The iPhone came out in 2007. That was the year the worm turned, imo.

Not sure if serious, but there’s a million ways to do this, some that require importing thousands of lines of code and none of which are guaranteed to work in all possible circumstances. But here’s a simple one.

You’ve got the right idea, that video is spot on. I quit software for “work” in 2010 and moved to a job working for myself (self directed) doing work that I felt mattered (purpose driven) and that was work that required constant self improvement, both mental and physical (mastery). I’m no longer behind a desk, I meet new people every day and I am much happier. I also write more software now than I ever did at “work,” because I write software with the express intent of supporting my self-employment endeavors - and not for anybody else.
