Maybe it's because I'm a rural Michigander, or maybe it's because I'm 35. Whatever the case may be, whenever I read a line such as, "It goes by many names: boot-strapped, solo-founded, self-funded, indie-hackers...etc... and it's pretty hot right now!" I have a visceral reaction. Around here that's just owning a business. No one cares about how it's structured or how it's funded. Trying to quantify your business to others in such ways is so much window dressing.

That being said, the rest of the article was a nice read.
