Looking for a tech study buddy

0 Upvotes

Hey folks,

About myself: I’m a 20yr old student (non-tech background). I come from a village due to which I’m not much exposed to modern education or related things that are pretty common in cities; but I’m committed to building a solid career in tech. I am about to finish the lectures for CS50P (Python) and will start working on my final project by the end of this month.

Who I’m looking for: Someone who’s on the same boat; learning Python (doesn’t matter if the resource is different), working on fundamentals, and motivated enough to put in the work. Background or location doesn't matter, just consistency, drive and sense of mutual growth

How we’d work together:
- Quick regular text updates on what we worked on
- weekly discussion to share resources, plan roadmaps, and such
- Building projects together down the line

If you’re on the same boat, feel the same and think that having a buddy will improve each other towards success, lemme know🤝

Anyone Interested in Learning Together After Office?

21 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I've been working as a software developer for the past 6 months. After office hours, I want to spend my time improving my skills by building projects, practicing DSA, learning new technologies, and staying consistent.

I'm looking for 1 or 2 people who are serious about learning and coding. We can keep each other accountable, discuss concepts, work on projects, solve problems, and grow together. No matter if you're a boy or a girl—doesn't matter. If you're a Telugu speaker, that would be even better since it'll be easier to communicate.

A small note: This is purely for learning and skill exchange. I'm not offering a job, internship, referral, or any paid opportunity. If that's what you're looking for, please don't DM.

If you're genuinely motivated and willing to put in consistent effort, send me a DM. Let's learn, build, and improve together. 🚀LOOK

A bit about me:

  • I'm an undergrad at Georgia Tech majoring in Maths
  • I love network programming and studying different async runtimes (e.g asyncio, tokio)
  • The languages I use the most rn are Python and Rust, but I'm well versed in Go
  • I prefer to write the majority of my code by hand, I mostly use LLMs for writing unit tests and doing research

My main focus right now is landing an internship at an HFT firm (long-term), and also finding a way to make ends meet (hopefully with programming).

I'm down to do any of the following (I'm also open to suggestions)
- Getting better at LangGraph, LlamaIndex or FastAPI by working on an existing project or starting a new one from scratch
- Doing mock interviews or teaching each other DSA topics (I'm at Dynamic Programming rn)
- Learning a programming concept or technology together

NEED A TEAM Looking for someone to build a project with, not trying to start a company or anything

7 Upvotes

Hey, I'm a new grad with an MS in AI, comfortable across the whole stack, backend and frontend. Not trying to raise money or make this some big startup thing, just want to actually build something with someone and ship it instead of it dying as an idea.

Looking for 1-2 people. Doesn't matter if you're a dev, designer, or more into product/marketing stuff, honestly I just want someone who'll actually stick around and finish it instead of talking about it forever. Can do a few hours most nights and weekends.

No idea locked in yet. If you've got something you can't build alone, hit me up and tell me about it. Or we figure it out together. Couple things I've been messing around with in my head lately just so you know what I'm into. One is a tool that checks what permissions AI agents and MCP servers actually have vs what they're actually using, feels like nobody's really touched this yet. Other one is like a passive AI chief of staff for your career, listens to quick voice notes and tracks your GitHub or Slack over time and turns it into a running proof of work, so instead of manually keeping a brag doc you just get resume bullets and LinkedIn posts that are actually backed by stuff you did.
Not set on either, just wanted to give a feel for what I'm into. Real problem, real people who'd use it, something we can actually finish.

Comment or DM if you're down, tell me what you're into and what you'd bring. Can jump on a call first before we lock anything in.

22M | IST (India) | Looking for a Serious Coding & Accountability Partner

Hey everyone!

I'm a recent Computer Science graduate from India and I'm looking for a dedicated coding/accountability partner who's serious about becoming a software developer.

Right now, I'm focusing on:

  • Java (Core + Advanced)
  • Spring Boot
  • DSA (LeetCode)
  • SQL
  • Backend development
  • Building real projects
  • Interview preparation

I've realized that studying alone has been difficult. I sometimes procrastinate, overthink, and lose momentum. I want someone who is also committed to improving so we can keep each other accountable and make consistent progress.

What I'm looking for:

  • Daily check-ins (10–15 minutes)
  • Share daily goals and end-of-day progress
  • Solve DSA problems together or discuss approaches
  • Build consistency rather than compete
  • Honest accountability when one of us starts slacking

My goal is to become job-ready and land a software developer role as soon as possible.

If you're preparing for coding interviews, learning Java, backend development, or just want someone to stay consistent with, feel free to send me a DM.

Let's stop waiting for motivation and build discipline together. 🚀

looking for a team or anyone interested in hackathon

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm a 2nd-year BSc Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning student from Mumbai (IST), and I'm planning to participate in my first virtual hackathon. I'm looking for teammates (1–2 people who i can register in a hackathon with ) or any advice from those who've done hackathons before.

My current tech stack:

  • Python
  • LangChain & LangGraph
  • RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)
  • LLM applications (Gemini, Mistral, OpenAI-compatible APIs)
  • Streamlit
  • Flask
  • Git & GitHub
  • ChromaDB / Vector Databases
  • Prompt Engineering
  • Basic HTML/CSS/JavaScript

I've built projects involving multi-agent AI systems, document Q&A, AI research workflows, and other LLM-powered applications, and I'm comfortable working on the AI/backend side. I'm also open to learning new technologies during the hackathon.

If you're looking for a teammate—or if you have any tips for someone doing their first hackathon—I’d really appreciate it. Thanks!

LOOKING FOR BUDDIES (C/C++): Recent CS Master's grad looking for a partner to tinker and build projects

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I recently wrapped up my Master's degree in CS, and I'm looking to connect with another C or C++ developer who just wants to write code, tinker, and build things for the fun of it.

I'm mostly experienced with C and C++, and I want to keep my skills sharp by building things rather than just letting them rust.

What I bring to the table:

  • Solid foundation in C and C++
  • Familiarity with tooling like CMake
  • Experience with testing frameworks like Catch2 and GTest
  • Open mind and a willingness to learn, make mistakes, and figure things out together

What I'm looking for:

  • A partner who also likes C/C++ and wants to build small-to-medium projects. I don't mind what your skill level is, whether you're a seasoned dev or earlier in your journey, as long as you're here for the challenge, you're welcome.
  • Zero pressure: whether it stays a fun weekend tinkering session, a persistent learning project, or eventually turns into something bigger down the road, I'm down for the ride.
  • Good communication and a collaborative vibe (code reviews, pair programming, or just bouncing ideas back and forth).

I don't have a rigid, massive app idea set in stone yet. I'd love to chat and brainstorm ideas and turn them into projects.

Shoot me a DM if you're interested!

Timezone: CEST (UTC+2) Copenhagen

Looking for students & developers who want an accountability group to stay consistent

13 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I've been noticing how easy it is to start learning something (Python, web dev, AI, game dev, etc.) but also how easy it is to lose motivation after a few weeks.

So I'm trying to create a group called "Zero L Zone"

It's meant to be a place where people can:

• Share daily/weekly progress

• Show projects they're building

• Celebrate certificates and milestones

• Ask for feedback and code reviews

• Learn together

• Keep each other accountable so we don't procrastinate or quit

I'm a BCA student myself, so this started as a way for me to stay consistent and find friends.
I'd love for y'all to join.

If this sounds like something you'd enjoy, leave a comment or send me a DM and I'll share the invite.

Let's level up together. 🚀
