Not having money is the root of all evil. While I work my job that gives me the shit fiat wage just making ends meet this takes my time. I dream of where I could get paid to build more of Nostr & spread the word of the decentralizing infrastructure. I do it out of passion but that time will soon be less for me unless I get paid.
Time is passing by while people who focus on one career to make big bucks & nothing else it is those who are interests that diverse are the ones who suffer. If I could make Nostr a full time job I would but whos willing to pay me an income?
With AI I thought that would be something possible but even getting started with that cost big money which I don't have. $5000 for a 128GB ram desktop with a high end gpu, knowledge & time to spend configuring things terminal & editing files. Then if you can't run the llm efficiently resort to claude for $100 a month.
The hardest part of all of it is getting started! If I could get started I promise you in one year I will have nostr become a better place. My game ideas could be created, I could build a better client for certain elements of Nostr while working on improving PosterChan. Time is everything & I can't do it for free I need to eat & sleep you know what I mean? Shits going to get only more expensive every year.
I hate my job but it pays & I need that income. It's not my career or goal in life to continue working a shitty job that pays just enough but not enough to thrive. I could look for another job & sacrifice sleep also have no time for nostr work at all. Balance is a struggle because the man must pay the rent, gas, electric, & more.
If I could get the help to get the desktop that would be the start I need to change everything around. Will the people of Nostr help me accomplish that so I can give back more?
