Ask HN: Would like to work for free
I have tried to get programming job in the past but I noticed that I needed to work under a professional programmer to pick up the core skill set.
I have good working knowledge of C language, I am a bit rusty in Clojure . I can easily pick up Python. I would like remote(job) structure and I would be working for 3 hours a day. Currently I am gradually learning and coding toy languages (interpreter/compiler). I have contributed to an open source interpreter. I have also started out surveying computer vision .
If you have side projects or you are independent programmers and won't mind having someone working with you , please contact me.
I am not limited to the above mentioned languages. I have studied computer algorithms and language complexity from a decent university.
- staticautomatic 9y agoI'll bite. 1. What kinds of things have you built in C (or other languages you know). Is any of it posted in a public repo? 2. Do you have any experience with web development? Do you want it? 3. What sort of experience, if any, do you have with testing? 4. If you're based outside the U.S. there may be some grey area but FYI as of a few years ago I'm pretty sure it's no longer possible to work for free for a U.S. company (you can "donate" your skills to non-profits, though). You'll most likely have to be paid minimum wage.

I have done commercial web app using Clojure in the past . I love web development, I would accept it with two hands . I have not done much on testing except basic ones that returns true or false . I am based outside the U.S . I won't mind donating my skill .
- woah 9y agoYea, we're working on www.altheamesh.com. Happy to have you help. We're working with C, Solidity (Ethereum language), and trying to decide between Rust and Lua for some daemon code. Click on the link for "Chat" at the top and say hi.
