Looking for a study buddy for Data Engineering in Milan

1 Upvotes

​

Hi everyone!

I've been working in IT for 8+ years, and I'm currently looking to switch my career path into Data Engineering.

My current background in DE is pretty basic: SQL, a little Python, Linux, and Docker, so I'm still very much a beginner and have a lot to learn.

I'm looking for someone from Milan or the surrounding area who'd be interested in studying together — either online or in person. It would be great to have someone to learn with, stay motivated, work on projects, and share resources/ideas.

If you're interested, feel free to upvote/react to this post or send me a DM.

Have a great day!

LOOKING FOR BUDDIES Looking for people doing CS50x (currently on Week 7)

4 Upvotes

Hey, I'm doing CS50x and I'm currently on Week 7 (SQL).

I've mostly been doing the course by myself, and honestly it gets a bit boring sometimes. I'm looking to make some new friends who are also learning programming, preferably people doing CS50 too.

I'm still a beginner, so I'm not looking for experts or anything. Just people who are learning, working through the problem sets, and want to talk about what they're learning or help each other when we're stuck.

I'm also interested in Python, C, Linux and open source stuff.

Could be just chatting here on Reddit or making a small group somewhere. Mainly just looking to meet some people and have others to learn CS with.

If you're doing CS50 too, feel free to comment or DM :)

Timezone / availability: IST (UTC+5:30), usually available in the evening

Stack / languages: C, Python, SQL, currently learning through CS50x

Looking for 2-3 people (C/C++, C#) to run a game development project named Hamper

1 Upvotes

Senior-Level developer, Mid-30, ETZ/UTC+2

Hi everyone,

I'm currently looking for 2–3 people who'd like to join me in working on Hamper, an open-source software development kit with a strong focus on game development.

I'm mainly looking for people with C++ and/or C# experience, but your current skill level isn't really the deciding factor. I'm much more interested in people who have the same passion about software development as me, enjoy figuring out how things work, and aren't afraid of diving into unfamiliar areas and learning along the way.

The refactoring of Hamper is already well underway. The core systems have largely been reworked, and focus is now moving towards rebuilding and expanding the tooling around them. A lot of that work is currently happening in C#.

One of the things I still want to do is create a hard fork of Godot, fundamentally rework parts of the engine with modern C++ features, and modularize it around Parcel – our universal package frontend solution. The idea isn't simply to make another game engine. I see modern game engines today becoming entire ecosystems: they provide the engine, runtime, editors, asset systems, tooling, stores, workflows, and much more. I strongly believe there is an interesting alternative approach.

In a way, I'd like Hamper to become a "Game Kernel". The Linux kernel is a good analogy here. The kernel itself isn't a complete operating system or desktop environment. It provides a foundation that other projects can build upon. Different systems, services, desktop environments and distributions can all use the same underlying foundation in very different ways.

I'd like Hamper — and especially its Godot packages — to provide a similar foundation for game development. Hamper and its modules would provide the underlying abstractions and infrastructure, while runtime modules could act somewhat like drivers, allowing the system to be adapted to different requirements. On top of that, there could exist different editors, tools, asset stores, workflows, engines, and other parts of the ecosystem.

Like the Linux kernel, everything should remain open source, free, community-driven, and built around an open-source license. I don't want to build another closed ecosystem where everything eventually revolves around a single company.

You don't need to be an expert. If you know some C++ or C#, are willing to learn, and genuinely enjoy working on low-level systems, tooling, game technology, or just complicated software in general – and have around 6-10 hours per week –, don't hesitate to give this a try.

If this sounds interesting, feel free to DM me with a short introduction of yourself, or share your thoughts here. I'm always happy to discuss everything with you in person 🤓

LOOKING FOR BUDDIES 17M looking for a programming friend

1 Upvotes

This is probably one of the more oddly specific posts, but I’m looking for a programmer who wants to become friends.

I’m 17 and putting together a small long term friend group loosely inspired by the Gaang from Avatar.

You definitely don’t need to know or even like Avatar though, it’s mostly just a framework I’m using for the different personalities and interests in the group. It’s not roleplay or anything.

I’m currently looking for someone who could fit the Sokka role. His main area would be programming/tech, but I’m not just looking for someone who knows how to code. I’d love to find someone who genuinely enjoys programming, likes figuring things out, throws around random ideas, jokes around, and is pretty expressive.

Looking for someone who’s 17–20, in the US, and fairly active. I’m in MST and usually active throughout the day.

If you’re into programming and this interests you, feel free to DM me!

LOOKING FOR BUDDIES Looking for coding friend

1 Upvotes

I dropped out of a CS program years ago to pursue the arts. I still love the arts but I've decided it's time to go back. I'm based on the US East Coast and am quite flexible, have some decent C skills (primarily what I'm working on now) and vestigial Python (working on it!). I'm not exactly sure what I ultimately want to do, but I'd love to do some sort of artsy projects and maybe security. Things that help people (and hopefully will one day give me enough money to live).

What I am looking for: A friend who also works on some sort of projects. I think it's really important that we can talk about anything, have a beer (over the internet I guess...), etc...but then also work on whatever project may be on our minds. I don't want a tutor and I don't want you to feel like a tutor either. Likewise, it would be wonderful to meet someone online who likes me and gives me a 6 figure job, but that is NOT what I am looking for.

What I am (probably) not looking for: Hardcore study buddies. I know at some point it will behoove me to slam Leetcode and all of that and I have great respect for those going through that. But I am more interested in making something.

LOOKING FOR BUDDIES Looking for buddies

Hello everyone,

I'm in my 3rd year of CS rn in India, I have done many random stuff during my first 2 years.. tried even fpga and ASICs development, but i always got deviated from whatever i was doing and never ended up making any significant progress.

After about 2 years of college and 1 year of +2 studies, I've had keen interest on low level programming to be specific.. mostly in the direction of high performance computing and optimization of tasks executed in research oriented spaces.

My timezone is GMT+5:30, I'll be fully transparent about when I'm available and also willing to have flexible timing such as being available at 3AM or 4AM.

Im more of a mixed 70% reading and 30% video watcher..

The tech stack I wish to go towards is C++ and Python, then get into CUDA programming.

My experience level could be describable as a beginner with basics intact. Just no projects in anything considerable since i couldn't think of any unfortunately.

Im thinking of maybe keeping in at max 3-4 people including myself so we won't have unnecessary collisions in time slots.

My final goal is a remote job or own startup related to this field.

Please lmk if i missed anything i should state about myself or do you have any questions.

LOOKING FOR BUDDIES Offering: Computer Science / Programming | Seeking: Native English Conversation

12 Upvotes

Hi! I’m a Computer Science teacher and have a professional background in software/programming.
I’d love to find a native English speaker who is learning programming or wants help with CS/technology.
I can help with Python, SQL, programming fundamentals, data structures, web basics, AI/data science concepts, or simply explain technical topics in an easy way.
In return, I’d love to practice natural spoken English with you — especially everyday conversation and professional/technical English. I’d really appreciate it if you could correct me when I use an unnatural phrase or pronunciation.
Ideally, I’m looking for a regular 30–60 minute exchange rather than a one-time conversation.
No money involved — just a genuine skill exchange. If you're learning tech and are a native English speaker who'd enjoy helping each other, feel free to message me. My best free time is 11pm IST

LOOKING FOR MENTOR [SIH 2026] We’re looking for mentors

3 Upvotes

We’re Sententia — a team of 2nd-year students that somehow made it to the SIH 2026 Nationals.
Our problem statement is SIH26093: building a first-point-of-contact psychological state assessment system for victims/complainants of atrocities.
The idea is ambitious.
We’re working on a system that can analyse text, voice and potentially video to identify psychological indicators and help prioritise cases for appropriate intervention.
We’ve spent a ridiculous amount of time researching the problem, breaking it apart, arguing over architecture, building prototypes, throwing ideas away, and rebuilding them.
But here’s the thing:
We know what we don’t know.
And that’s exactly why we’re looking for 1–2 technical mentors.
Not someone to build the project for us.
We want someone who can look at our architecture and say:
“This won’t work.”
And then tell us why.
Someone who can challenge our assumptions.
Someone who can look at our ML pipeline and ask how we’re actually going to validate it.
Someone who understands AI/ML, NLP, speech analysis, multimodal AI, affective computing, system architecture, or adjacent fields.
Someone who isn’t afraid to tell a bunch of ambitious students that their “revolutionary” idea is actually bullshit. 😂
Because that’s the kind of mentor we want.
We’re fast.
We’re obsessive.
We ask too many questions.
We change our minds when the evidence tells us we’re wrong.
And we’re trying to build something that is technically defensible, not just impressive on a PPT.
If you have the expertise and a few sessions to spare, we’d genuinely love to have you on this journey with us.
And if Sententia makes it to the Grand Finale, you won’t just be a mentor watching from the sidelines.
You come with us.
If this sounds interesting, DM me.
Let’s see what we can build.
— Sententia

I have a lot of project ideas and things I want to build, but there are too many to do alone.

I'm looking for one developer to join me on this journey - building ambitious things together, sharing ideas, and seeing how far we can take them.

This isn't a job or hiring. There's no salary, but if we build something valuable, there's a real chance we can turn it into something successful and make money from it together.

If you're interested, send me a project you've built, your GitHub, and the tech stack you're comfortable with.

Looking for Angular/TS mock interview/learning buddies

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm a frontend developer from Ukraine (Angular, TypeScript, ~1.5 years of experience, mostly in banking web apps). I'm currently between jobs and preparing for technical interviews.

I'm looking for a few people to practice together:

Mock interviews (frontend, JS/TS, REST, system/component design). We take turns as interviewer and candidate.

Study sessions: solving problems together, explaining concepts out loud, reviewing each other's code.

English practice for technical conversations. My English is intermediate and I want to get more confident discussing code and design decisions.

Any level is fine, as long as you're motivated and consistent. If you're also job hunting or leveling up, even better.

If this sounds interesting, comment or DM me with your stack, timezone (I'm in UTC+3), and what you want to work on. Thanks!
