Today, our 7th semester results were declared 👩‍🎓, and I spent solid 2 hours debugging 🙇 my scraper that pulls everyone's results. Despite checking everything thoroughly, I kept getting null responses. It was driving me crazy! 🌈 I read whole website's source code and even the JS 😓

I was testing only for the first roll number to make things easier to track in the console 🤷‍♀️, but then it hit me — the enrollment numbers start at ...001, not ...000. 🤦‍♀️ I completely missed that. It’s funny how sometimes the simplest things can trip you up!

Now that I have all the data, I'm planning to launch a website to give everyone a recap of their entire 4 years of college! 😂

Got an awesome surprise! 🎁

My client from the US 🇺🇸 sent me a Flipper Zero (iykyk 😈), something that’s super pricey here in India 🇮🇳 and that too for absolutely free! I’m truly grateful for this generous gesture. 🙂

Can’t wait to dive into all the things this device can do and explore more about the wonderful tech! 👨‍💻

Big thanks to him for this amazing gift! 🙌

Got 8th sem results declared.

Need to run that scrapper script again. 🏃‍♂️

I bought a very old MacBook Pro (2011) in almost-dead condition. 🛍 I opened it up and saw that the original hard disk was fried. I bought a new hard disk (yes, I’m broke for SSD 😭), and then found out the data cable was also dead that’s why the new hard disk wasn’t getting detected. I ordered a new SATA 2 cable from mungu.in (huge thanks to them, they delivered it to my house within 18 hours from Delhi to my city). 🗳

So after all that fixing, I booted into Linux Mint and surprisingly it runs very smoothly now. The laptop’s condition is actually good even though it’s a 15-year-old machine. 👴

So guys now that I have this old thing (everything cost me around ~$30), suggest how I should use it:

- superheavy paperweight 🪨
- home server 🖥
- use it as an expensive (is it?) and slowest enclosure for the new hard disk 💿
- turn my 25yr old printer into wifi printer so I can send printouts from my phone 🖨
- some other random IoT usage 🤖
- anything else ? drop your ideas in the comments 🔎

Workin 24/7 so I don't have to work 9 to 5 🧑‍💻
