I'm looking to support any climate-tech projects. I'm a mobile dev but can pick up any language / framework / tool. Particularly interested in ReFi and the intersection between web3 and climate.

You might want to check out https://climateaction.tech/ and join the Slack.

I would love to collaborate on stock trading algorithms. I love the inherent beauty in a well designed trading algorithm and the output is like generative art. I have excellent leetcode skills (have spent significant time grinding as a hobby) am a crack mathematician in addition. And I like making money of course.

I’m not quite working on stock trading algorithms, but rather designing a blockchain based game where the goal is to predict the state of the players of the game at the end of each round.

The twist is that users can provide any answer they chose, but honest/consistent answers will win more of the prize pool over time.

Would be happy to chat and see if there’s any overlap if this sounds interesting.

My email is blueberrychopsticks@pm.me

Here’s a write up on the game rules: https://enoemos.notion.site/Overview-of-Gameplay-ELI10-a9be0...

I'm working on Swymm.org, an interactive, crowdsourced timeline of all history. I would love to find a collaborator who sees the potential and can help out with software development. Check out the proof of concept at beta.swymm.org. If you're interested, please get in touch with me at t3db0t (that's a zero) [at] gmail!

I just released a barebones MVP yesterday for a sports betting site with a little twist: We give users a little bit of money each week to play with ($0.50 right now) and if they can run it up past a certain point we'll pay them out in cash. If they lose the money, we put another $0.50 in the next week. It's legal in the US since the users aren't allowed to deposit and mainly for entertainment purposes. The plan is to…

Reminiscent of the old Centsports?

I’m building a blockchain based game where the goal is to predict statistics about user provided information at the end of each round.

Should a play win a round, they’ll receive a small percentage of their overall prize, the remainder going into escrow.

That escrowed amount will be rewarded to them in the future if they continue to provide truthful/consistent answers to questions that are used as basis for building the “winning bingo card”

I'd love to work with people who want to create free educative games for kids, games fun enough to keep kids playing while developing their brains in positive ways. Most games I found are infested with ads (hence not free), sprinkled with lots of dark patters and the games are not good enough I'd even pay for them. Maybe there are some free gems out there already but are quite hard to find. My kid is 4yo and it has b…

I found you can get a lot of games that used to be good (e.g. Cut the Rope) in ad-free, IAP-free form by using Apple Arcade. Highly recommend for kids to give them a variety of great and challenging games without ads, and satisfy that constant desire for new stuff kids have.

I’m interested in collaborating with a small team of other software engineers on a project. I have 6 years of experience and currently fulfill a senior role at a startup. I know python, Go, node.js, vue, and I can handle most dev ops tasks.

I want to build something a small project app with like-minded people.

I have some ideas of my own, but if I am honest I think joining a small team and then picking the idea we pursue afterwards would net the best results.

Hit me up here and we can chat more.

Not super tech focused at the moment, but I'm trying to start a surf community in the bay area. Main reason is that sometimes it can be tough to find a ride share to the beach and also to share surf conditions at diff. places (cameras are pretty limited)

Although far away from the bay area (southeastern Europe), I had suffered many times from misleading forecast and lack of cameras around. If you consider expanding the idea more globally, I'd be happy to contribute.

I'm not super tech focused at the moment either, but work as a product manager / ba for the past 7 years and building a surf community sounds like fun.

I'm a front-end developer / artist / father. I'm trying to make a software application for families common in my situation. I have an 8 year old daughter who is very autistic and there is a huge lack in tools I feel that a family and kid can communicate with. To that end - I am trying to make a communication board tool. In my mind think of Trello board but there's not much in the way of words only symbols. Right now…

Also a father: 11 year old son who's very autistic. In process now of creating better visual tools / schedules to help him understand & have agency in his day.

Have thought a lot about this space, too, and identified similar needs. Please connect via email in profile.
