Ask HN: Who is Co-founding? (December 2013)
11 comments
I've built SpreadGit (www.spreadgit.com), a version control system for Excel that doesn't suck. started as a side project a couple of months ago which turned into my full time job.
I've cobbled SpreadGit together myself (mostly in Python) and it's live with a number of paying subscribers. Looking for a UI/UX/designer/JS guy to join the ship as a co-founder. am fully bootstrapped and want to ride this wave for as long as possible.
if you are interested, email me at [email protected]. thanks!

Designer-preneur here.
Made (app.groundbreakr.com) for Watsi over a weekend to demo the concept. It's not usable, but I'm open to completing it.
It uses a JSON feed from Watsi to display projects, but would need a deeper relationship with them for this model to actually work. Have a relationship for current project.
Have been running some experiments in the Quantified Self/social fitness space. Am looking to sync up with some founder ready devs.
Existing code/working app/traction, but we'll consider it a new project; I'd like to meet some really great Rails and frontend peeps to startup with. Open to joining an existing team as well.
I've got lots of excited friends who code Rails, but aren't the type of people I would create a company with. I'm all in.
If you're interested, let me know. would love to chat!

Just separated from a company over some employment contract issues. Taking it easy for the month and working on my own stuff, still I would be open with working on any cool idea's for equity or better money.
Quick background on me: prefer backend/data mongering ( high tides in my career was ~1-1.2 Billion pageviews/month and 300GB of data collected/day ) but I do have an understanding of CSS 2&3 ( done a few contracts for Conde Nast's clients ). Primary work in Python but worked professionally with Java, PHP, and Ruby ( no more Rails ).
Currently working on a CherryPy like overlay to twisted web ( similar object graph to endpoints but with all of Twisted's strengths & capabilities ) and a ZMQ mobile/web/desktop notification system ( QT4 & Sencha Touch 2 for other systems).

Looking to team up to build Internet of Things products. Open to new ideas as well.
I'm an electronics guy. I can build circuit boards and code webapp or device level.
I'd be interested to work with designers and coders, both for mechanical design and for the app / market page.

Alright, I guess I'll give it a go since there doesn't seem to be a lot of interest.
I'm looking for a Designer/UI/UX guy: - Must have a good sense of design - Must be able to mock up web pages & user interfaces - Must be able to do image editing - including stuff like logos, sketches, demo images
Bonus for HTML/CSS/JS/Bootstrap, but I can do that myself (I just lack design skills)
This is just for a side-project I'm working on (very niche SAAS analytics web app). Looking to launch an MVP sometime early next year (Jan-Feb). Time commitment shouldn't be anything significant, a few weekends/evenings over the next couple of months (varying depending on if you want to do front-end stuff or just design). Compensation is not-insignificant (I'm not greedy) percentage of whatever this thing makes (if anything). For more details, shoot me an e-mail (check profile)

Buttr is live with a handful of paying subscribers, buying a few thousand dollars a month in groceries. I hacked the product together myself using Zapier and open source ecommerce software. Previously, I served as the founder/CEO of a funded crowdsourcing company ($1.1M from Google & Mitch Kapor) that was acquired last year.
The ideal partner has co-founded a funded company before and witnessed first hand the bullshit and emotional craziness that comes with the territory, and despite everything, wants to do it again. My goal is to build a big, valuable company with a fanatical customer base. Raising money and impressing VCs is a means, not an ends. Hopefully you feel the same.
You should be extremely technical yet understand that technology is only a means to an end, a tool for man to judged only by how it helps men (and women) achieve. Though able to solve the hardest of problems, you should endeavor to architect solutions in a way that avoids or bypasses the most challenging problems altogether. Operating leverage--your ability to do so much with so little--not technical brawn, should be your claim to fame.
