This is pretty cool, the last frame is telling.

It would be interesting to see the tags compared to each other by their relative bucket. As in IOS/iPhone/Android or web frameworks Django/RoR/Play/etc compared.

Also I'd be interested in knowing how the java popularity is without android (postings without the android tag).

2 Q's:

1. "Find or create one proprietary data source"

Any other examples & how do you monetize on this?

2. "you want passive options but more active options, like selling consulting, are things that might well fit"

You're doing a great job at it looking at your year in review, but don't you need an established name with years of blog/material to get these sorts of rates?

Thank you!

MaggieL,

  As a guy in his 30's it would be interesting to read more on how you did this. Were you laid off at any point? Did you learn Scala on your own or through a previous employer, or a class? And finally, how hard was it for you to make your transition & land this job?

I find myself having to learn new skills with things changing every ~5yrs. Its scary, but also quite interesting to see things fork SO MUCH so fast lately. I feel its exponential...I'm basing this on only 2+ iterations, lets see how my 3rd ends up.

I ended up passing on it in the theaters, it didn't get the best of reviews. I have it in my queue though, hoping it will be a solid surprise.

There's a fundamental difference between investors and customers.

Users are customers, they pay if they feel the value of the product is worth XYZ.

Investors are banking on the idea/product to be worth more in the future than what it is now. They also have an appetite for risk, mainly because they understand investing and diversify.
