I'm trying to learn Avalonia/WPF to build UI and really having a hard time because most of the resources assume people have a WPF background. I'm looking for someone to trade mentoring, you help me learn that with screenshare and/or email or over slack or something, and I'd be happy to mentor you in what I know, which is Unity, C++, gamedev, and graphics (film vfx and realtime) stuff. I also did a lot of iOS app development but I'm a few years behind the times on that. Email joeld42@gmail.com if you'd be interested.

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://openaircol…

I opened this thread to see if anyone was working on carbon capture solutions. I've been reading a lot about it in my free-time and definitely something I'm curious to explore.

I'll hit you up at the discord you linked.

I'm looking for some help improving the CSS for https://ramdass-search.net/ First and foremost it should be mobile-friendly, and I'm not skilled enough in CSS to make it happen in a short amount of time. The site should remain JS-free, so I don't want to use bootstrap or some other off-the-shelf framework. No compensation, I'm providing the site free of charge, your contribution should be considered a donation to the…

I can help with that.

Cool, thanks! If you share your github username, I will add you as a collaborator. You can mail it to me at flo at t21n dot net, if you don't want to post it here.

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…

Do you know about 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-blu...

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 :)

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.

This is an interesting idea. I can imagine textbooks on this platform but we a collaboratively constructed knowledge graph. I'd love to jump on a call and chat.

Happy to chat! Send me a message on Twitter or via email (email now in bio) and we'll set something up.

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 p…

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

I'm a startup CTO, but I've gone deep down the rabbit hole of growth hacking lately. I'm interested in applying some methods I've learned to a new idea.
