We moved to offline classes and built a new website. It didn't work out either.

My LinkedIn gets banned
About a year after I joined TermiX. I'd built a library that automated my job search and applied to many jobs for me, and LinkedIn flagged it. Then the account was hacked, and after that it was banned for good. So I stopped using LinkedIn: my proof lives here and on GitHub.
Jun–Sep 2024, a step
TermiX's first AI agents
A chat layer that turns plain requests into actions for 11 crypto agents, from swaps to buying memecoins on Solana. Much of the year also went into Diviner: paste a Solana memecoin's address and get its reading.

I wanted to be found on Google
If someone searched my name, I wanted them to find me, and I wanted to share things with a link. Trying to understand how that works is where everything started.
Around 2016, a step
iThink Technologies, with Jay
My first company, started with my friend Jay Prakash Pathak. The idea was an app that writes blogs on any topic by itself, years before AI made that easy.
Class 7Failure I'm proud of
First business: school models
Planned to build small science models and sell them to schools. Built one. It didn't look good enough, and it never sold.
Where I am now
Still building. Still teaching.
I co-run AstraTech AI in Jamshedpur, where students learn by building real things. I lead the AI side of Scholiphi, a school operating system. And at night I still build experiments. Some of them will end up on this page as failures, and that's fine.
सर्व हिताय, सर्व सुखाय
For the good of all, for the happiness of all.
Why there's no LinkedIn
My LinkedIn was banned, for two reasons. First, I built a library that automated my job search: it found openings and applied to many of them for me, and LinkedIn flagged it. Then my account was hacked, and after that it was banned for good. I still can't log in.
So I've stopped using LinkedIn. Everything is here and on my GitHub instead: the real code, the commits, and honest notes on what I did and didn't build.
