Ask HN: Would you like some help with your OSS project?

5•seph-reed•9h ago
I'm retired and I would like to resume collaborating with smart people. Any project will do. Journey > destination. My best times programming had more to do with people than purpose.

If you've got a nice community brewing, or if you're just a solo dev who's friendly, please share.

I would love to help as well

I'll join your team if you find something. Would love to work as a group, rather than lone contributors.

Currently I'm looking into Deno and Ladybird. The latter has been nice enough, though the onboarding is little more than "compile yourself, then search for an issue."

Hey Seph (and anyone else who's interested) — I think we might align on the “journey > destination” part.

I’m at the founder stage of a project that’s not OSS yet, but the core idea is deeply human: I’m building a system that uses conversational AI to map how people think, not just what they say — and then connect people whose thought processes resonate (builders, creators, deep thinkers, even quiet geniuses who rarely get discovered).

Not a social network, not a dating app — more like a cognitive matching layer where the right minds can finally find each other to collaborate, co-found, create, or simply be understood — maybe for the first time in their lives.

I’m still assembling the founding team and looking for early technical collaborators who care about meaningful architecture, ethical design, and building with depth — not engagement hacking.

If any of that sounds interesting, I’d love to chat casually, see if there’s resonance, and share more details.

Let me know if you’re open to exploring it.

seph-reed•1h ago
Sure. I spent some time designing the architecture for a system like this last year, based largely on my experience dating a prolific social networker for many years.

Would love to chat about it. There's no PM, so you can find my email at https://sephreed.me by clicking "contact"
