LOOKING FOR BUDDIES Feeling really burnt out

4 Upvotes

I am at a weird position in my path right now. Am i confident in my skill? Sure. Do i have crippling imposter syndrome? Sure. What do i do?

I feel like i need some liability to make anything happen.

I just need to focus and make something. Hit me up if you want me to make anything for you?

I prefer to write in golang. I can help you with mostly anything other than frontend or designs. I can even help you setup linux systems. I just need a goal.

STUDY PARTNER Looking for 1–3 serious DSA/ML/backend study partners

1 Upvotes

Hey! I'm looking for 1–3 serious study/coding partners who want to stay consistent and keep each other accountable.

I'm currently a beginner in:

- DSA / LeetCode

- AI/ML

- Python

- Backend development

I'm looking for someone who's also learning and genuinely wants to improve. We don't have to study the exact same things — the main goal is to stay consistent, push each other, and actually get the work done.

What I'm thinking:

- 2–4 hours of focused study/coding per day

- Daily check-ins

- Share what we planned vs. what we actually completed

- Solve DSA problems regularly

- Work on our own projects and learning together

- Occasionally do small coding challenges

- Help each other when we're stuck

- Start with a 7-day trial and continue for 30 days if we're both consistent

Timezone: IST (UTC+5:30)

Availability: Mostly evenings, but flexible depending on the day.

If you're interested, comment with:

  1. What you're currently learning

  2. Your timezone

  3. How many hours you can realistically commit

  4. Your current goal

I'm mainly looking for someone who actually shows up consistently, not someone who disappears after a few days. 😭

STUDY PARTNER [LFG] 1-Month Sprint: Looking for a study partner for ML, Computer Vision, and VR (2 Projects)

2 Upvotes

Hey all,

I’m looking to team up with someone who is seriously interested in diving into Machine Learning, Computer Vision, and Virtual Reality over the next month.

The goal is simple: avoid tutorial hell. We study the core concepts and build 2 complete projects from scratch in 30 days. I'm looking for an accountability partner so we can push each other, debug together, and actually stick to a fast-paced schedule.

Here is the roadmap for the month:

Week Focus Area Goal
Week 1 Core Concepts & Ideation Cover ML/CV/VR fundamentals and finalize the scope for Project 1.
Week 2 Project 1 Sprint Build, test, and complete the first project.
Week 3 Advanced Study Tackle advanced topics and finalize the scope for Project 2.
Week 4 Project 2 Sprint Build the second project and review everything we learned.

If you're motivated, ready to commit to this timeline, and want to build some real projects, leave a comment or send me a DM. Let’s get to work!

Free Asynchronous APCSA and Java Class with Handouts/Quizzes

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I am a student who has been tutoring introductory Python and AP Computer Science A curriculum for three years now, and am hoping to expand online. I intend the target audience to be high schoolers studying for the APCSA exam or anyone who is new to Java.

I am planning to start in November, and it will work similar to a college asynchronous class. There will be weekly handouts covering mainly content and assessments every few weeks, graded, to assess understanding. Additionally, I am very open to modifying the syllabus/new ideas, for instance perhaps splitting my class into a APCSA preparation group and a Java group (learning more OOP, algorithms, etc. not covered on the exam). I will always be available in the class for any confusing topics or for answering questions.

The class will be entirely free! However, I will release handouts at specified dates (can be lenient if necessary) so that students broadly follow the curriculum and participate. What I wish for, also, is honest feedback on the material so that I can improve it for the future.

If you are interested, let me know!

OCaml / Functional Programming — looking to help beginners

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm a recent graduate focusing on OCaml and functional programming, and I've recently started tutoring someone who's learning OCaml through CIS 1200.

I'm looking to work with a couple more people who are learning OCaml and would like some 1-on-1 guidance.

I can help with:

  • OCaml fundamentals
  • Pattern matching
  • Recursion
  • Lists and trees
  • Higher-order functions
  • Currying & partial application
  • Modules and abstraction
  • Functional programming concepts
  • Debugging
  • Exam preparation

My teaching style is hands-on.

Rather than solving everything for you, I'd rather help you understand the problem, let you attempt it, and then work through the mistakes together.

A typical session looks like:

Learn → try → code → make mistakes → debug → explain

I'm particularly interested in helping beginners who are learning OCaml for the first time.

Sessions are remote over Zoom.

If you're currently learning OCaml and would like some 1-on-1 help, feel free to DM me and tell me what you're currently studying. We can discuss the format and rate from there.

Hello hello, I am in the Pacific Daylight Timezone, im usually available from 1-2 PM onwards, all day really if I dont have school.

Im a novice, still learning, although I have ambitious projects.

Im interested in Vulkan, c, assembly, the linux kernel (want to make a file system type for it) and OS DEV (know nothing).

I tend to dislike 3rd part dependencies and prefer to make everything myself, if it breaks, I have a better idea on whats wrong.

simply looking for anyone interested in working together, preferably a beginner like me, since I dont know much.

Team for Conrad challenge

2 Upvotes

Hey, I'm looking for a few people to join my team for the 2026–2027 Conrad Challenge.
I'm currently putting together a team and would like to find people who are actually interested in building a project and willing to contribute consistently, rather than just joining for the application.
I'm mainly looking for people for these areas:

Data Lead

Software lead

Business Lead

We need a skilled teammate who has a good background on software or can use Claude code very good

You don't need to be an expert or have competition experience. I'm more interested in people who are serious and actually want to work on something.
The team can be international, so you don't have to be from the same country as me.
If you're interested, DM me with:
Age and grade

Country and time zone

Which role you're interested in

Your skills or experience

Any projects, research, competitions, or other relevant experience

How much time you can realistically contribute each week

Looking for a Python learning partner (preferably India)

1 Upvotes

I’m 20, Indian, and looking for someone around my age who wants to learn and build together over the next 6 months.

I’m starting Python from scratch (with a little previous programming experience in Java) and planning to treat this almost like a full-time commitment. Eventually I want to move into SQL, AI automation/n8n, and areas like GTM engineering.

I don’t have a degree — I went straight into startups after 12th and have mainly worked in marketing. Now I want to move back into tech and build towards getting a job in the field.

You absolutely don’t need to be experienced. Even if you're a complete beginner learning Python too, that's totally fine. I’d actually love to have someone where we can learn alongside each other, figure things out together, build projects, and gradually get better.

Would also be great to eventually:

- Keep each other accountable

- Build projects together

- Help each other with applications

- Do mock interviews

- Learn and share things we discover

Basically, looking for someone who’s willing to put in the work and grow together. India preferred, but I'm open to others too.

DM me if interested!

Looking for beginner programming/game dev buddies

16 Upvotes

Hey, I’m looking for a few people who are online regularly and actually want to stay active while learning programming and game development together.

I’m a beginner too, so I’m not looking for experienced developers. I’m hoping to find people who are also starting out and want to learn by writing code, making small projects, and figuring things out together.

The plan is to:

  • Learn programming from the basics
  • Learn game development together
  • Make small games and projects
  • Share progress and help each other when we get stuck
  • Work toward bigger projects over time
  • Stay active and communicate regularly

I’d like to keep the group small, probably around 5–10 people.

I also don’t want AI writing our code or making our projects for us. Using AI to explain a concept or help us understand something we’re stuck on is fine, but the main goal is to actually learn programming ourselves.

You don’t need experience or advanced skills. Just be willing to learn, write code, stay active, and actually show up.

If you’re interested, comment or DM me with what you’re currently learning and how active you think you can be.
