I have to think there are lots and lots of industries ripe for disruption or even for their first taste of software, and it's just that they're outside the radar of the vast majority of engineers. Industries you never ever hear about unless you're an insider. Maybe we need some mechanism for cross-pollinating people from "deep industry" with entrepreneurs. Many of the "visible" ones have already been saturated to death with startups, and it's just because those are what software people happen to be aware of.
maybe they don't want software people f#cking up their lives?
I know it's hard for the avg hackernews to understand but software isn't always a blessing but many times a curse bestowed upon workers by someone in the mngmt chain who has been sold on a solution.
I was going to go home to the US and visit one or two companies per day that I felt were underserved. This was supposed to be early March. Didn’t go as planned.
