Ask HN: Does anyone develop/hack while working in a completely separate field?

2 pointsby teapot01over 9 years ago
I&#x27;ve been working on developing a project for the last 6 months while working full time as a mechanical engineer. I&#x27;m interested to hear about anyone else&#x27;s experience with something similar.<p>I&#x27;ve considered taking one day a week to dedicate to development, has anyone else tried this?

Not me, but one of the Linux kernel hackers Con Kolivas is an anaesthetist.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Con_Kolivas" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Con_Kolivas</a>
