From my point of view, he is very productive, successful, willing to give ton of advice.

He has few good websites (or call it startup or whatever).

t0mislav··on Tokyo Olympics “looking at a cancellation” if coronavirus not contained
Happened yesterday in my company. :( Big tech company, 2000+ people, central Europe. First registered patient with COVID-19 in my country is from company I'm working for.

We all received notice to work from home.

It will be huge test now for remote work. I bet lot of people doesn't even know how to connect from home. (people from administration etc)

t0mislav··on Having Kids
> The fact is, most of the freedom I had before kids, I never used.

This is so true!

Now with kids, there is tiny bit of freedom, but this freedom (free time) is spent 10x better.

t0mislav··on I wasted 10 weeks of my life and $1900
I don't think anything is wasted here.

Something is learned, on next fail something else could be learned, but third or fourth time big things can happen.

t0mislav··on Kingrow K1 smartphone with e-Ink display
Apparently this is Android 8.0 in background (according to youtube comments). Looks promising, maybe we have distraction free phone coming.

I would kill for a phone like this with Whatsapp or Viber or Messenger and not only SMS (reduces communication costs a lot).

t0mislav··on Ask HN: What was your best passive income in 2018?
Little bit of "random country", "random place", "random country generator" and few more similiar phrases.
t0mislav··on Ask HN: What was your best passive income in 2018?
Thanks. I noticed that but tbth I was lazy to fix it as I needed to work on other things. But it will be fixed.
t0mislav··on Ask HN: What was your best passive income in 2018?
Correct, there was no advertising. At first, It was not even plan to make money from this site. It was to learn few new things.

In first year, I maybe leaved link on one or two subreddits, with not too many subscribers. I had little bit of traffic from reddit.

I had this url also in signature in 2 discussion boards, but boards were in Croatian language. So only little bit of traffic from there.

Then after some time I got better Google ranking. (there was no too much similiar sites there, so it was easy to get better ranking).

Once someone on 4chan or similair chan site posted link.

Basically, it has grown without marketing/advertising. But still, it is small site.

t0mislav··on Ask HN: What was your best passive income in 2018?
To be honest, I don't even know how to montize such small and simple site. This is not service where you return every day, or every few days. It's like you use this site for a minute, two, than you forget about it.
t0mislav··on Ask HN: What was your best passive income in 2018?
.country domain is something like 20 to 30$ a year I think. It was free domain when I searched for it.
t0mislav··on Ask HN: What was your best passive income in 2018?
There was no business model. It was just to learn code few years back. Then after a year I noticed there is some traffic on site. So I put ads there, and that is basically everything.
t0mislav··on Ask HN: What was your best passive income in 2018?
Yes. Only ads.
t0mislav··on Ask HN: What was your best passive income in 2018?
One small geography site, bringing "only" like 600-700$ a year, but it is passive. https://random.country/ I made few more similiar sites, but they all failed.
t0mislav··on How Facebook, Apple and Microsoft Are Contributing to OpenStreetMap
Because of that I needed to abandon Google Maps Api. But good thing is I learned how to download OSM data, generate and host my own maps.
t0mislav··on Craft: A simple Minecraft clone written in C using OpenGL shaders
Times when you will have plenty of time will come back fast. :( Kids will start to play more alone or with friends, less with parents, soon they will also grew up, and you will remember the days when you were everything for them.
t0mislav··on European parliament committee approves vote on ‘disastrous’ copyright bill
>> Article 11, requiring online platforms to pay publishers a fee if they link to their news content, was also approved.

>What the fucking FUCK?

This does not surprise me!

If your site has for example 5 article titles from CNN, linking all of them to original CNN articles, probably you have more benefit from that than CNN.

People this days like to skim through titles and not even bothering to read full articles, to click link.
