Ask HN: Pair Programming Discovery Services?

Hey folks,

Something I've wished for more and more as I work on solo projects and learning new technologies is a pairing partner.

I've found that when pairing at $dayjob, I'm able to more quickly and efficiently break down tasks and accomplish a lot.

That got me thinking: what if I had a pair outside of work to work with on learning new stuff? I did a little searching with little luck. Is there any such service I'm not aware of? Say I want to hack on X in Go or maybe an ecto adapter for Oracle or something...where can I find folks up for it?

Any pointers? Thanks!
