I bought a farm and quit tech, but I was management scum, not a SWE (though I did have some under me a couple jobs ago). There's a lot to learn. I'm not really doing this for the money, rather as my contribution to the community and environment, but it would be chill to make some anyway as a further validation of my process.

Farm? Are you rich?
doesn't require a lot of land or money, esp. if you're just doing a hobby farm.

depending on how rural you're willing to go, and how much labor you've got to throw in, you can get a lot of land on the cheap. tractors, air seeders, watering -- that can get expensive, but may not be needed.

Not anymore :D
