Got fired? Ready to start a startup/new project?

We operate as a non-profit cooperative. The site itself is free software, written in Haskell (yesod) and we've also tried to stick with FLO tooling whenever possible, although we made an exception for hosting our source code, which is at https://gitlab.com/snowdrift/snowdrift

Of course, as a free software project, we suffer from the same funding issues we're trying to solve. The project is currently a 100% volunteer effort, and we're making slow (but nonzero!) progress towards our initial launch, when we start hosting our first outside projects.

One of our biggest bottlenecks right now is developer bandwidth. We have a handful of updated designs that address UX issues with the live site, and need to get them implemented -- if you know css, haskell, or both, we'd appreciate help!

I'm heading to bed now but will check in with this thread in the morning; you can also reach out on our discourse forum (<https://community.snowdrift.coop>), irc/matrix (#snowdrift on freenode; #snowdrift:matrix.org), or gitlab.

I'm also working on Crisp https://github.com/huumn/crisp which is a cryptocurrency written is Lisp. It's currently a toy meant for exploring, but what I want to do is have the transaction language be designed around spawning subchains. A blockchain for creating blockchains.

For Choremate, I definitely need help around marketing and UX flow. For Crisp, it'd be nice to just have someone to talk about it with, find other maintainers, etc.

Legit helps you find, curate and share your favorite food/restaurant recommendations with friends using your mobile food photos.

Have a map of all the ramen your friends have tried and vouch for (pinned with photos, ratings and captions) when you visit Tokyo.

See all the restaurants your friends' have tried nearby, wherever you are, with a feed of all your friends' food photos, sortable by distance with a tap.

Imagine having a map of all the restaurants Anthony Bourdain has tried around the world.

We believe that when it comes to looking for good food, Friend-sourcing > Crowd-sourcing, because your friends share a similar taste in food with you.

People are already taking too many photos of their food, but those photos usually just sit in your photo album doing nothing. We want you to harness the data (and meta-data) from your food photos, to journal and curate all your favorite culinary experiences, so that you can share them with the people you love.

I'm the IOS dev building this out with some non-technical friends. We are currently in private beta with friends and family. We are potentially looking for someone to help with the Android/Web version, ideally someone who wants to work with Flutter.

We will be launching through several Foodie Facebook groups soon and plan to eventually work with food/travel content producers. We think that foodies and food/travel content producers are currently underserved by Instagram and YouTube.

Please reach out if anyone is interested in downloading the beta app or learning more about Legit. We are super excited to build the new Twitch for Foodies.

Then while conducting interviews with what recruiters were calling senior engineers it became quite apparent that many people will still manually deploying code using a bunch of manual commands. Something packages are good for.

So I decided to start creating a way to make Linux packaging easier. I'm not sure if the idea has legs as people move more and more towards containers and serverless architecture but it's been refreshing to build something for myself.

Project: https://medium.com/endless-filament/make-your-filament-at-ho...

Hopefully, this will reduce the use of virgin plastic for creating art pieces in 3d printing community and you might be able to create beautiful and useful things out of waste plastic while cleaning plastic waste from the environment.

It's a profitable business.

I worked on this in my free time during quarantine.

I want to make the project more accessible so people around the world can develop local recycling unit. There is lots of work which needs to be done including making parts more standardized, demonstrating how parts fight together in a visual way and also have a microcontroller firmware to control diameter of filament.

I need help from someone who can write Arduino code, mostly includes reading diameter from a guage and then change the motor speed of puller roller so that it stretches the filament if filament diameter is more than target and slows down the stretch if filament diameter is less than the target diameter. This needs PID control.
