(rant) Disapointed By Life and my career(I will not promote)
Basically what the title says. I got a math degree and I have a psychology degree as well. I have been building things using computers since I was 7 years old(I'm 28 now) I have a mediu page. I get a lot of readers every time. Job recruiters contact me a lot. I have built a trading system that i'm happy with. I can solve hard problems. But I"ve been unemployed for 6 months. I've sent in lots of aplications, I talk with recruiters every day. I did a contract that lasted for a little while but it ended. honestly I jsut don't trust the job market anymore. As a college student before I started building the trading system I had a lot of ideas for things to build. But once I started building the trading system that was my only focus until I felt like I had figured it out sufficently well. Now I've been searching the internet like a mad-person looking for problems that Need to be solved. Some kind people on here were saying that I should try and solve problems that occur to me but honestly other than not having a good job I feel like my life is pretty good and i'm out of ideas. so I try and idk disect hard ai-related problems and I keep running into there being big companies already doing the same thing or problems just not being important enough to be solved. I really believe that if somebody is going to build smething it should be a lot better and not just a little bit better. I think what Peter Thiel was saying about looking for problems to solve not buisness ideas was 100% correct but i'm struggling to find real problems to work on. I have spent days and days looking into this and i'm starting to feel like a spammer posting on reddit asking people about their problems. I have the skills and the motivation but no real problem to solve that feels important and meaningful. idk I was going to make a good open source ai enabled writing app just to make a point that I think that it's stupid to make people pay a subscription for this. but idk other than making an open source repo to be like stop ripping people off. I have no clue what to build. Thanks for bearing with me through this rant.
