Ask HN: How are you making money on the side?

Just wondering what are y'all doing for side gigs these days?

I make Reflect with my partner. I do it on the side, they do it fully. It’s a private, local-first app to track and analyze your own personal data and run N=1 experiments.

I sell 3D printed paintball bunkers, useful for game planning before/during a tournament, https://pbminimaps.com.

Why are these called bunkers?
Jeremy1026•27m ago
Probably because of this definition from Dictionary.com:

n. a fortification set mostly below the surface of the ground with overhead protection provided by logs and earth or by concrete and fitted with openings through which guns may be fired.

While they aren't below ground or provide overhead protection. They are made to protect players from getting shot by other players.

I've thought about donating plasma. Might do it this Friday or something.

I run an audiophile music recommendation newsletter. It pays peanuts, but it's just past breakeven less than a year in and it's fun.

> A personal one-on-one Zoom call with me to talk hi-fi and music stuff, 60 minute max, once annually after 3rd month of membership, I will not be drawn into an argument about speaker wire

That last part... legend :)

A couple months ago I made a partnership with a kiosk bar in Copacabana beach/Rio and brought a group of expats there for a party, me and a friend got 10% of the bar consumption.

Some 300 people showed up so it was a good money for a side gig, planning on continuing doing these meetups.
