I’m a Software Engineer with ~1 year of experience. In college I had internships at Google and a startup. Since Jan 2025, I’ve done freelance work, including frontend work for a YC-backed startup. I’m interested in systems programming, full-stack, and AI engineering.

I was part of my university’s JV programming team, where we won the ICPC Southeast Regionals Division 2 contest. My codeforces peak rating is 1506 (Specialist).

Recently I've been working on my own OS, where I just added a keyboard driver and makeshift kernel-land shell that can generate a maze and solve it (demo: https://medbar.dev), a discord bot that answers questions about a github repo using RAG, a discord clone to learn system design, a community driven site that vibe codes itself, and I'm currently planning a binarysearch.com clone since the original site went down, which let you compete solving leetcode-style problems against friends.

very surprised this project is still releasing problems weekly - I remember this being up when I was in high school. maybe I'll pick it up again since I only did the first ~30 or so back then.


Not only are they still releasing problems weekly, they have a long backlog of problems waiting for release. I submitted a problem back in April 2024, and it didn't get published until October 2025 (problem 963). There's an excellent core development team that works with problem-submitters to get problems tuned up for Project Euler.

very surprised I haven't seen this done before - cool idea!


Probably because security nightmare


many mobile carriers allow sending texts via email (for example: 3048675309@vtext.com with a verizon number), which might be worth looking into should you want to avoid twilio completely.


Sadly, it seems this option is fading away, at least in the US.

I did this with my carrier in my country and a couple of years ago it stopped working.

I had a filter in Gmail that forwarded some emails and a cron script that checked the value from a river gauge and sent a text.
