Not sure if he had this turned off beforehand or if it's because it's on the front page of HN, but there's no slots available. Not that I was personally going to book one!

I'd love to do something like this though - I've always enjoyed teaching so maybe something where I offer free calls to help newer developers with their project for an hour? Interesting idea!

On the one hand, I like your idea and I would love to find someone who would help me improve at things like math, AI/ML, software dev, electronics, and 3D printing. On the other hand, I can't get my own students to sign up for my (virtual) office hours, despite offering them extra credit.
Could a skill swap work? Like, a website that says something like "I can teach you about linear algebra if you can teach me about CAD software" -- or would the marketplace be too sparse?
