introducing droid arm v1
it's an affordable robotic arm for material transfer
- it can pick & place small objects
- it's built using servo motors & 3d printed parts
75 ppl have shared their emails for updates on my robotics projects over the last six weeks.

9. It is really easy to disdain the work you do. This is a slippery slope and leads to dissatisfaction. You can learn to like the work you do.
(Let me know if I have missed anything)

4. If you are exceptional in your field, then you can go to work on extremely niche stuff (eg: search) but if you're not going hard on skill, then working at a company that has good brand value is a good move.

2. Working at a well-known company (having 'brand' value) is good leverage for future opportunities and opens doors for you. They also pay you better.

1. Typically, recruiters look at 3 things on your resume : your last company, the work you've done and your college (this gets less relevant as you progress in your career).

8. There are layers to your work and it is up to you to enrich it (eg : writing docs). Caring about your work attracts the right kind of people to you.

6. The way to evaluate a startup when deciding to work there is to look at metrics like growth, revenue and funding. If a startup is able to keep raising money, that is a good signal.

idk why but i thought *real* adults (read: adults with jobs and stuff) were angsty, serious beings with intricate life plans.
turns out, they are pretty chill, fun-loving folks who are making it up as they go.
now i’ve gotta outgrow my angsty teen self before i turn 20.

3. There is no clear demarcation between startups and big tech. Orgs and teams function differently.

i was having trouble configuring a lidar driver because of this directory marked with the right arrow.
turns out this is a git submodule. led to a nice learning tangent about git submodules and how to initialize them.
