Show HN: A side project in medical devices
> My fiancée was working with a plastic surgeon, Rowan Pritchard Jones, who had also been in the Royal Army Medical Corps, who was thinking about his own medical equivalent of a side-project - writing a book with his colleague, Paul McArthur. They decided to do some form of app instead to make it different, and asked me if I was interested in working with them.This shows once again that building successful software depends not just on coding skills or UX design skills, but more on the connections we have. I'm betting most senior developers on HN could have come up with this kind of solution (or perhaps even more advanced ones). Connections determine, through a seemingly random process, our ability to actually find interesting stuff to work on. I just wish it was simpler to find interesting project ideas.
