Tiny detail: that "something" has to be out of the house and in a populated area.

And popular with women too. You’re not going to meet many women if you’re racing motorcycles.

Yep. How amazing is it that women as well as men shop at Trader Joe's and get their cars washed at Ducky's!

Almost said nonstarter for us, people dead set on programming, but then remembered there are still co-working meetups.

Wait what lol

If you’re dead set on spending your discretionary time working and coding then dating will be impossible. I don’t think the opportunity to co-work together with others is the solution but I’m willing to be proven wrong. If this sounded snarky I don’t mean it to be, the programmer hobbyist is becoming rarer and rarer these days. Cheers

I don't know about co-working specifically, but meetups for startup founders, educational meetups for software engineering, and hackathons attract plenty of people of both genders.
