And how do I survive?...
Who will fund my development and my code learning?
I collaborate on the translation of open source software, but I've never been paid for it...
In my opinion, what's missing is a decentralized Bitcoin-based education system that trains influencers, developers, teachers, and researchers, as well as a more robust project financing system, like Bitcoin finances buyers, but with Bitcoin smart contracts.
It’s satirical
I know, but it touches on a current sore point that should be a reality...
There's a lack of a more solid funding and support structure for good open source initiatives and projects.
Open source, in general, loses badly in both, and it's sad to see so many good things die because people interested in and capable of developing solutions have to continue focusing on the centralized world to survive.
I do think he agrees. Unrealistic too think people do not need to seek out funding.
I don't think it is, many expect open source to be free to use.
Serious education exists.
For devs programs, search for Vinteum, Chaincode Labs, Btrust Builders, Bitshala, Liberia de Satoshi. How to get funded is one of the things we talk in the programs.
Also, I have a regular Bitcoin course for CS and engineering programs at the Univ. of Brasília and I'm helping update the MIT course.
So, for your question of how to survive, we have undergrads that went straight to a bitcoin grant or job, we have guys that saved from their 9 to 5 job and used that to finance themselves until they've built enough proof of work to get funded, and we have guys that do as a side job while they build enough proof of work to quit.
Could be better, but funding is out there and tends to improve. It just is not actively advertising as in a regular company. Once you build a track record of smaller contributions, you'll find a way to reach a decent grant.
I didn't know anything about this, and I don't think I've ever heard of it. It really lacks publicity.
But it's incredible that all of this already exists 👏
My list of tutorials, some for laymen, some for devs. I haven't read most of them, though.

is your course material's available? It's hard to find good stuff in portuguese.
I guess you are this guy, I have met some of your coleagues:

I'm that guy, but a bit older than the picture.
Have a full set.of recorded lectures here: https://youtube.com/@edilmedeiros
I'm also working on putting my lecture notes in written, but this will take a few more months.
