Ask HN: How can I make some side money?

1 points by brwr ↗ HN
Here is my situation: I am living in San Francisco at the moment while being a student at App Academy (www.appacademy.io -- a Rails boot camp). In a little under a month I will have graduated and I will be in need of a job, but my financial resources will be thoroughly depleted and I will most likely have to move back to Florida where I can live rent-free for a short time while I look for a job.

It would be easier to find a job in San Francisco if I were already here, so I would love to know what I can do to make enough side money to make staying here in SF an option. Also, if you are hiring junior engineers (Rails or otherwise), we should talk. ;)

For anyone who is curious, here is my GitHub account: https://github.com/jmsbrwr. My email can also be found in my profile.

You could drive for Sidecar or Lyft. From what I've heard, it works pretty well for networking too.
That thought has crossed my mind, but then I realized that my car is in Florida. Also, I'm 20, so I don't think I would be able to anyways.
