don't wanna link up to me cuz I compete. How to get the first links? Been spamming social media but don't hit more than 100 users a day.

bump the only thread without crypto retards

Launching my new product(ecommerce) monday. Been creating black friday deals for the past week.

Hey, I found some old .txt files in my ecommerce folder. I probably picked them up from this board a while ago but they might be of use to someone.

FBA guide - pastebin.com/QDz2VRWQ
Niche's - pastebin.com/DFzMa0Ep

Maybe something in the Dropbox can help. Lots of ideas and such. Check op. But I would say maybe resell some stuff? Something that you can jack the price up for Christmas on ebay.

Thanks for sharing these dude! I'll cap then for other anons. Appreciate ya :)

Hey guys, full time web developer waggie here. Launched a few ventures in the past, mostly haven't gone anywhere.

Do you guys mostly work alone? I been finding it too difficult while working fulltime.

What happened buddo?

Be right there tomorrow. I feel like all the low-cost entry options are just taking a skill and applying it in a niche. I guess there's grind-heavy stuff too, I had a coworker who was constantly lurking OfferUp for PCs and parts, taking the best deals, and reselling whatever he didn't wanna keep. Sometimes he'd find a small business or contractor closing shop or upgrading everything, so they're selling shit just to recoup a bit of cost while getting rid of it asap, and on top of that he'd typically haggle them down by offering to take most or all of the shit. Might be viable to get your escape-egg a bit bigger.

Hey that's smart, shit.

I'm an engineer who manufactures plastic products. Some investment required but usually decent returns as we make our stuff in China @ my partners factory.

>we make our stuff in China @ my partners factory.

You must be mistaken.
That is China's factory.

I think having partnera would make this kind of wage-escape a lot more viable as long as all parties are committed

Why haven't you gotten into independent webdev? I've been drraming of it. I feel like as long as you grab a niche vertical, figure out how to market to them, and get a good portfolio/a few sample sites you can milk it for a good while.

Well it was a chill job until the new boss came. He does no work and puts it on others, then reports them for not cleaning their floors when they are running around doin other shit.
>get a call about a mountian of cardboard blocking pickup of trash compactor
>have to move it like quick
>call for help on radio, no one answers
>boss ignores me but he's there
>move it all by myself (not my job)

>multiple employees whose job it is to clean up trash ignored it for 2 days
>boss finds out I'm reporting him
>tries to stop me from telling management
>show management and try to finish my shift
>says if I try and finish shift he will call security on me
>get suspended

>get fired for "harassment and abusive behavior" instead of insubordination
>jews me out of a week's worth of pay
>never called him a name or got in his face or anything just got upset and explained the situation to mall management
>basically they ruined my good reputation never ever had a problem with anyone in the 10 yrs I've been working.
Not great at greentexting but thats the gist of it. I'm going to try and get a settlement do I can support myself until I become self employed. Don't know what's going to happen though. My social anxiety always gets worse when I don't have a job so it's harder to bounce back. It's been like 2 weeks almost and I'm already feeling the confidence I've built up socially over the past 2 years is gone. Anyways sorry for a long ass rant post, thanks for asking also pls excuse bad spelling

Can I make good side money doing porn if I have a big dick?

you can't just have a big dick, you have to have a good dick.

what about the union

We don't have one, I can go to the labour board and wage board. I've also been asked to join a class action. But my exboss gave me her attorneys number, so I have to wait for his call or call him on monday. Unions are leeches too, often times they just suck an extra hundred off my paycheck and the have me go on strike.

Can't you like cam or sell clips on clips for sale or something? It's probably a lot of work getting into legit porn, but that's just my opinion

Goddamn man, that shit sucks. Bullshit drama always makes positions like this that could be alright a stressful chore.

> My social anxiety always gets worse when I don't have a job so it's harder to bounce back.

Dude I know the fuck outta that feel, it's incredible how much that lack of financial security just pulls the linchpin out of my psychology. Keep your head up, you know the jobs are out there.

As a dude, yeah. More importantly the work itself is a lot more grueling than the finished product would ever have you think, and I get the sense that it really changes your mentality and tendencies when it comes to sex, but if you're willing to sacrifice the ability to cum without jackin it and you find trustworthy producers it's good money.

*the opportunities

It's important to do stuff that keeps you in good spirits and helps you push through when it comes to those social skills, especially if you're planning to be self-employed, because (of course) these tools are essential to networking. That said, idk if your escape plan needs you to network.

Thanks dude it's nice to know that someone else gets it. If I'm not making myself talk to people, I'll just live the neet life in my room bascially. I have family and friends I try to talk to more often so I don't lose it. Going out in public is a lot more difficult though. Right now I'm financially okay, I have lots of savings and am doing odd jobs for extra cash. It's just not constantly being out in the world that makes me regress into my shyness and hikki ways.
>Bullshit drama always makes positions like this that could be alright a stressful chore.
100% what happened. the place I worked was a drama keg. I just like to work and go home.
Thanks bud, I'll keep my chin up and stay positive. I have to start taking care of myself again, my diet has gotten fucked and I stopped excersizing. I'm always afraid I'm going to get diabetes.

3 days spent not working on anything. Normally I'd feel really terrible. But I've been listening to this audiobook. The dude reading is super cringy, but the message is pretty solid. I think I've found a book that is seriously addressing one of my major flaws as an operating human.

Two things he's said so far.
Stop letting yourself get stuck in personal feedback loops. That is, those moments when you're screaming at yourself "why the hell would i say/do that!?"

And. Stealing the quote for this one.
>“The desire for more positive experience is itself a negative experience. And, paradoxically, the acceptance of one’s negative experience is itself a positive experience. (p.9)”
Wishing you had a great life. Like Chad having a great life on Instagram. Agonizing over it, gives you horrible stress.(negative.) Acknowledging being a wagecuck with mountains of student loan debt and having a bleak outlook about the future.(positive...?)

Well the book explained it better :) I'll get my ass back in gear now.

Attached: 44392975_000_b.jpg (600x900, 56K)

mm yea i can say the latter is definitely a positive. I didn't really start getting my shit together as an adult until I started keeping personal finances like I was a business entity, and just seeing how all sorts of my life were being fucked over. There's no worse feeling than organizing all of your accounts and seeing the massive debt you've nonchalantly pile-drive'd yourself into. Partly the reason I became an accountant, so I can help others avoid the mistakes I made.

Any ideas on how I can apply my machine learning skills?

Attached: 1472785913702.gif (283x212, 399K)

Find a problem -- solve it with machine learning.

It's finding the problem I'm stuck on

Do you not have problems in your life user?

Is that hard

Good point

Depends on the problem, I suppose. As far as I know, these are some of the more outstanding problems right now:

-Short term asset growth
-Self driving cars
-Kitchen Robot
-Sexbot
-Sentient AI

Craigslist odd jobs, temp security gig(s), flip something people sell on Craigslist that you're familiar with (so you know good vs bad prices), check da liss

So do guys work full-time, part time or maybe you study?
Me, I work and study.

Quit job 2 weeks ago to go fulltime on my ecommerce biz. Still alive so thats gud

As great as audiobooks are (and i use them a lot more often than i read), you really suffer by not having a physical book that you can refer to and refresh your memory. So unless you plan on listening to it multiple times, my suggestion is to do what i do and summarise the most important aspects of the book and print it out (can usually fit them all on one A4 page).
I find that if i don't do this, the more i consume the more i forget the particulars of each book/chapter I've listened to.

To the user adding stuff to the Drop-box...

Thank you for adding all the screen-shots from the people who actually know stuff, I have my reading cut out for me now!

Yeah i dont know where to ask this question so here i am.


Can anyone explain to me how shorting works?

In the big short you follow Mark Baum who shorts the housing market, and in the last part of the movie he decides to sell it all.
Who is he selling it to? is it an obligation to buy back the bonds Mark shorted or what?

That question is better for /smg/ stock market general.

ebay-kleinanzeigen.de - Germany

That's actually a fantastic freakin idea. There's at least 10 books that I told myself, I need to listen to this again. Either because it's an advanced concept or I completely miss what they said. Also I love taking notes of ideas that I learn. I find that I retain them much easier. Super great takeaways from books get burned in my memory for a while.

Is self-improvement /entg/?

No problemo dude! Ever since I realized the other threads were disappearing, I put it together. Would be a huge shame If all that knowledge disapeeared. I also cap things for personal use so I thought why not. Super happy it's helping someone!

>sell the carts and shovels
Im unironically thinking about creating some sort of crypto news site. Theres not much competition in russian speaking part of internet, so just translating articles from english crypto news sites could work.
