Don’t have an active project at the moment, but would be interested in brainstorming potential ideas. Have experience throughout the stack and interested in areas of ML, AI, and Crypto. Feel free to reach out if you’re interested in potentially collaborating.

Hi, I have been working on a trading bot for crypto in rust for the last ~18 months. The agent and the infrastructure (collecting and preprocessing data) are up and running. I have been collecting and cleaning TBs (yes TBs) of data for ~1 year now. However, I have way too little knowledge in ML/AI and it is very hard to fill the gap. I am looking for someone that can help me in that area and improve the bot to leverage the data using some ML/AI. I can provide more info. Contact info should be available in the profile.

I'm building a sports analytics platform, where users can write code against a hosted sports database, add commentary, and publish to build a sports data science portfolio. All published articles include the code, and any reader can fork someone else's work to do their own work building off others. If anyone wants to learn sports analytics, I'm looking for beta users. (Also open to adding non-sports datasets if someo…

I'm very interested. jamnvr at gmail

I am a former principal software engineer at a MAMAA company turned independent educational researcher. My primary interest is in deliberate practice and how to use spaced repetition (i.e., Anki) to develop expertise. I have three primary areas that I am working on and would love to find serious collaborators: 1) I am building high-quality content for math, English language arts, chess, etc. (see [0] for a good expla…

Hello! Would like to reach out but don't know Microsoft products well enough to guess what their fiery email domain is. Do you mean outlook?

I currently work for a startup program in Washington state and it's my third program. One of the biggest challenges we have (that I am sure is not unique to our program) is that we have a large community of mentors as well as founders and when we want to connect our mentors and founders together it takes a manual email introduction. I've also put together an Airtable where founders can connect with our mentors, but again it's a manual email for them to set up a time to meet.

I'd like to build something where mentors can list their profile as well as their skills. Founders could then sort those mentors by skills, book time (perhaps connected to the mentor's calendly), and connect via a conference call with something like Twilio.

I know something like this exists today, but it's a platform for a very specific community and cannot be white labeled or partitioned for another specific community.

Thoughts?

Ad-hoc data formats like JSON and XML are too insecure for the modern world, so I'm developing a new format to remedy this [1]. It's a twin format, one binary and one text, so that you can input / edit the data in text, and then it passes from machine to machine in binary only (or convert back to text if a human needs to inspect it). The binary format is designed for simplicity and speed, and the text format is desig…

EDN has some really good ideas in it. Here's the main spec: https://github.com/edn-format/edn

For a schema, I'd start with what CUE has done. The idea of types that constrain down as a lattice + a separate default path really resonates with me. https://cuelang.org/

Does it support IDL and zero-copy access? That's a must for safe and fast parsing and general ease of use.
