do any of you have tips on finding programmers to collaborate with on programming projects? feel like they should be everywhere but are surprisingly hard to find. maybe because I am looking to work in python?

my wife and i make decisions by mutual agreement because we're deciding things that actually matter and there's only 2 of us. as the size of the consensus group increases the probability of convergence declines. eventually you change to voting or nothing is ever decided. even with only 2 people decision by consensus is incredibly cumbersome unless the participants already agree on almost everything for any given software question there should be exactly one person with authority over the answer. on a healthy team there will be a lot of respectful discussion and decision-makers will welcome it, but ultimately someone has to make the decision & enforce it

Suspicious Dish posted:What interests you, syntaxrigger? Is there anything that seems cool or exciting that you would feel happy about working on full-time? I am interested in data science and the bitcoin protocol, not the currency. If I am honest I don't feel really know what is out there. APIs seem neat but that also seems like a trivial stupid thing to say. I feel excited working on projects with other people, like in a hack-a-thon type environment but when I work on projects solo I never get anything done which is frustrating. I am not far enough in my software career where I feel confident I can build something non-trivial solo. I feel like there is too much poo poo I don't know. My old boss knew of my interests and suggested I learn python while reading up on data science.

Sure, but at a broad scale, what interests you. You might not know, but start thinking about it! Want to get down-and-dirty with bare metal working on filesystems? Or have fun implementing all the latest PLangs with compiler / JIT / VM / GC internals? Or visualize the future of computing with realtime 3D graphics, sound, physics and VR systems? Or work on cool apps, maybe even graphics stuff like Photoshop / Illustrator? Any of that sound exciting and make you want to open your text editor and start coding? I can point you to plenty of open-source projects in any of these areas, and plenty more.

I have been in industry for about 3 years now and while i wouldn't consider myself an expert, i am certainly not a novice. I was just interested in any tips that people might have in meeting up with programmers to work on projects. Telling a programmer to check out github is like telling a journalist to check out a library. trap spung, serious posting, blah blah blah
