My friend makes around $200 a week just selling the old furniture and stuff that his neighbors put out in the trash.

Yes - essentially dumpster diving, but he says he can flip the stuff via Craigslist in less than 24 hours usually.

I’ve heard of people who do this strictly with couches. Helps to have a truck, garage/storage, and someone to help load it. You can easily get a few hundred bucks a week for a couple hours and a little bit of gas.

They had a TV show about this that was quite popular. It was called storage wars.

So engineers can now automate the writing of basic code, and potentially more complex tasks, by using GPT-3.

For those who are technical: If machines can write code, how are you going to upskill? And what are the best ways make yourself indispensable?

I am not embracing the notion that you shouldn't have to code to do data science. However, I think coding may soon be much less of a competitive advantage.

Life / Career Advice: I applied to medical school since my MCAT score was set to expire, ended up getting into 1 program. I also have an opp to join a well funded/well established Healthtech Startup (6 figure salary w/ equity + benefits) as a BD professional. I enjoy the business side of things and am unsure if I would end up practicing Medicine (medicine is also a long arduous path). At the same time, having an MD holds a lot of clout/authority in HC. Any thoughts on what I should do?

Any insight into the Product Development Specialist role at Facebook? My goal is product management and I am currently a strategy consultant with 3 YOE (not technical), but this seems like a possible path toward that goal. The initial total comp brought up was only $110K (base, bonus, stock), which is barely more than I am making now, though they said there was room to negotiate on the stock portion.
