Still alive...
Welcome back!
One of my wins this week was having one of my posts featured in the Top 7 😀
Another win was finally publishing an article I'd been holding back for a while. It was a much more personal piece than what I usually write, and I wasn't sure how people would respond to it. In the end, I'm glad I shared it because it led to some thoughtful conversations and perspectives that I'll remember.
If anyone would like to read it, I'd love to hear your thoughts: Your Career Matters. So Does the Person Building It.
I feel like conversations around taking care of ourselves while building our careers don't happen often enough, at least from what I've observed, though I could be wrong. I'd love to hear your perspective if you decide to give it a read.
Happy Friday, everyone 🎉

Deploying a real-time multiplayer game on Railway
I also added bunch of bigger and smaller things to my space game and reached a peak of 40 active players in 24 hours!
u a time traveler or something?
You caught me!
This week, I had family visit me in Canada. We spent most of the time camping and hiking in nature. Felt great to unplug for a little while.
Otherwise I am currently interviewing with companies for a SWE role in Toronto. Passed my last interview last Friday, on to the next round!
My win this week is that I've managed to keep posting almost every day — and the engagement has been solid. Thanks to DEV for the platform, and thanks to everyone who read, liked, and commented. Really appreciate it.
Continue learning how heap memory managers work and how Linux manages the heap memory.
Learning low-level stuff for me is very complicated; pointers in C are like a nightmare. I had a bug in my C code writing my memory allocator that was driving me crazy.
Hello.
I’m a Python Full-Stack Engineer with over 10 years of experience designing and building scalable software solutions for clients across a variety of industries. Along the way, I’ve learned that successful projects depend not only on strong technical execution but also on creating real business value.
With my recent contract completed, I’m exploring new opportunities to collaborate with professionals who value innovation, practical problem-solving, and long-term partnerships. I enjoy discussing ideas that combine technical excellence with sound business strategy, creating outcomes that benefit everyone involved.
I believe every connection has the potential to become something meaningful. If you're interested in exchanging ideas, exploring opportunities, or simply connecting with someone who enjoys building impactful technology, I'd be happy to hear from you.
Wishing you success in your future endeavors, and I look forward to connecting.
Hi. I believe that once an idea that others haven't thought of takes root, it is bound to lead to success. I would like to discuss in detail cooperation to generate more revenue in the future.
Please reply if you are interested.
Today, July 15, 2026, I submitted my final year project report and completed the presentation. It went really well
That is the project thesis book.
The experience I had building the AI-powered smart resume analyzer over the last two to three months was just amazing. It has a lot of great features: users can submit their resume along with a job description, and the tool generates convincing feedback highlighting which keywords are missing and what they need to focus on.
We did a comprehensive project report and also created the thesis and the summary of the report.
There is one main approach that has old features: input layer, the layer and persistent layer, and the AI model. We use PostgreSQL to store all our resumes and all the histories so the user can track them at any time.

For authentication, we used Google, LinkedIn, and GitHub to provide flexibility. Users can log in with their email ID and phone number, which is great, and they can also enable two-factor authentication. We explored that as well.
We used Next.js 16 (the latest version) for the frontend, React Native for mobile, and Tailwind CSS for styling.
For the AI model, we used Gemini 3.5 Flash so that it can run very smoothly. For parsing, we used Mammoth and PDF2json libraries. After that, we used the Daily.co API for the interview coach so that you can talk to it like a real interviewer. It asks questions, and we can answer in a limited time (like 30 seconds), and then it will review your response and give you feedback on what to improve.
There are a lot of things included in the project, so it's a little bit of a learning curve, but it takes around two weeks, which is enough to cover all the aspects. We wrapped around a lot of things so that we have everything ready.
At the time, that was such an amazing experience.
