Sixteen, class 11, Gurugram. I work on local LLMs, robot hardware, retrieval systems and the tooling in between. I would rather ship a working artifact than describe one, so most of what is below runs.
Ordered by how much of it I would defend. Live links where something is deployed; repo links where it is code only.
2026 · HTML · Node
A field guide to robotics hardware: 57 parts across seven subsystems with real specs, prices and the failure mode nobody documents, plus 18 platforms taken apart the same way and an eight-step build roadmap for getting started.
I kept re-deriving the same torque budgets and losing the same gotchas. Now it is written down.

Open, reproducible AI benchmarks run by the community rather than one lab. The point is that anyone can rerun the measurement and check the number.
Benchmark claims are unfalsifiable if nobody can reproduce them.
2026 · Python · FastAPI · MCP
An educational RAG product you can actually run: retrieval engine, a FastAPI interface, and an MCP server, built so the internals are visible instead of hidden behind a framework.
RAG is explained badly everywhere. Build one and the explanation is the code.
2026 · Python · BM25 · Rerank
A retrieval system over 122,000 chunks from 22 offensive-security sources, with hybrid BM25 plus dense retrieval and a reranker on top. Built to answer questions from primary material instead of blog spam.
The best security writing is buried in wikis nobody indexes properly.
2026 · TypeScript · MuJoCo-WASM · WebGL
A natural-language robot builder. Describe a robot, get a compiled RobotSpec out to URDF, ROS 2 or MJCF, then simulate it in the browser with real physics and client-side sensor rendering.
The gap between "I want a robot" and a simulatable model should be one sentence.
2026 · Python
Managing a fleet of ephemeral VMs for parallel work — provisioning, isolation, teardown — so long-running jobs stop queueing behind each other.
One machine is a serial bottleneck I got tired of.
2026 · Python
Recursive research tooling: build a question, expand it into sub-questions, retrieve per branch, and synthesise with citations that survive the expansion.
Attribution collapses when you summarise a summary.
2026 · HTML · Node
A hub of Indian personal-finance calculators generated from a single spec file — one build script, distinct formulas per tool, zero framework.
The ones that exist are either wrong or unusable on a phone.

A band website built end to end, from layout to content structure.
A friend needed one. Good exercise in shipping something someone else uses.
Not a wish list — these are the things I have shipped with and would pick again.
Most of what I write. ML, tooling, backends, anything that has to think.
When the loop has a deadline or the tensor has to leave the CPU.
Web apps, interfaces, and anything that has to run in a browser.
Firmware for motors, sensors and the real-time half of a robot.
Simulation and the robot software stack around it.
Bambu Lab A1. If a part does not exist, print it.
Where the hours are going this month.
Turning a personal reference into something other people can start from — an eight-step build roadmap, 57 catalogued parts, 18 platforms pulled apart. The hard part is not the specs, it is saying honestly where each one fails.
Training locomotion policies in MuJoCo and trying to transfer them to hardware built from cheap serial servos. The gap between a policy that walks in simulation and one that survives a real floor is turning out to be entirely mechanical.
I write and record about local models, Raspberry Pi, 3D printing and robot builds.
