- jessehorne 8y agoStories like this are incredible. If you ever want to go into detail with this story in an article or something, I'd love to read it.
- tnr23 8y agoThank you, I don't enjoy writing anything else than code or short texts/comments though.
- jessehorne 8y agoI probably couldn't afford to pay you to change your mind but I could volunteer some time on a project or something in exchange for you answering a few questions that I could turn into an article about your success, perhaps? Win win?
- tnr23 8y agoThank you for your offer. No offense, but that would be of no use for me. I learned that external outsourcing of development tasks is not effective at all if you want to focus on delivering quality that customers really love. Another point is that my market is really not obvious at all and I want to have competitors as late as possible. Currently there are none I know of. Only competitors who solve parts of it which existed before me anyway.

- briandear 8y agoI did the same for an area related to mental health. Generates about $5k a month, so nowhere near your level, but it pays for the kids to go to one of the best school in the Santa Clara Valley. So for me, it’s the most important code I have ever written. Second most important is code that does some video and audio stuff that runs on about a literal billion devices.
