I built a smart LED system that:
• Turns on when the environment is dark or partially lit.
• Turns off when the environment is bright or well-lit.
This system saves energy and ensures the LED is only on when it’s actually needed.

Got my hands dirty again, full details soon.

Advice from game theory:
Be around people who share your goals and ambitions. Shared interests create more efficient bonds than emotions. They outlast feelings every time. This moves you from zero-sum to non-zero-sum games. You won't need to waste time convincing anyone, and you will massively reduce the odds of betrayal.

Participated in my first ever hardware hackathon and tbh I walked in completely clueless.
I had never touched a breadboard before, never worked with an ESP32, and hadn’t even opened or downloaded Arduino IDE on my Mac. Hardware always felt like a completely different world that I never really explored.
But somehow, we ended up building a mini desk bot. Think Alexa, but with emotions and a display. It could respond, show expressions, and actually feel a bit alive in a strange way.
The process was literally chaos.
We spent hours just figuring out basic connections. Wires kept coming loose, code kept failing, components just wouldn’t respond. At multiple points, it genuinely felt like nothing was going to work. We kept debugging, retrying, breaking things, fixing them, and repeating the cycle.
And just when things finally started coming together, our ESP32 literally died a few hours before the final evaluation 💀
Thankfully, one of the teams helped us out with a spare ESP32, which honestly saved us.
Even with all that, this turned out to be one of the most valuable hackathons I’ve done so far. Out of the 15+ hackathons I’ve participated in over the last couple of months, this one pushed me the most out of my comfort zone.
For the first time, I worked with actual hardware instead of just code, used Arduino IDE and got a feel for embedded programming, handled real components instead of just watching tutorials, and even 3D printed something on my own.
We didn’t win, and yeah, that stings a bit. But winning was never really the reason I show up to hackathons.
I go to meet interesting people, to be around others who are building and experimenting, to learn by actually doing and failing, and just to yap confidently in front of judges lol
This one left me tired, slightly traumatized lol, but also way more confident to try things I’ve never done before.
And that feels like a win in itself.

There's no better time to pivot to hardware than now.

I am Tanzeel.
I failed NEET — not once, but twice. And honestly, those two years were the darkest phase of my life. Being a dropout, watching your batchmates move ahead, dealing with that constant weight of "what now" — it changes you.
But life doesn't stop, and neither could I. I joined DDU Gorakhpur University for my BSc — pas me tha, attendance ka koi issue nhi tha. Most people around me in college were caught up in politics, timepass, and the usual college drama. I kept a very small friend circle — and that was strictly reserved for bakchodi and mastikhori. The rest of my time? Pure grind. And it paid off.
I scored AIR 15 in IIT JAM, AIR 8 in GAT-B, AIR 156 in GATE Life Sciences, and cracked a few other national-level exams too. Got into IIT Bombay . After IIT Bombay, I cleared the TIFR PhD entrance and that's where I am now — pursuing my PhD at one of India's premier research institutes.
But here's the thing — I'm not stopping at just research. The world is moving towards tech at a speed that's impossible to ignore. AI, web development, building products — it's everywhere, and I've always been drawn to it. So now, alongside my PhD, I'm going all in on tech.
I'm taking @kirat_tw cohort to build a strong foundation in web development and beyond. No matter what field you're in, having tech skills is no longer optional — it's survival.
Football is a major part of my life. I'm a tiki-taka purist at heart, and been actively playing and competing in local tournaments, college-level matches, and hostel competitions. It keeps me grounded, keeps me sane, and honestly, it's the one thing where my brain fully switches off from everything else.
Let's connect, and let's growww together 🚀
