10% make more than 10,000 a month. Nice! And that is only 16 makers who reported this, and only for 2024–2025. I was too lazy to scan past years, but I will do.

I analyzed 326 side projects featured on HN between 2024 and 2025 that claimed to earn $500+ monthly; I found that half of them make less than $1,000 a month. (Don't get me wrong, that’s still impressive—especially since I’m not even making $500 yet!)
Common Successful Models:
- Niche Job Boards: Often gross around $1,000/month by referring traffic or charging for featured posts.
- Micro-SaaS/Utilities: Services like online faxing or uptime monitors frequently sit in the $500–$1,000 range.
- Content/Education: Books and interactive courses often provide a steady $500/month floor after an initial launch.

I am working on a https://humanityjobs.com.
It is a job board that helps find jobs across humanitarian areas—helping people, helping address poverty, traveling in the world, and traveling in developing countries.
I would like to create a comprehensive list of jobs with organizations that are internationally verified. So if you are working on anything like that, please feel welcome.

You can create Pinterest-like images on the fly now with AI. IMO, the end is inevitable for similar companies.

Do you think they will be implementing AI again anytime soon? haha.

Was there any chance for your company to implement AI and to make more sales/ keep your job?

Fired or let go. I understand that many positions have duplicate people in backup roles, so some will be redundant.

Yes, I've heard about that. Any personal stories are very much appreciated.

I work on https://FluentDomains.com
I source these expiring domains from auctions and rank them as if I were looking for a perfect domain.
Examples:
- london wine tours .com
- timber roof .com
- liquor dealer .com
- ai data science jobs .com
and many more...

I created a simple app that lets your kid call Santa AI via video call. Parents can use this webpage to schedule a 5-minute or 10-minute call with Santa, who will speak to their child.
Very, very realistic and could support a dialogue, ask questions, and even tell if there is a gift for a kid.
I use the HeyGen AI avatar, and I DO NOT record any video. Would you show this to your kid? Could you give me some feedback?
