New comment by Vinnl in "Ask HN: What has been your most rewarding job/project and why?"

I'm very interested in pursuing a path like that, but I have two reservations about it:

1. Colleagues. The fact that non-profits are underserved by tech works, also means that you're less likely to have talented colleagues to learn from. 2. When they're not tech organisations. There might be a lack of understanding of both the opportunities and challenges for tech in their specific area, and I'm not sure I'd have some influence in helping with that. I really don't want to be the person who maintains a Wordpress site for a non-profit, and don't think I'd actually be that effective in contributing to their mission that way either.

What are your reflections on that?
