Author here! Cool to see this pop up on HN again. I was wondering why I was getting so many Twitter notifications all of a sudden.
As a quick update, I continue to be happy with my decision to leave Google. I enjoy working for myself, even though I haven't made much money at it yet. I'm ending 2019 with ~$7k in revenue, which isn't much, but it's a bump from the $2.2k I made in 2018. My savings are still far higher than my annual cost of living, so I'm not in any danger of running out of money in the next few years.
I'll be posting another year-end summary to my blog on Feb. 1, 2020. I also write monthly retrospectives[1] about my work and weekly updates on What Got Done.[2]
