income streams tested
I studied computer science through a bachelor's and a master's focused on AI and for just as long, I've been building things on the side that made money: apps, games, an e-commerce store, a publishing business, freelance services, and AI-based services.
Some of it worked well. Some of it I walked away from. This site is where I write it all down the methods, the numbers, and what I'd actually do again.
