Out of curiosity, what brought you to HN? While not riding the tech train professionally, have you considered investing in or starting any products?
- sensibletouches 13y agoWhen I was in medical school, I taught myself some Python and C++ to help automate some of the data collection and analysis for a cancer research project I was doing. That project was attached to a drug that I now have a minority financial interest in. Been interested in technology since I was a kid. This weekend I was toying with the Keccak hash function code just for fun, even though it has absolutely no relationship to anything useful I could do programatically. The simple pleasures... I have a financial relationship with Epic Systems, but that's more of a nepotistic thing than it is something I earned. As far as investing in new products, I don't really have an interest at this point. Things are stable and I like it that way.
