I was let go from Google in January, I started work on an iPad app: a visual schedule for neuro-atypical children to help them with tasks:

I shipped a rough v 1.0 a couple months ago, it has had FOUR downloads total .

Just anecdotal but: I bought a new European suv in 2017 drove 68,000 miles, very very gently. Turbo blew and sent debris into the engine, engine lost compression, needs full replacement, dealer quoted $35,000 job. Car was 6 years old, just out of warranty, was 60k new.
Now I drive an EV.
