Ask HN: Failed project you spent 15 hours/week for 5 years on?

Hello HN,

There's a popular post up today - "The unreasonable effectiveness of just showing up everyday" - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27833064

Some commenters have point out that this very well could be just an example of survivorship bias.

Did you put in 15+ hours a week for several years on a project that never went anywhere? Please add a comment about it - we'd love to hear about your experience.
