Hello, I'm Snehal! 👋
Welcome to my corner of the internet
By day, I'm a software engineer who gets paid to write low level systems code that actually works (doesn't generate CVEs hopefully).
But by early mornings and late-nights, I'm simply a hobbyist trying to give my CPU and GPU cores a personality crisis with utterly meaningless projects. This is where I share those early morning and late-night experiments—the projects where I do everything and nothing at the same time.
