I built a real dark mode. your cursor is now a flashlight, cz why not?
wait what 😭 my silly little side project got featured by @SarvamAI 🙏
thieves started targeting empty houses in my hometown, so I built a device called fake family 🚨
it’s a tiny ai home security device that fakes my family’s presence in the house to scare away thieves
it generates indian husband wife fighting sound, plays tv, turns off turns on lights, cooking sound, chai making sound etc as per real schedule.
it runs on a @Raspberry_Pi, uses @SarvamAI to generate indian household drama with realistic voice.
my neighbour literally called my dad asking he heard some fighting. is everything ok. lmao.
fake family might actually work 😭

i kept wasting my weekends doing nothing so i built a button that kidnaps me. whenever im bored, i press it and it books an uber to a random interesting place in my city🚘
it has a physical digital push button connected to my raspi, and some python script.
ive pressed it 11 times so far and never had a bad trip. ok bye, going to a 110-year-old wrestling pit in shivajinagar, blr. i don't know what to expect but i'm excited

i'm sorry but at one point i genuinely considered building a device that alerts me whenever it spots a "thar" nearby 😭
I bought a car this year.
my life has been quite fun since then.
I made so many awesome memories.
they’re worth more to me than any profits I’d get from investments.
I can always make more money but I’ll never be 23 again with such a fun car 😂

✨launching "blinkipedia" - its wikipedia but the article changes every time you blink 😭
had this stupid idea in the shower. i blink way too many times every day and nothing happens. complete waste of eyelids :( so, i built this.
- wink left eye to go back to the prev article
- space bar works if your eyes get tired
camera stays local. ok, don't trust me - source code is open source, 1 html file
a completely unnecessary use of computer vision 👍

indian news sounds like it was written by uncles, for other uncles, so i built myself a gen z newspaper🗞️🚨
it explains what happened in full genz style, uses internet humour, and verified sources.
idk why one of the youngest countries in the world still makes news for people 45+?????
issue #001👇#

FINALLY built the bike corner I dreamed about as a kid 🏍️😭
i wish i could bring little me here for five minutes and watch his face :)
it's 2026, why are we still asking 1980s interfaces to keep up with todays intelligence ??????
naah
while everyone else is making ai fit the interface, we've been questioning the interface itself.
and building what comes next.
meet @AinaInterface🤙

it took me 9 YEARS to beat thousands of years of casteism 💍
I got tired of sitting in useless corporate meetings at work, so I built a button to generate fake excuses to leave 🚨
when I can’t sit through it anymore, I press the button. it looks at what’s going on and gives me a believable fake excuse
used it 3 times last week, still employed 👍🏻

- automation person (if you've built a bot to avoid doing something manually, perfecttt, you qualify)
copywriter -

the last 24 hours have been absolutely INSANE 🤯
internet went wild over my dumb little fun side-project, blew up to whooping 10M+
- woke up to interview invites from international media
- ended up in 6 national newspapers
- got featured and reshared by some HUGE accounts
- people in tech twitter i've genuinely looked up to saw it, liked it, and reshared
- a bunch of high-signal folks hit follow
- picked up by big digital pages & insta accounts
- and hundreds of dms from people saying it nudged them to go build their own random fun thing 🫶
so if you're sitting on some random idea - build it. ship it before you talk yourself out of it.
you really don't know who's watching or where it goes.

i hooked my whoop to my work calendar to find which coworker gives me the most stress 🚨
thanks to fable, I reverse engineered whoop to pull per minute heart rate. nd matched spikes with cal events and attendees
I now have a leaderboard and I think about it daily.
few info masked for obvious reasons ;)
