ex Founder & CEO @WishTender a safe wishlist for creators • Building a device that allows me to tweet from lucid dreams 🛌💭📡 • Self Taught Programmer • Stoic
- I've been playing with deep learning, deepfakes, and @aialievk's Avatarify. Learnings documented here in my log: github.com/DashBarkHuss/1… #CodeNewbie #DeepLearning #MachineLearning #deepfakes #NeuralNetworks #CodeNewbies

- My 13 month old indie business did $26.2k in profit last month These are 5 indiehacker myths I did not listen to when building
- Hey WishTender fam. I'm sure you've seen the announcement by now. This has been a challenging time for me and my team. We've been put in a very tough and nearly impossible position after being given many false assurances. We've had many twists and turns thrown at us in an
- Last year a founder asked what my net promoter score was. I said I didn’t know that term. He criticized, “how you expect to succeed without knowing startup terms?” Now my startup makes 40k rev/m. I never learned what net promoter score meant. That founder is still prelaunch.
- I’ve never been to Silicon Valley I’ve never taken funding. I built WishTender in my mom’s basement trying to help a friend get gifts safely. You don’t need to do things the way everyone else does! Just build things that help people.
- A guy will complain to me that they can't make money online because they are not a hot girl. Yet a male cartoon bobcat made over 6k today on WishTender. So please abandon your self-limiting beliefs.
- In case you're new to my page, I: -Lived in a van for 3 years -Taught myself to code in the van -Built WT as a solo dev, after a friend said it would help them -My spouse started working for me after I launched -We bootstrapped the business to 50k+ users in 1.5 years
- Just broke $83,333.33 gross revenue for the month! Anyone know why that's cool?
- Self teaching? Have patience. Students spend 4+ years and 100k+ on a degree. But no one bats an eye. Learning on your own? People judge you if you don't have a job or business after a few months. Take your time. Endure a few years of judgement. It will pay off.
- It’s my birthday! I’m grateful for WishTender, my partner Sam, and the challenges I’ve been able to overcome. A few years ago I began learning coding in a van. It’s been a journey since then. I hope I’m lucky enough to keep delivering value to you all for a long time!
- A year ago, I coded a simple program: "My program counts the number of times you click a button." 366 days later, I've coded every day and progressed so much. I'm so glad I took on this challenge. For those who want to try, if I can do it, you can too. #codenewbie #100daysofx
