I can speak as someone who has burned out several times - The key to working a normal work-day is to develop a thick skin - to understand that there are things that are possibly important, but just aren't going to get done because you

Come on, get her a real server, vps at least. If you look hard enough you can find one for $10 a month, less if you pay for a year. Do you really want her to waste her time struggling with all the crap that comes with 'free'? Plus

Very interesting, very ambitious. As someone with adhd, the best advice I could give is to find someone who doesn't have adhd to help out, or manage the project. I'd like to help but my coding skills are a few orders of magnitude

I really feel for you. I broke my arm a few years ago, and never found a good way around it. I really honestly felt like I was mentally handicapped (does anyone else feel like when they're coding they think with their hands?). The best I ca

IOS Only :( We're building a really big project using Stripe right now, it's too bad I can't give stripe an extra $6 (which I would do in a heartbeat).

I'm not sure how these are actually alternatives, if you can't actually get a phone with any of these OS's on them.

I'm a Canadian and I was pulled over and questioned at a dhs check stop a few years ago, within this 100 mile zone. It all went fine, but the did ask what I was up to when I went through the same check the next day. (I was sightseeing).
