DEV
I know enough to build useful things and I'm curious enough to keep learning. History taught me patience. Tech taught me speed. This site is the evidence file.
Scroll — it gets more fun
// Manifesto
I build things.I break things.I ask why.
I've never finished a project the way I planned it, and I've never not finished one. I keep picking problems slightly too big for me — a drone that flies without GPS, a language model running in a browser tab, a fake-news dataset that didn't exist — and somewhere in the middle the plan gets replaced by whatever actually works. Four years of that: more than fifteen projects, two hackathons won, one trip to Helsinki, Finland pending.
Patience
from old empires
Speed
from startups
Curiosity
chronic, untreated

usually none, works anyway

// Two hackathons, two winsCase files
№01 — Case file★ 1st Place — Gemma for Route Intelligence
The Kairos Engine
A Cognitive Autopilot for BVLOS Mountain Drone Delivery
Built for Build With Gemma: Margadarshan, winning first place (and $600) in the Gemma for Route Intelligence track. It gives a delivery drone something it has never had: judgment.
Prize won
$600
First place in the Gemma for Route Intelligence track came with a $600 cheque — the first time a side project paid for itself.

// Problem
Today's delivery drones fly like trains on a track — when wind or battery fails mid-flight, the only fallback is Return-to-Launch. In the Himalayas that move is often fatal, because home may sit behind a 4,000 m ridge the drone cannot clear. The Kairos Engine is not a flight controller; it is a decision-making brain that sits on top of one.

- 01Wonder
Look for the less obvious way in. The unusual route is usually the interesting one.
- 02Read
Papers, docs and other people's code, until the problem feels familiar.
- 03Build
Simple version first, then test and fix. The repetitive parts bore me. I do them anyway.
- 04Explain
If I can't explain it clearly, I don't understand it yet.

Dear future me,
Did we do it? A unicorn company, started here and built here in Nepal. If not yet, keep going.
