My Six Years of Writing on HackerNoon in Numbers and Pictures
\ On October 14, 2018, I published my first story on HackerNoon.
\ Six years and 126 stories later I look back at my words through the lenses of numbers, first.
\ Words written: 122,410
“Sense and Sensibility” by Jane Austen has 119,394 words written.
I can export all of my stories as PDFs in one document. I’m thinking about “Nonsense & Hypersensibility,” as the most appropriate title.
\ TOTAL READING TIME GENERATED: 569,700 minutes
I’m like 200,000 minutes short of the time required to walk the full length of the Great Wall of China.
