Ask HN: Who needs help with side projects?

#1
In the spirit of other Ask HN : Hiring and who wants to be hired, I thought I would help people with their side projects. For free or otherwise.

Please post what your side project does and whether you need help with technology(frontend, backend, databases) or with marketing/growth hacking/sales etc.

Personally, I can help with Python, Java and other backend technologies.

I am working on a baby book called Computer Engineering for Babies (https://computerengineeringforbabies.com). The biggest question I have is an SEO/branding one. I have about 3 brand names, and I don't know how to structure them or which ones to get rid of, and how to have a cohesive brand. Anyway, I'm looking for someone that can coach me on some SEO/branding stuff..

Interests: Web3, OpenCV, NLP, using AI libraries and Apis, semantic search. Languages: C#, Asp.net, Databases, some python, Played around with Django, I was working on a way to scrape problems out of social media. Also an AI idea generator.

I was working on a NLP(ish) idea for a while and got a descent prototype put together, but haven't had time to take the project past that. The idea was to train a model to classify tone of voice (a kind voice, angry voice, whiny voice, etc). Writing this out again now. I wonder if we could train a model to predict whether a statement is sarcastic or not..

I am working on weekends occassionally on a side project of mine, a real-time version of board game Baghchal (http://baghchal.net). The stack is Node.js/MongoDB.

I have identified couple issues that I'd love to work on at https://github.com/bhu1st/baghchal.net/issues but I lack time/resources.

Many thanks in advance for any technical help/support/collaboration. Please DM me.

that doesn't sound like it's within the scope of OP's request, but best of luck!

My project is a new way to browse the web, spatially. Built in unity/c#. Mostly done but there's always more to do so open to help with hte dev, Would also be great to work with a Ruby on Rails dev on building out the platform side.

would also love help building up traction/excitement with users/potential customers.

email is violentpurr at gmail if you're interested. I'm based on the east coast.

they don't have much to see, so hard to say what their implementation is; i think same problem space for sure.
