>>5237285>>5237490Hey, could I ask you two for the opposite advice from OP's question? I'm a CS graduate as well, master's degree, worked in software (mostly patient data systems for healthcare) for about six years in a senior-ish position, then got fed up with company culture and quit. I'm doing okay with my art business now, but I could definitely use something to take my mind off art and make a bit of extra money for an emergency fund. How would I approach getting a side gig doing programming? I know Java, have done C and PHP, I've built a pretty neat 2d game engine from scratch and worked with game AI, can learn a new language in a few weeks / months if there's something especially lucrative. I'd be looking for something I can do online, considering that there's covid and that I don't really have a home and don't plan to settle down anywhere right now.
I'm not expecting a detailed plan of course, but if you could point me in the right direction (for example, some subreddit, 4chan board, or other discussion forum to properly ask this question; or a suggestion for a good niche or language), I'd be grateful.
