Ask HN: Who wants to collaborate? (April 2022)

115 points by cloudsec9 5y ago

This thread is similar to the monthly "Who is hiring?" and "Freelancer? Seeking freelancer?" threads. But this one is for people who don't want to work for money and are not looking for people who want to work for money. But for people who want to work together on cool projects. For free to make the world better or to start a startup. If you do, please post your project or your skills! (Inspired by https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30162767 )

I'm actively exploring potential B2B SaaS applications of my ML/NLP research, and would love to collaborate with someone more on the business side who might have knowledge of problem spaces as well as experience in customer discovery. Please reach out if interested! https://rpandey.tech https://rpandey.tech

  I think we're interested in the same questions. I'm on the tech side, but trying to expand my business knowledge. https://lxagi.com https://lxagi.com

  I have maybe 8 years of soft experience working with artists in the creative space (music, video, retro game dev, etc#)and 4 years of experience in b2b enterprise sales in the SaaS space. I had a run through alphalabs and i live in the Pittsburgh area. My company worked with hundreds of local orgs - schools, hospitals, retail, etc# providing IT services and ive provided warehouse/staffing management related logistics(?) consulting for two fortune 500s. Ive put that same mettle into a handful of other diverse area startups but im too winded to generalize on what that looked like right now. I just consult in the non-profit sector now. I just got of a covid-19 project and now im on a rain water / neighborhood development leaning one. To be abundantly transparent, some of my experiences have left me feeling somewhat contentious to the greater industry at large. I'm usually somewhat adversarial to most CMU alum but you seem like a solid enough dude to speak openly to since you seem like someone who'd be sincere in wanting to be a part of something with a good ethos. Im fairly tired right now since i just finished replanting 300 strawberry runbers but If you'd like me to share some of my experiences at a later time id be more than glad to share.

Looking for Swift, Android and Typescript developers to help with camera-preview, an open source cross-platform embedded camera for Capacitor and Ionic. I recently got involved and my goal is to add frame processing so you can run object detection and models on the preview frames. If that's interesting to you then go for it! There's a lot of small tasks too to improve the code base. We're a welcoming community and all contributions are very gratefully received. I take care of the project admin so contributors can focus on what they enjoy. https://github.com/capacitor-community/camera-preview https://github.com/capacitor-community/camera-preview

For those who care about privacy, we're looking for React, backend (AWS) and ML devs, researchers, data scientist, translators, and community builders. YourDigitalRights.org is a free and open source service which helps people regain control of their online privacy by automating the process of sending data deletion requests to organisations, and then provides guidance on how to ensure that requests are resolved favourably. We're a registered charity called Conscious Digital. https://yourdigitalrights.org https://yourdigitalrights.org
- holonsphere 5y ago
  What can you share about the community building side of things?
  - yoaviram 5y ago
    So far we've done very little. That said, there's a lot of energy around the project. People are contributing in various ways, expressing support, writing about it. We'd like to bring it all together. Happy to share more, if you're interested contact us. Email is on the website.

We're actully a group of nerds looking for Go/Cpp engineers familiar with distributed system, database and high performance computing. Vector search is the new trend and let's make something different together~ https://github.com/milvus-io/milvus https://github.com/milvus-io/milvus
- imranq 5y ago
  Vector search is getting a lot of attention these days. Why is that?
  - tartakovsky 5y ago
    Read about pinecone.io. Cut off a neural network that does image classification at the second to last layer and you have a system for creating meaningful vectorial representations. Then if you apply some distance metric to a bunch of these it turns out you can retrieve images that look similar to some query image. Problem is, scaling and doing this in real-time is hard. Use cases abound. This was only one. There are a lot of others too. Pinecone, Vespa.AI, Faiss… Previously this type of tech was only available for the MAANGs of the world. Hope that helps
    - imranq 5y ago
      Thanks! Very helpful
    - thirdtrigger 5y ago
      Agreed! You can check out Weaviate too. It includes out of the box vectorization modules

  Hi, do you have any idea how one goes about making a liquid mode for mobile pdf readers like the adobe pdf app? I am often commuting and have to read on my mobile but I am limited by the fact that adobe only allows 200 pages or less files to be rendered to liquid mode. I would be interested in helping develop this app ( I am not a programmer by profession but have been learning for a few years on my part time)
  - hexomancer 5y ago
    Sorry I have no idea about that. But a quick and dirty fix for your problem could be to split your pdf file into multiple files each with less than 200 pages.

  - borjamoya 5y ago
    Thank you! For those of you asking in the email, I'm working on two genres: (1) Crime/horror. It's basically it's a scene from a feature script I'm writing. The feature is a crime / thriller film, but this specific scene I'm turning into a short leans more towards the horror genre. And (2) Heist film. I'll produce this one after this first one. It's a bit more ambitious so if anyone wants to collaborate on this one it'd be great to start working as soon as possible. Also if anyone wants to collaborate on the production process on set, I'll be filming these in Madrid, Spain.
- HeyLaughingBoy 5y ago
  Do you ever need props built? I was contacted to build something for a film but their deadline was essentially "tomorrow" and would have been impossible to meet. I've done a bunch of similar stuff since then -- embedded controllers for advertising displays and games like you'd find in Chuck-E-Cheese, etc. Always something I wanted to do more of.

I was hoping this would turn out to be more of a 'developers looking to collaborate' instead of a 'looking for developers to work on my idea' thread. I will post my profile and hope that somebody can suggest a nice project to contribute to. Anyway, I'm reasonably experienced in C, have some experience in C++, C++, SQL, VHDL, Python, some HTML and Javascript as well. I have a good mathematical basis and some basis in low-level programming (e.g. assembly, mostly x86). I work mostly on Linux and occassionally on windows. I'm very interested in mathematics and want to learn: APIs for graphics and sound (e.g. win32, x11, OpenGL, ALSA, waveout), digital signal processing. Also very interested in optimization and computational topics such as interval arithmetic, fast approximation/computation of various functions, arbitrary precision arithmetic. Looking to exchange experience with other developers, both more and less experienced.

If anybody is currently doing anything on the Scheme/Clojure side of things around databases, or PL. I'd be interested. These are longer term goals I have, my shorter term goals are focused on a lot of reading to prepare to start to tackle those things in the future. Mostly I'd like to build toy projects of stuff we use every day, but from a good starting place, "the right way", not something hacked together over a weekend, but to learn the details that went into them. Not interested in building another project with another library, but more so writing libraries.

From my recent post: "The thing that could bring the most change to the world is a system that finds everybody a thousand or more best friends based on psychological proximity and compatibility. Don’t tell me it’s impossible to predict whether two people are likely to get along or not based on a bunch of factors that can be analyzed with various techniques including AI. What would the world look like if every single person had a bunch of people who get them because they are almost exactly like them or are highly compatible although different? Imagine having a huge support group that roots for each cause of yours because it’s also theirs. What could you all do together, pulling in the same direction, inspiring each other and contributing your best? I want all of the existing social networks to create a version of this. Create groups out of thin air. You have the data, so use it for something better than serving ads with efficient precision." I've been developing ideas on how to match people, but I can't code. I also want a drawing app that hides all my attempts at a stroke and lets me pick the best one AFTER I'm done generating them: http://zeroprecedent.com/lore/flipmark.html http://zeroprecedent.com/lore/flipmark.html martin dot nenov at gmail dot com

  Have you seen the movie Ron's Gone Wrong? Not trying to make fun of your idea. I just expect you may find this movie especially enjoyable given the problem you are interested in.
  - EZ-Cheeze 5y ago
    I'll watch it!
- erikerikson 5y ago
  Why would you limit it to friendships? Why not to find colleagues? Game theoretic strategy compatibility? The problem comes in how you'd make it real (i.e. implement) and find adoption.
  - EZ-Cheeze 5y ago
    It wouldn't be just friends, but that's how I phrased it there. I called it "supporters" in these 280 characters: "Some people just get along. They are compatible. They mesh. I think it's possible to predict whether any two people will hit it off, and to create groups composed entirely of highly compatible, highly synergistic people. What will happen when EVERYONE has a THOUSAND SUPPORTERS?" And it wouldn't just be friends or supporters, either: "Just as the system can find those who are your mirror reflection by minimizing adjacency distances, so it can find your very antithesis by maximizing them, as well as anything in-between." That's from this post which explores implementation: https://zeroprecedent.substack.com/p/a-technique-for-generating-endless?s=r https://zeroprecedent.substack.com/p/a-technique-for-generat... I think after implementation, adoption is inevitable since the value is truly insane, better than anything else online (unless you're antisocial, etc.)

I am doing research on how to measure the energy consumption and thus carbon emission of software. The toolchain will be open-source and the data free use. Currently it is only a prototype and there are many open research questions to be solved. If any of you is interested in this topic or would like to connect please feel free to contact me. Currently we are a team of two and I also have backed the research through my own company and can supply compensation for the open source work. Would love to find like minded people in this domain. https://github.com/green-coding-berlin/green-metrics-tool https://github.com/green-coding-berlin/green-metrics-tool / https://www.green-coding.org https://www.green-coding.org

  Do you know about https://eco.kde.org https://eco.kde.org, it's a project under the kde umbrella (but not only for kde) that is sponsored by the German government with the goal of both doing measurements and defining how a eco friendly software should work. Okular was recently awarded the blue angel certification: https://eco.kde.org/blog/2022-03-16-press-release-okular-blue-angel/ https://eco.kde.org/blog/2022-03-16-press-release-okular-blu...
  - ArneTR 5y ago
    I am aware of the label and also that Okular got the first certification in Germany. However I believe that the certification in its current form has limited value. But we thrive to integrate it into our toolchain. Have you been part of the team that went through the certification process? I would love to get in touch and ask some questions :)
    - ognarb 4y ago
      I'm not part of the team did the certification process (just know some of them as I'm involved with plasma mobile and contribute occasionally to Okular), if you want to get in touch with them better ask them in the mailing list or matrix channel linked in https://eco.kde.org/ https://eco.kde.org/ ;)

Sure, would love to collaborate on the Spinup project. It's in its early stage, so a lot of opportunities to have a huge impact. https://github.com/spinup-host/spinup https://github.com/spinup-host/spinup. Any open source RDS alternative. We do have a bi-weekly standup and a small group of 5 members. Most of us just want to learn Go, Docker and Databases. Feel free to ask any questions. Thanks.

I've been doing a bit of work in the esports space. Two projects, the first which allows freelance coaches to leave reviews on footage that's been given to them. You can see an example of a coach using it here: https://kilk-valorant.vodon.gg/ https://kilk-valorant.vodon.gg/ The other is a tool that I've built in conjunction with a coach from a French esports team which allows the coach to add footage of the individuals players in a match, synchronise the videos, then view the match while jumping around each of the individual viewpoints instantly. This is an open source tool here: https://github.com/Rodeoclash/vodon-pro https://github.com/Rodeoclash/vodon-pro (I have some ideas around hosted services to support the review process which could be subscription based). At heart I'm a developer, so I'd really like to connect with someone who is both in the esports space and business focused. Contact details in my HN profile.

I'm looking to collaborate with a game developer. I have an idea for a special kind of EdTech game for a niche audience and would like to build a business out of bringing such games to market. I'm a software engineer in the data science and web backend space myself, but would like to be involved in this more from a business angle. I would take care of marketing and would front a marketing budget. The developer would get no cash compensation, but a majority share in the profits generated. The total amount of time investment required would probably measure in the 100s (rather than 1000s) of person-hours and the timescale is very flexible. Please email gyulai dot a22 at zedernkind dot com.

Visualizing political data :) I've done various 'pet projects' over the years in this realm, from exploring political bias in word embeddings to simple voting maps showing regional shifts, to comparisons of actual crime vs fear of crime across various demographics. I've even gotten to partner up with actual journalism outlets. I love doing this stuff but I'd like to collaborate with others (either with technical or promotional capacity) to make these kinds of tools more useful, relevant, and ultimately actually inform people better.

If anyone is in the XR space (Sway/Wlroots/Monado) I'm slowly working on getting into that. Full disclosure I am a supporter/consumer of SimulaVR and I'm trying to learn their codebase however I'm coming from a different place/easier stuff eg. React/Node/Python/C++. So transitioning to Haskell/Godot/the above has been difficult. I'm kinda looking for someone interested in this space who can easily look through that code/read it and know how it works. What I'm looking for is kind of a mentor that can glance through the codebase/figure out the "abstraction" of how the code works and then I can work off of that as I continue to learn the stack. Also the Nix ecosystem is new to me, trying to learn that as well, I use a Valve Index, working on changing stuff/rebuilding/trying it out in real time. I'm in their discord but I'm trying to learn this on the side so I can be part of the XR space in the future. For personal or professional means, one day I will have one of those Simula One devices so I want to be able to work on the software it uses. As far as quid pro quo what I work on in day job is random stuff in web space. I'm a CRUD/code-gluer type developer. I develop/work on an eSign/video platform for example. I just have not done much work on lower level/more native stuff like this. So I can offer help in that space, setup servers, build some API, bridge APIs together, reverse engineer some API, I can use cross platform tech like Electron to make "native" apps too. Draw an interface and I can build it in html/css/js as I was a front-ender for a while. I realize this is probably not what collaboration means, my bad about that. I want to "collaborate" on this space but I'm a noob is what I'm saying. Will note this is not an immediate thing, I am aware it's going to take me a while to learn this and I have some other things to take care of before I completely dive into this on my spare time.

I’m happy to collaborate on Authorizer - a hardware password manager based on old Android phones. Next milestone: smartcard integration over USB. I would like to build a lib to abstract USB Gadgets on Linux. This is necessary for adding smartcard support (e.g., to store your GPG keys in Authorizer). I already did a lot of research about it, but more on an amateur level as I’m not a kernel dev. One further milestone on Authorizer is finding a next device (cheap, not too old Android, smaller, …) to base the development on.

  I'm not sure I 100% follow. It says "bike computer" do you mean a literal computer attached to the bicycle? I saw the github it shows some software runing on PineTime. Edit: actually I guess that is not the PineTime in the photo, knob is on the right side.
  - dcz_self 5y ago
    A bike computer is the name for a device you put on your bike to show you useful info like speed etc. Typically they are about as flexible as calculators, but this CPU has been shown to run Doom, so it's a general-purpose computer too :) https://github.com/next-hack/nRF52840Doom https://github.com/next-hack/nRF52840Doom

      Whoa that's pretty neat. Do you have a physical prototype yet like a 3D printed case around it, battery, etc? I know you mentioned GPS but wondering if you would consider a hardware input like an rpm reader on the tires.
      - dcz_self 5y ago
        Yes, I have ordered a batch of smart watches that go on the handlebars, same as the prototype on the photo. I will sell them together with a Bluetooth wheel/cadence sensor once I figure out Bluetooth.

If anyone has decent experience in C#/.NET and/or graphics programming, you are welcome to join the developer team of the Stride game engine. https://github.com/stride3d/stride https://github.com/stride3d/stride The code base is already mature and very professional. The quality standards are fairly high, but that's a nice challenge and you can even learn a lot, depending on your level of experience. As for the history, Stride was developed commercially by Silicon Studio for about 10 years but couldn't complete with the big two on that level. So it was open-sourced about 3 years ago and the main developer is still maintaining it, but he has a full-time job. The team isn't very big yet, but quite capable people. It's a great product and the only truly open-source C# game engine with a high-end render engine and proper asset pipeline. The shader system is the best I've ever seen, it's absolutely mind-blowing. Let me know if you want to learn more about it... Or hop onto the discord server and have a chat: https://discord.gg/f6aerfE https://discord.gg/f6aerfE

Rethinking how tech can make learning better! I think how we teach is stuck in the stone-ages, even though we as a society have learnt so much more of what works. I have worked in the EdTech industry, and feel the opportunity to help individuals create incredible 'courses'. I have built multiple tools and am especially looking to collaborate with people who want to deploy interesting things. MVP: https://implicit.io/ https://implicit.io/
srid68 5y ago
I would like to collaborate with anyone who is interested in the following topics like More Assembly Less Building for Creating Software Apps, More Declarative Less Imperative for Creating Software Apps, More Prototype UI vs Less Requirements Documentation. Portable vs Centralised/Decentralised Software, Multi-Platform with Common Abstraction vs Cross Platform, Design for the Forest (System) vs Design for the Trees (Individual Components). I have been researching on abstractions which help me to assemble software UI and using it in my freelance web ui projects using more and more declarative and less and less imperative coding practices. Recently I think the abstractions are stable so I started creating a tool for assembling static and static data web UI which I have published as a web site https://gluuie.com https://gluuie.com and also in GitHub https://github.com/Arshu/AssembleWebApps https://github.com/Arshu/AssembleWebApps. Still a long way to go before you can truly assembly all types of UI like static, static data, dynamic, realtime and reactive UI, but the test pages which I have started building seems to show that this is possible, but still require more research Anyway this helps in my freelance projects where I have build a VCard Management System,Warehouse Management System, Sales Order Management System and Print Label Management System all using backend as Microsoft Business Central to validate the abstractions. Currently implement Git Integration and Importing of Data (Html/Json/Css/Js) Components using different CSS Framework like Tailwind, Bootstrap from Git Repositories to validate Parallel Assembly. Also spending time on extracting the assembler runtime to open source the Html/Json assembler.

I solved the problem of formalization of constitutions in set theory, I mean the original/ideal/natural form and scope of them (not the formalization of existing constitutions like [1] or [2]). It is a kind of Archimedean fixed point, a set theoretical place to stand, but we will not move the whole world. On the contrary: we shall put it into an order, into the natural order of free and equivalent persons. I started to publish my results on the site of the Metamath theorem prover [1]). I want to find some programmers/engineers to help with this.

- sgoto 5y ago
  Ah, that's quite interesting! I'm going through a similar process of formalization, but starting from Wikipedia (but law did indeed cross my mind as a good candidate for formalization too). I'm also starting from a set-theoretic-like starting point, but am using Discourse Representation Theory to express it in a higher level language that is a subset of english. https://code.sgo.to/2021/01/06/brazil.html https://code.sgo.to/2021/01/06/brazil.html Find on twitter in case you are interested in telling me more about formalizing the constitution? https://twitter.com/samuelgoto https://twitter.com/samuelgoto FWIW, metamath looks really awesome, will look more closely into it!
  - mazsa 5y ago
    Hi Sam, you are completely right: the next step after the Metamath definitions and theorems for the constitutions should be very similar to your [1]. Based on your answer I compiled a list of perhaps useful links for you: [2]. Would you be so kind as to send me an email from your personal email address? I have a catchall address: anything at my username dot com.

Think: a wikipedia + stackoverflow interface / workflow, for producing outputs like duolingo, khanacademy. github.com/nilock/vue-skuilder It's been an every-other Sunday project for years, and while its current state / issue definitions / architecture isn't amenable to general collaboration, there are a couple of areas where an hour or two from someone who really knows the specific problem could save me 10+ hours (or 3 hours of abandoned spec-work). - frontend tooling migration, specifically Vuetify 1.5x -> 2 - vue code-base migration: specifically migrating away from class-based-components (they seem more or less deprecated - change my mind!) - evolutionary methods of curvefitting - couch / pouchdb: - practices for version control / ci of couchdb design docs - practices for using pouchdb as to locally cache subsets of specific couch databases If you think this sort of project has merit & you've got the above expertise, feel free to open a collab issue or contact directly: colin at mrkennedy dot ca

I have no code skills but I have an idea for an app that would help volunteers get paid by donation via qr codes and social media. I believe that would help lower income people who want to volunteer or introverts who want to get out and do good for the earth without joining a group. The main goal would be picking up trash.

  I’ve had this exact idea before. How do you imagine the QR code would be shared?

I’m a software engineer trying to build open-source, DIY friendly carbon capture machines in my spare time. My current project is an electrolyzer that turns a pure CO2 stream + water into other useful molecules. I’d love to collaborate with anyone with anyone who wants to make a dent in the climate change problem. Chemistry experience a plus, but not necessary. Come find me in the OpenAir discord (https://openaircollective.cc https://openaircollective.cc)

We’ve (our team) been working on a generative, always-on interactive television show/game that uses a combination of machine learning, generative algorithms, and more, to create media content fully autonomously. We’ve been at it for 3 years now and have a fully working prototype, but recently our backend developer took a job at Amazon, so we’re short a dev to continue developing the project. Our stack is a combination of JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python. Happy to share videos and links to our Twitch livestream, if interested. We think the world is trending toward niche, hyper targeted entertainment, and that generative methods are going to be the dominant way to create games, television shows, movies, and more heading into the future. You can contact me at skyler at mismatchmedia dotcom.

I'm building pagespace.app, a platform to create, publish and sell longer form HTML-based content. The vision is a cross between Substack and Github for longer form content. I mention Github because much like code, good content and knowledge should improve and change over time and have lots of "commits". Tech stack is Elixir, Vue 3, Prosemirror/TipTap on Kubernetes. Looking for cofounders/partners.

I'm building a spiritual successor of the Base/FoxPro family of languages (https://tablam.org https://tablam.org) that marry ML + relational + array paradigms with a bit of imperative support. This is on Rust, and apart of the fancy buzzwords, what it set apart from many is that it (plan to!) be a better fit for business/data intensive applications. Now I'm reworking the whole parsing so i can get great error messages like as Rust/Elm. --- As long-term plans, I wish to be like FoxPro/Access and be a full-stack development environment, with nice RDBMS integration, and how know, maybe build a new kind of RDBMs.

I'd like to make a website that provides movies and series recommendations based on your preferences. Like letterboxd but extended to series (and other things?) and with open data so that anybody can improve on the recommendation system. Got this idea browsing rotten tomatoes and realizing you can't order lists based on users scores. And the API is private. So, putting your score there is basically donating it to a private for-profit company. The technical side would be easy I guess, a UI and a DB. You would need to populate it but there are some open databases already [0] and you can always scrap IMDB. The recommendation engine would require some ML that I am not familiar with but we can always figure something out. The tough part would be to have people come in and provide scoring. This requires marketing on a 0$ budget and/or networking which is a people skill I absolutely don't have. If anybody have investigated that space, I'd be willing to help on the grunt/technical side.

Hi, I'm Matthew, here's a project that isn't as technical as others, but still related to programming :) I'm running a non-profit in Florida called Tampa Bay Python [0] that has a meetup group [1] of 1,800 members. I'm looking for someone who is interested in growing the organization with me into a strong community name. We're funded mostly by donations and the rest out of my own pocket. Some things I am planning on introducing in the coming months are: - more hackathon and interview prep-like events - more technical presentations (presented by myself & others who have asked to speak on a topic) - a monthly newsletter about: python news, open job reqs, tips & tricks Longer term goals are: - perform multi-day workshops & training courses - work with local universities to find volunteer contributors to the org - find employers who are hiring and push candidates to their pipeline - find other non-profit projects that need contributors Our team is comprised of 2 others who are remote, so all async communication is held on Slack & Notion. My background: write Python for day job as distributed systems engineer, but really enjoy working with people, especially newbies and self-starters. If you're interested, reach out to me personally at: mgranda [at] tampabaypython [dot] org.

If anyone is looking to dabble in the search space, I'm considering opening up Marginalia a bit. It's written in Java but it's also based on REST services so other languages could be integrated, no big deal as it's not within some particularly hot code loop. The entire project is basically an excuse to dick around with NLP, low level programming, weird algorithms, large datasets; you know, the sort of programming that's actually fun. I also have a metric shit-ton of real world data and metadata to play with. I'm half looking to open source it partially or entirely (probably AGPL), but I'm working on ironing out some details about the format. Not really sure what model works since it requires niche hardware to run, manual maintenance to operate, it's a nightmare to test, and so on.

I am working on Glicol, the next generation computer music language that runs in browsers and many other platforms. The goal is to help people with zero coding and music production background to get started with music programming. Yet it is also quite innovative and revolutionary as few languages can have these features together: - run in browsers with a near native speed - rethink music interaction in live coding from the audio library design perspective - come with a new collaboration mechanism with decentralized demo - run on different DAWs as a VST plugin - run on development boards such as Bela - support both high-level music sequencing and low-level sample-level audio synthesis You can try it here: https://glicol.org/ https://glicol.org/ It would be great that if you can give me some feedback here or on GitHub: https://github.com/chaosprint/glicol https://github.com/chaosprint/glicol

I've been working for the past few years to build better (and free) tools for DJs and artists. I'm interested in the mixing (pun in tended) of arts and technology, and in creating communities in healthier spaces than Facebook, for example. It would be fun to find other artists to share ideas and collaborate on projects. In addition of the most visible project which is a streaming site for DJs called Slipmat.io, I've also built a ton of related tooling around the process of planning, preparing and hosting (live) radio shows, for example: - Playlist parser for converting playlists from DJ software to text and/or HTML for aftermarketing: https://playlists.slipmat.io https://playlists.slipmat.io - POC show scripting app for collaborative planning of radio shows: https://scripter.labs.slipmat.io https://scripter.labs.slipmat.io - POC app for planning and organizing (virtual or physical) festivals across several timezones: https://eventplanner.vercel.app https://eventplanner.vercel.app - A tool for DJs to take requests during live events using their DJ app music collection as a source for listeners to search from (early demo from 2017: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9HkLoKrTqs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9HkLoKrTqs ) - A simple desktop soundboard app w/ MIDI-control: https://github.com/slipmatio/soundboard https://github.com/slipmatio/soundboard I have a vision of building basically the GitLab for artists: a comprehensive tool stack for collaborative planning and playing live shows, marketing, and connecting with listeners, all in one easy to use place. The current stack of all my projects is Python (Django, Starlette/FastAPI) and TypeScript (Vue). I've recently started to re-write the older stuff and in the process open source the parts. All the recent projects are now on GitHub: https://github.com/slipmatio https://github.com/slipmatio If you're interested in collaboration or testing out some of these tools, you can contact me either by email ville @ the project domain, or ping @uninen on twitter :)

I have maybe 8 years of soft experience working with artists in the creative space (music, video, retro game dev, etc#)and 4 years of experience in b2b enterprise sales in the SaaS space. I had a run through alphalabs and i live in the Pittsburgh area. My company worked with hundreds of local orgs - schools, hospitals, retail, etc# providing IT services and ive provided warehouse/staffing management related logistics(?) consulting for two fortune 500s. Ive put that same mettle into a handful of other diverse area startups but im too winded to generalize on what that looked like right now. I just consult in the non-profit sector now. I just got of a covid-19 project and now im on a rain water / neighborhood development leaning one. To be abundantly transparent, some of my experiences have left me feeling somewhat contentious to the greater industry at large. I'm usually somewhat adversarial to most CMU alum but you seem like a solid enough dude to speak openly to since you seem like someone who'd be sincere in wanting to be a part of something with a good ethos. Im fairly tired right now since i just finished replanting 300 strawberry runbers but If you'd like me to share some of my experiences at a later time id be more than glad to share.

Vector search is getting a lot of attention these days. Why is that?
- tartakovsky 5y ago
  Read about pinecone.io. Cut off a neural network that does image classification at the second to last layer and you have a system for creating meaningful vectorial representations. Then if you apply some distance metric to a bunch of these it turns out you can retrieve images that look similar to some query image. Problem is, scaling and doing this in real-time is hard. Use cases abound. This was only one. There are a lot of others too. Pinecone, Vespa.AI, Faiss… Previously this type of tech was only available for the MAANGs of the world. Hope that helps

Hi, do you have any idea how one goes about making a liquid mode for mobile pdf readers like the adobe pdf app?

I would be interested in helping develop this app ( I am not a programmer by profession but have been learning for a few years on my part time)

  Sorry I have no idea about that. But a quick and dirty fix for your problem could be to split your pdf file into multiple files each with less than 200 pages.

I was hoping this would turn out to be more of a 'developers looking to collaborate' instead of a 'looking for developers to work on my idea' thread. I will post my profile and hope that somebody can suggest a nice project to contribute to. Anyway, I'm reasonably experienced in C, have some experience in C++, C++, SQL, VHDL, Python, some HTML and Javascript as well. I have a good mathematical basis and some basis in low-level programming (e.g. assembly, mostly x86). I work mostly on Linux and occassionally on windows. I'm very interested in mathematics and want to learn: APIs for graphics and sound (e.g. win32, x11, OpenGL, ALSA, waveout), digital signal processing. Also very interested in optimization and computational topics such as interval arithmetic, fast approximation/computation of various functions, arbitrary precision arithmetic. Looking to exchange experience with other developers, both more and less experienced.

From my recent post: "The thing that could bring the most change to the world is a system that finds everybody a thousand or more best friends based on psychological proximity and compatibility. Don’t tell me it’s impossible to predict whether two people are likely to get along or not based on a bunch of factors that can be analyzed with various techniques including AI. What would the world look like if every single person had a bunch of people who get them because they are almost exactly like them or are highly compatible although different? Imagine having a huge support group that roots for each cause of yours because it’s also theirs. What could you all do together, pulling in the same direction, inspiring each other and contributing your best? I want all of the existing social networks to create a version of this. Create groups out of thin air. You have the data, so use it for something better than serving ads with efficient precision." I've been developing ideas on how to match people, but I can't code. I also want a drawing app that hides all my attempts at a stroke and lets me pick the best one AFTER I'm done generating them: http://zeroprecedent.com/lore/flipmark.html http://zeroprecedent.com/lore/flipmark.html martin dot nenov at gmail dot com

Why would you limit it to friendships? Why not to find colleagues? Game theoretic strategy compatibility? The problem comes in how you'd make it real (i.e. implement) and find adoption.
- EZ-Cheeze 5y ago
  It wouldn't be just friends, but that's how I phrased it there. I called it "supporters" in these 280 characters: "Some people just get along. They are compatible. They mesh. I think it's possible to predict whether any two people will hit it off, and to create groups composed entirely of highly compatible, highly synergistic people. What will happen when EVERYONE has a THOUSAND SUPPORTERS?" And it wouldn't just be friends or supporters, either: "Just as the system can find those who are your mirror reflection by minimizing adjacency distances, so it can find your very antithesis by maximizing them, as well as anything in-between." That's from this post which explores implementation: https://zeroprecedent.substack.com/p/a-technique-for-generating-endless?s=r https://zeroprecedent.substack.com/p/a-technique-for-generat... I think after implementation, adoption is inevitable since the value is truly insane, better than anything else online (unless you're antisocial, etc.)

It's in its early stage, so a lot of opportunities to have a huge impact. https://github.com/spinup-host/spinup https://github.com/spinup-host/spinup. Any open source RDS alternative. We do have a bi-weekly standup and a small group of 5 members. Most of us just want to learn Go, Docker and Databases. Feel free to ask any questions. Thanks.

I've been doing a bit of work in the esports space. Two projects, the first which allows freelance coaches to leave reviews on footage that's been given to them. You can see an example of a coach using it here: https://kilk-valorant.vodon.gg/ https://kilk-valorant.vodon.gg/ The other is a tool that I've built in conjunction with a coach from a French esports team which allows the coach to add footage of the individuals players in a match, synchronise the videos, then view the match while jumping around each of the individual viewpoints instantly. This is an open source tool here: https://github.com/Rodeoclash/vodon-pro https://github.com/Rodeoclash/vodon-pro (I have some ideas around hosted services to support the review process which could be subscription based). At heart I'm a developer, so I'd really like to connect with someone who is both in the esports space and business focused. Contact details in my HN profile.

Next month I will post my own stuff in this thread but for this month I want to highlight the much more active efforts of the whereiseveryone crowd. Please join us in making guix great! https://git.sr.ht/~whereiseveryone/guixrus#manifesto https://git.sr.ht/~whereiseveryone/guixrus#manifesto We have meetups also every month to discuss documentation and packaging. Next month I will also start a meetup for datalisp (which you could see as configuration meetup, i.e. how to run your own system).

I'm looking to collaborate with a game developer. I have an idea for a special kind of EdTech game for a niche audience and would like to build a business out of bringing such games to market. I'm a software engineer in the data science and web backend space myself, but would like to be involved in this more from a business angle. I would take care of marketing and would front a marketing budget. The developer would get no cash compensation, but a majority share in the profits generated. The total amount of time investment required would probably measure in the 100s (rather than 1000s) of person-hours and the timescale is very flexible. Please email gyulai dot a22 at zedernkind dot com.

Visualizing political data :) I've done various 'pet projects' over the years in this realm, from exploring political bias in word embeddings to simple voting maps showing regional shifts, to comparisons of actual crime vs fear of crime across various demographics. I've even gotten to partner up with actual journalism outlets. I love doing this stuff but I'd like to collaborate with others (either with technical or promotional capacity) to make these kinds of tools more useful, relevant, and ultimately actually inform people better.

If anyone is in the XR space (Sway/Wlroots/Monado) I'm slowly working on getting into that. Full disclosure I am a supporter/consumer of SimulaVR and I'm trying to learn their codebase however I'm coming from a different place/easier stuff eg. React/Node/Python/C++. So transitioning to Haskell/Godot/the above has been difficult. I'm kinda looking for someone interested in this space who can easily look through that code/read it and know how it works. What I'm looking for is kind of a mentor that can glance through the codebase/figure out the "abstraction" of how the code works and then I can work off of that as I continue to learn the stack. Also the Nix ecosystem is new to me, trying to learn that as well, I use a Valve Index, working on changing stuff/rebuilding/trying it out in real time. I'm in their discord but I'm trying to learn this on the side so I can be part of the XR space in the future. For personal or professional means, one day I will have one of those Simula One devices so I want to be able to work on the software it uses. As far as quid pro quo what I work on in day job is random stuff in web space. I'm a CRUD/code-gluer type developer. I develop/work on an eSign/video platform for example. I just have not done much work on lower level/more native stuff like this. So I can offer help in that space, setup servers, build some API, bridge APIs together, reverse engineer some API, I can use cross platform tech like Electron to make "native" apps too. Draw an interface and I can build it in html/css/js as I was a front-ender for a while. I realize this is probably not what collaboration means, my bad about that. I want to "collaborate" on this space but I'm a noob is what I'm saying. Will note this is not an immediate thing, I am aware it's going to take me a while to learn this and I have some other things to take care of before I completely dive into this on my spare time.

I’m happy to collaborate on Authorizer - a hardware password manager based on old Android phones. Next milestone: smartcard integration over USB. I would like to build a lib to abstract USB Gadgets on Linux. This is necessary for adding smartcard support (e.g., to store your GPG keys in Authorizer). I already did a lot of research about it, but more on an amateur level as I’m not a kernel dev. One further milestone on Authorizer is finding a next device (cheap, not too old Android, smaller, …) to base the development on.

Greetings, I’m working on my first “real” Rust project which is an IRC bot for the #f1 channel on Libera. All it does is post the results of a race into the channel. You can find the code at: https://github.com/obviyus/hamverbot https://github.com/obviyus/hamverbot It’s my first time building something async in Rust and using Tokio so I’d love to have some experienced Crustacean eyeballs on it.

I'm still going at my bike computer - you know, the open source, hackable one.

I could use some help adding new drivers (esp. Bluetooth, but also simple ones like touch screen) and if someone explained Bluetooth Low Energy or Apache NimBLE to me, that would be awesome. Contact me here or through the web page (which needs some work too): https://jazda.org/community/ https://jazda.org/community/

I'm not sure I 100% follow. It says "bike computer" do you mean a literal computer attached to the bicycle? I saw the github it shows some software runing on PineTime. Edit: actually I guess that is not the PineTime in the photo, knob is on the right side.
- dcz_self 5y ago
  A bike computer is the name for a device you put on your bike to show you useful info like speed etc. Typically they are about as flexible as calculators, but this CPU has been shown to run Doom, so it's a general-purpose computer too :) https://github.com/next-hack/nRF52840Doom https://github.com/next-hack/nRF52840Doom
  - ge96 5y ago
    Whoa that's pretty neat. Do you have a physical prototype yet like a 3D printed case around it, battery, etc? I know you mentioned GPS but wondering if you would consider a hardware input like an rpm reader on the tires.
    - dcz_self 5y ago
      Yes, I have ordered a batch of smart watches that go on the handlebars, same as the prototype on the photo. I will sell them together with a Bluetooth wheel/cadence sensor once I figure out Bluetooth.

If anyone has decent experience in C#/.NET and/or graphics programming, you are welcome to join the developer team of the Stride game engine. https://github.com/stride3d/stride https://github.com/stride3d/stride The code base is already mature and very professional. The quality standards are fairly high, but that's a nice challenge and you can even learn a lot, depending on your level of experience. As for the history, Stride was developed commercially by Silicon Studio for about 10 years but couldn't complete with the big two on that level. So it was open-sourced about 3 years ago and the main developer is still maintaining it, but he has a full-time job. The team isn't very big yet, but quite capable people. It's a great product and the only truly open-source C# game engine with a high-end render engine and proper asset pipeline. The shader system is the best I've ever seen, it's absolutely mind-blowing. Let me know if you want to learn more about it... Or hop onto the discord server and have a chat: https://discord.gg/f6aerfE https://discord.gg/f6aerfE

I would like to collaborate with anyone who is interested in the following topics like More Assembly Less Building for Creating Software Apps, More Declarative Less Imperative for Creating Software Apps, More Prototype UI vs Less Requirements Documentation. Portable vs Centralised/Decentralised Software, Multi-Platform with Common Abstraction vs Cross Platform, Design for the Forest (System) vs Design for the Trees (Individual Components). I have been researching on abstractions which help me to assemble software UI and using it in my freelance web ui projects using more and more declarative and less and less imperative coding practices. Recently I think the abstractions are stable so I started creating a tool for assembling static and static data web UI which I have published as a web site https://gluuie.com https://gluuie.com and also in GitHub https://github.com/Arshu/AssembleWebApps https://github.com/Arshu/AssembleWebApps. Still a long way to go before you can truly assembly all types of UI like static, static data, dynamic, realtime and reactive UI, but the test pages which I have started building seems to show that this is possible, but still require more research Anyway this helps in my freelance projects where I have build a VCard Management System,Warehouse Management System, Sales Order Management System and Print Label Management System all using backend as Microsoft Business Central to validate the abstractions. Currently implement Git Integration and Importing of Data (Html/Json/Css/Js) Components using different CSS Framework like Tailwind, Bootstrap from Git Repositories to validate Parallel Assembly. Also spending time on extracting the assembler runtime to open source the Html/Json assembler.

I solved the problem of formalization of constitutions in set theory, I mean the original/ideal/natural form and scope of them (not the formalization of existing constitutions like [1] or [2]). It is a kind of Archimedean fixed point, a set theoretical place to stand, but we will not move the whole world. On the contrary: we shall put it into an order, into the natural order of free and equivalent persons. I started to publish my results on the site of the Metamath theorem prover [1]). I want to find some programmers/engineers to help with this.

sgoto 5y ago
Ah, that's quite interesting! I'm going through a similar process of formalization, but starting from Wikipedia (but law did indeed cross my mind as a good candidate for formalization too). I'm also starting from a set-theoretic-like starting point, but am using Discourse Representation Theory to express it in a higher level language that is a subset of english. https://code.sgo.to/2021/01/06/brazil.html https://code.sgo.to/2021/01/06/brazil.html Find on twitter in case you are interested in telling me more about formalizing the constitution? https://twitter.com/samuelgoto https://twitter.com/samuelgoto FWIW, metamath looks really awesome, will look more closely into it!
- mazsa 5y ago
  Hi Sam, you are completely right: the next step after the Metamath definitions and theorems for the constitutions should be very similar to your [1]. Based on your answer I compiled a list of perhaps useful links for you: [2]. Would you be so kind as to send me an email from your personal email address? I have a catchall address: anything at my username dot com.

I'm working on a GPL platform + framework for mass-collaborative interactive tutoring systems. Think: a wikipedia + stackoverflow interface / workflow, for producing outputs like duolingo, khanacademy. github.com/nilock/vue-skuilder It's been an every-other Sunday project for years, and while its current state / issue definitions / architecture isn't amenable to general collaboration, there are a couple of areas where an hour or two from someone who really knows the specific problem could save me 10+ hours (or 3 hours of abandoned spec-work). - frontend tooling migration, specifically Vuetify 1.5x -> 2 - vue code-base migration: specifically migrating away from class-based-components (they seem more or less deprecated - change my mind!) - evolutionary methods of curvefitting - couch / pouchdb: - practices for version control / ci of couchdb design docs - practices for using pouchdb as to locally cache subsets of specific couch databases If you think this sort of project has merit & you've got the above expertise, feel free to open a collab issue or contact directly: colin at mrkennedy dot ca

We’ve (our team) been working on a generative, always-on interactive television show/game that uses a combination of machine learning, generative algorithms, and more, to create media content fully autonomously. We’ve been at it for 3 years now and have a fully working prototype, but recently our backend developer took a job at Amazon, so we’re short a dev to continue developing the project. Our stack is a combination of JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python. Happy to share videos and links to our Twitch livestream, if interested. We think the world is trending toward niche, hyper targeted entertainment, and that generative methods are going to be the dominant way to create games, television shows, movies, and more heading into the future. You can contact me at skyler at mismatchmedia dotcom.

I'm building a spiritual successor of the Base/FoxPro family of languages (https://tablam.org https://tablam.org) that marry ML + relational + array paradigms with a bit of imperative support. This is on Rust, and apart of the fancy buzzwords, what it set apart from many is that it (plan to!) be a better fit for business/data intensive applications. Now I'm reworking the whole parsing so i can get great error messages like as Rust/Elm. --- As long-term plans, I wish to be like FoxPro/Access and be a full-stack development environment, with nice RDBMS integration, and how know, maybe build a new kind of RDBMs.

I'd like to make a website that provides movies and series recommendations based on your preferences. Like letterboxd but extended to series (and other things?) and with open data so that anybody can improve on the recommendation system. Got this idea browsing rotten tomatoes and realizing you can't order lists based on users scores. And the API is private. So, putting your score there is basically donating it to a private for-profit company. The technical side would be easy I guess, a UI and a DB. You would need to populate it but there are some open databases already [0] and you can always scrap IMDB. The recommendation engine would require some ML that I am not familiar with but we can always figure something out. The tough part would be to have people come in and provide scoring. This requires marketing on a 0$ budget and/or networking which is a people skill I absolutely don't have. If anybody have investigated that space, I'd be willing to help on the grunt/technical side.

Hi, I'm Matthew, here's a project that isn't as technical as others, but still related to programming :) I'm running a non-profit in Florida called Tampa Bay Python [0] that has a meetup group [1] of 1,800 members. I'm looking for someone who is interested in growing the organization with me into a strong community name. We're funded mostly by donations and the rest out of my own pocket. Some things I am planning on introducing in the coming months are: - more hackathon and interview prep-like events - more technical presentations (presented by myself & others who have asked to speak on a topic) - a monthly newsletter about: python news, open job reqs, tips & tricks Longer term goals are: - perform multi-day workshops & training courses - work with local universities to find volunteer contributors to the org - find employers who are hiring and push candidates to their pipeline - find other non-profit projects that need contributors Our team is comprised of 2 others who are remote, so all async communication is held on Slack & Notion. My background: write Python for day job as distributed systems engineer, but really enjoy working with people, especially newbies and self-starters. If you're interested, reach out to me personally at: mgranda [at] tampabaypython [dot] org.

If anyone is looking to dabble in the search space, I'm considering opening up Marginalia a bit. It's written in Java but it's also based on REST services so other languages could be integrated, no big deal as it's not within some particularly hot code loop. The entire project is basically an excuse to dick around with NLP, low level programming, weird algorithms, large datasets; you know, the sort of programming that's actually fun. I also have a metric shit-ton of real world data and metadata to play with. I'm half looking to open source it partially or entirely (probably AGPL), but I'm working on ironing out some details about the format. Not really sure what model works since it requires niche hardware to run, manual maintenance to operate, it's a nightmare to test, and so on.

I am working on Glicol, the next generation computer music language that runs in browsers and many other platforms. The goal is to help people with zero coding and music production background to get started with music programming. Yet it is also quite innovative and revolutionary as few languages can have these features together: - run in browsers with a near native speed - rethink music interaction in live coding from the audio library design perspective - come with a new collaboration mechanism with decentralized demo - run on different DAWs as a VST plugin - run on development boards such as Bela - support both high-level music sequencing and low-level sample-level audio synthesis You can try it here: https://glicol.org/ https://glicol.org/ It would be great that if you can give me some feedback here or on GitHub: https://github.com/chaosprint/glicol https://github.com/chaosprint/glicol

I've been working for the past few years to build better (and free) tools for DJs and artists. I'm interested in the mixing (pun in tended) of arts and technology, and in creating communities in healthier spaces than Facebook, for example. It would be fun to find other artists to share ideas and collaborate on projects. In addition of the most visible project which is a streaming site for DJs called Slipmat.io, I've also built a ton of related tooling around the process of planning, preparing and hosting (live) radio shows, for example: - Playlist parser for converting playlists from DJ software to text and/or HTML for aftermarketing: https://playlists.slipmat.io https://playlists.slipmat.io - POC show scripting app for collaborative planning of radio shows: https://scripter.labs.slipmat.io https://scripter.labs.slipmat.io - POC app for planning and organizing (virtual or physical) festivals across several timezones: https://eventplanner.vercel.app https://eventplanner.vercel.app - A tool for DJs to take requests during live events using their DJ app music collection as a source for listeners to search from (early demo from 2017: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9HkLoKrTqs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9HkLoKrTqs ) - A simple desktop soundboard app w/ MIDI-control: https://github.com/slipmatio/soundboard https://github.com/slipmatio/soundboard I have a vision of building basically the GitLab for artists: a comprehensive tool stack for collaborative planning and playing live shows, marketing, and connecting with listeners, all in one easy to use place. The current stack of all my projects is Python (Django, Starlette/FastAPI) and TypeScript (Vue). I've recently started to re-write the older stuff and in the process open source the parts. All the recent projects are now on GitHub: https://github.com/slipmatio https://github.com/slipmatio If you're interested in collaboration or testing out some of these tools, you can contact me either by email ville @ the project domain, or ping @uninen on twitter :)
