Big projects like science projects or personal projects that I do over a long period of time and write longer posts about
Introduction This post describes a project I did in the past. It was the first project that I did more-or-less independently of parental encouragement, and I learned a lot of skills in the process. I’d say that this project is the precursor to all my other projects. At some point, my mom bought a wooden…
This was my 2024 Synopsys science project. Abstract While liquid cooling presents itself as an efficient cooling method for ever-hotter integrated circuits, it is confined to mostly commercial applications and occasionally premium desktops. Instead, high-performance laptops rely on heavy and bulky heat pipes to bring heat from processor to radiator, somewhat defeating the purpose of…
The Idea Is Born In my opinion, an ideal alarm clock should: have an easy-to-read time display, produce a very loud and annoying ring, be able to set alarms with multiple criteria, and, of course, tell the time accurately. Most alarm clocks on the market satisfy no more than two of these criteria: very basic…
I realize that the field of hobbyist 3D printing is rapidly advancing and that this post may become obsolete very soon. How I Got It I got this printer used for $30 on Nextdoor in 2020. It was a Wanhao Duplicator i3 v2 that came with frame braces, a glass bed, and a Cobra Cooler…
This was my science project for the Synopsys Science fair which I participated in in 2023. Abstract 1.2 billion people worldwide need to boil water to make it drinkable, even in places considered developed. This is because boiling is simple, versatile, and accessible. While water is commonly boiled, it must take in lots of energy…
