Hmm, is it Newton day on HN? I am guessing that you submitted this after seeing it linked to on today's other Newton thread[1]?

I am the author of Dash Board, so feel free to uh, AMA, as the kids say these days...

Ah, cool. I was looking for a way to contact you, but couldn't find a way on your web site or on the GitHub page, short of opening an issue.

Not that I have anything really interesting to say - just that I really enjoyed reading your write-up. Really interesting and, as mediocre dev myself trying to make a little money here and there, inspirational as well. Thanks for sharing it. (I also used to do development in Tokyo too, and hope to be able to do it again some day, should the stars realign.)

Right, I thought your README was far too wonderful to confine to a comment on a thread.

Is this a blog post repo?

No, although as it happens, I did also write a blog post about my experience with it:

Oh, I just noticed the code, thanks.
