Older recently released USA ex con here. I recently gave up finding a job and am trying to start my own business. At the halfway house the only job I could get was at a recycling plant (aka sorting garbage) and came up with a idea for really simple machine recognition that would eliminate that manual process and maybe even allow for powerful applications in the larger world. I have simpler short term projects to hopefully make money, but having a larger 'mission' helps me keep going on the bad days. Keep your head up and stay strong brother! I see you.
