Hello World
My first post on viralthakar.com — what this site is, why I built it, and what to expect.
Why I Built This
I’ve been meaning to have a personal site for years. Not a portfolio. Not a landing page. Just a place to think out loud.
This is that place.
What You’ll Find Here
I spend most of my time at the intersection of machine learning, engineering teams, and shipping things that actually work. So that’s what I’ll write about:
- Applied ML — what works in production versus what sounds good in papers
- Engineering leadership — growing teams, making decisions, staying technical
- Teaching — how to explain hard things clearly
- Side projects — things I build to learn
Some posts will be long. Some will be short. All of them will be honest.
A Note on Format
The site is intentionally minimal. No ads, no newsletter pop-ups, no tracking pixels. Just text and code.
If something resonates, I’d love to hear from you. Find me on GitHub or LinkedIn.
Thanks for reading.
