Checked some databases. It seems I've written about 1.6 million words in 8 years. 1 million on HN, 600k on my sites. (Suboptimal ratio.)
@alinajaf Though "Writing a million words about that would probably make you seen as something of an expert on it" a useful lesson, too.

@patio11 I'm more of the impression that writing a 900k words makes that last 100k an order of magnitude higher quality than otherwise. -
@alinajaf I would definitely agree with this. It took me about, hmm, 3 years until my blog had something interesting to say interestingly. - 1 more reply

@alinajaf You have no idea how headdesk inducing that is to me. - 1 more reply
