Aarya's Website
Hey! I'm Aarya (@gd3kr on the internet). I fell in love with computers
when I was 11. Ever since, I’ve spent a lot of time learning to talk to
them.
With practice, I've gotten pretty good at working with hardware, everything from simple line-following bots to super fast racing drones. In the last few years, however, I’ve
doubled down on software to solve problems that
matter to me, with code. I like to build things that create value, look
beautiful and are fundamentally fun to build and use.
Most recently, I graduated high school in May of 2022 and I've taken a year off before university to study the topics I love — Linear Algebra, Large Language Models, Computer Graphics and Aviation
Besides building things, I like to read, make music, create
art and vibe to Kanye (although I do not reciprocate his political
beliefs)
Some of my favourite projects
- Ada (November 2022): An intelligent chatbot that answers all of grandma's technology questions and also doubles as an enthusiastic conversation buddy!
- AutoRegex (June 2022) : Web app that uses Natural Language Processing to parse simple english into Regular Expressions and vice versa; also Scott Alexander, Gwern approved and certified twitter classic
- LunarPay (December 2021): LunarPay was a web app that allowed vendors to accept payments in crypto in a few clicks. Also won 2nd place at Polygon BUIDLIT
- Realsteer (July 2021): Little summer project that uses sensors on the iPhone to emulate a racing wheel
