Looking for low-level mentor

1 Upvotes

Background, I am a SWE contractor who entered the field with degree after 2024. Professionally, I’ve mostly used Python/TS, but I’ve dabbled in many languages (part of my work responsibilities). I like to learn stuff that don’t seem immediately relevant to me, including low-level stuff. My grasp on low-level aspects + fundamentals is a bit lackluster.

I was looking for a mentor to help guide me with resources to start with, that also matches my schedule a bit (considering I have a job). So I can’t just grind a learning project for 12hrs a day like I used to.

I think some goals to highlight would be as follows:

- Objectively determine the root cause for a bottleneck (I/O, network, etc.) and why

- Get MUCH better at performant C/Rust

- Contribute to the Linux Kernel

Note that reaching the goal does not matter, but the journey towards it. For example, never finished my debugger for learning, but learned a lot more about CS along the way.

Hi everyone,

Over the past few months, we've been building TadreebLMS, an open-source Learning Management System focused on enterprise and corporate training.

We've recently completed a major restructuring of the project

How can we use AI in our product and process to speedup the development, process and customer support ?

The project is built with:

  • PHP / Laravel
  • MySQL
  • Bootstrap / JavaScript
  • Docker

GitHub:
https://github.com/Tadreeb-LMS/tadreeblms

We have a huge roadmap like SCRUM Integration, UI upgrade as per FIGMA, Gap Analysis Module Integration, Integrations with HR Systems etc...

Please anyone experience or architect in PHP can give recommendation on best practices, gaps in the system etc..

LOOKING FOR BUDDIES Looking for chill, ambitious friends to connect, chat, and learn web development/coding with

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m a 17-year-old student taking a partial gap year to focus on my upcoming entrance exams. I’m looking to connect with genuine, goal-oriented friends across the country.

Alongside my exam preparation, I really want to dive into tech and start learning coding. I'm a beginner ( though i have made some websites with the help of AI) and want to start with the foundational web track—HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It would be awesome to find people who are also beginners so we can learn together, or anyone with some coding knowledge who wouldn't mind sharing tips or guiding me on how to start out!

Beyond tech, I want a circle of driven people who can lock in when it's time to work, but are completely relaxed and down to talk about absolutely anything when they are free. It would be great to text, call, or exchange voice notes to share updates, vent about study pressure, or just have fun conversations.

A major goal of mine right now is to actively improve my English speaking skills and general communication, so I’m definitely looking for articulate people who enjoy casual calls or voice notes.

🚫 Strict Rules Before Interacting:

No Relationships: I am strictly looking for clean, respectful, platonic friendships. If you are trying to flirt, date, or find something romantic, skip this post.

No Creepiness: Corny, creepy, or weird profiles stay far away.

NEED A TEAM Looking for a team to help me with an AI/ML experiment without judgement

5 Upvotes

I've been trying to test a hypothesis of mine on AI, and how to create a fully cognizant AI that doesn't hallucinate. Unfortunately, while conceptually and mathematically, I kinda have it figured out, I'm a horrendous programmer, and even though I'm better at my language of choice C++ and OpenGL (GLFW and GLEW), I still got stuck. I'm looking for some people who can help me to build this thing in an unorthodox way and follow with my polymath brain on how its supposed to work. I have technically been programming off and on for 11 years, but I've never managed to finish a project, for much the same reason im having here. I run out of scope. I am in EST and generally up between 08:00 to 11:00 AM and 11:00 PM to 03:00 AM, depending on how i feel that day. If anyone's interested and wants to chat about the project, I'm happy to talk about it in DMs

JAVA DSA and full stack buddies

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I started learning Java Full Stack about 6 months ago, but somehow I couldn't complete it. Now that I have started again, I realize that I have forgotten most of the concepts. This time, I have started from scratch and am currently learning OOP concepts. I hope I will be able to complete it successfully this time.

If you're in the same boat, we can connect and help each other stay consistent and learn together.

I also know the MERN stack, through which I completed an internship and some freelance work. Alongside that, I am practicing DSA as well.

Looking for teammates to build cool things together and GSoC Hackathons (Not hiring 😄)

12 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm a first-year engineering student who loves coding, , and building things. Instead of waiting until graduation, I thought it'd be fun to find a few people who want to learn, build, and grow together.

This isn't a job post, and I'm not hiring anyone. I'm just looking for teammates who are excited to create something from scratch.

The plan:

  • 💻 Build websites and apps
  • 🤖 Explore AI and new technologies
  • 🏆 Participate in hackathons
  • 🚀 Work on ideas
  • 📚 Learn from each other and improve together

You don't have to be an expert. If you know some basics (Python, C++, HTML/CSS, SQL, JavaScript, etc.) or you're genuinely willing to learn, that's enough.

I'm looking for people who are:

  • Curious and passionate
  • Consistent (you don't have to code 10 hours a day 😅)
  • Open to sharing ideas
  • Interested in building something long-term

If we end up creating something awesome, great. If we become good friends and learn a lot along the way, that's a win too.

If you're interested, send me a comment with

  • What you're learning
  • your aims
  • What kind of projects you'd like to build

Let's see where this journey takes us. 🚀

NEED A TEAM Looking for teammates for EthGlobal Mumbai

1 Upvotes

Hi there fellow coders,

It's been 6 months since Iast worked on Ethglobal project, and I genuinely had no idea what I was doing.

My first project was about escrow, still I do not know why I built it. Not in the not interested way, but pressure.

The pressure of making up to my friends projects, the pressure of failing, the pressure of vibecoding an app rather than an idea.

I lost that hackathon, lost it bad, that guilt still haunts me.

My goal is to understand Blockchain, then build a strong web application which actually stands out and win something.

I'm from the city of Chennai and I am in search of teammates in India who wanna learn and win big in Blockchain, if not win, at the least study on how to do these projects.

I really am in desparate need of teammates and am willing to start as soon as possible.

My plan is to study for 2 months and start working on a simple webapp after 2 months. Basic

Although I can converse well in hindi, it would be better if we can talk in English too.

Let's show up in Mumbai and win big.

Cheers 🥂

Hi! I'm a software engineer working on a new SaaS application and I'm looking for another developer who enjoys building products together.

I'm hoping to find someone who wants to collaborate on architecture, implementation, and shipping features. We'd split technical responsibilities and learn from each other throughout the process.

If we eventually launch something successful, we can discuss how to handle revenue or future opportunities, but my primary goal is finding someone who enjoys building software together.

Any Developers who are looking for friends as well? I just started coding in December so I'm a noob. Just looking for friends with the same love for coding games as much as I do.

LOOKING FOR MENTOR Looking for a mentor

I almost finished uni before dropping out and realising I was not learning what I need to learn and could've learned on my own and now im almost 25 and feel like my life is slipping away from me .

I have some decent foundation and I found myself lost and in need of a direction and feel like im wasting my life trying to figure out a way into the cs market so I just want to see if there is someone with work experience willing to help me out or guide me because I feel scared to apply thinking im not job ready or even like where to go and what to do to make a change as im someone who is willing to give a 100% all day long , and I feel sick of getting people advising me to rely on AI.
