what Projects have you built with Raspberry pi

I’ve been tinkering around with rpi and aurdino since my college days and I still find combination of hardware + software more intriguing then just software development. some of the projects that I’ve built - Smart home IOT socket - Bluetooth controlled car - voice assistant - smart mirror I’m looking to build something more interesting these were the projects that I built using online articles now I want to build something completely new like a agri-robot/drone or a tele-caller voip server which lets me call any number via internet something hacky and interesting. looking for ideas here. what projects you’ve built?

Constructive feedback for Indian SDEs to go beyond average!

My last post (share.gvine.app/W6sQvon7d7H2qau89) saw a lot of opinions & criticism from many members in the community. For anyone who is offended by any of my comments, I truly apologize. Given the fact that some folks asked for constructive pointers, I decided to pen this down. These are just a set of points that I think would benefit some of you (not all!) in the long run: - Speak at conferences & meet-up — We have definitely seen a boom of them in India. A lot of folks continue to miss out on them for various reasons. If you are working on some exciting stuff, go ahead and submit a proposal for an upcoming meetup. Trust me, this is definitely something that you can use to actually build your personal brand. - Build some projects: Last month, I had to start taking interviews for the India team. I noticed the lack of projects, with many mentioning what they built during their college/interview assignments. Many complain that most of their work is proprietary, but it won't be bad to do a weekend hack around something they are passionate about. - Contribute to open-source: For some folks, this might sound almost cliche! Anyone who gets to contribute to any noticeable project today, will open a box of opportunities. I have known dozens of devs by now, who started contributing (out of passion?) and went ahead to work on impactful projects (while making good money!). - Seek interesting problems: A lot of devs I have interacted with have not sought companies, but problems! One of our competitors saw their investor join them as a part-time engineer (yes, he loves to code!). Builders always have this mindset to build — Luckily we have so many programs today that inculcate this. There are plenty of more ideas! The utmost emphasis for any SDE would be to become a Professional (with a capital P), become a craftsperson and take pride in your work! If you can't show anything substantial, your entire career building would be non-serious with sole purpose of money-making!
