day 22


3:08 pm 16 february 2026
Everything will become reality. Very soon. go maek it happen man
first up, doimog update; my first ever project has sorta levelled off at 2700 photos. this is actually so cool. everything i do is succesful. my whole fucking college used it. i posted it on hacker news, like a couple hundred people tried it from there. but like seriosuly, 2700 people uploading their photos to get rated is so fucking crazy. good success. lets keep going man
another sorta thing i was thinking about for long was PROGRAMMING. i wasnt sure what to do wrt leraning languages etc, but then i just remembered im a math kid man, the point of programming for me is not to leran some stupid syntax, or write code, the point of programming for me is to build a bunch of cool sthi. and thats all imma do, build a bunch of cool shit. obv if i need to learn something i will, but premature optimization does no good. lets also go back to doing a bunch of cool math man. yeah every single day just do a bunch of cool math. get really good at a lot of math, and make a ton of cool shit.

im listening to close to you (radio edit) sitting on the window ledge. yeah we're just going to have fun now. this is my fucking life, and i can own every thing bruh. imma go do a fellowship this summer and im like realy going to own the world man. yeah fr thats it. all the way up.
first up i wanna build out my blogging site. letsgo.
3:37 pm
Ok let's work.
4:26 pm
yah im not wasting time on the internet at all normore. i sorta desrcibed the exact idea of what im trynna build.
one thing tho mony, if im not doing the whole programmer archetype, like i do wanna be a programmer who can actually build shit right. but since the exact code is not what i actually care about, i need to be the math guy. like really reaally really good at math, and thats my first love, like the main thing about my life too anyways so yeah. i love math. im great at it. i cant wait to change the world, learn a bunch of cool math, become one of the best in the world and do a bunch of CS too. just have fun man lesgo.
5:44 pm
ok man stop wasting time thats really fucking it. no more wasting time at all. DO IT NOW.
lets build out this blogging shit and then do math.
3:13 am
bruh i sorta slept for a while. im actually frustrated with this shit now. ok im done, i am going to work every single second from now on. every single motherfucking second nigga. life is perfect bruh.
I think my blogger platform is built, lets build it out completely today. before sleeping cos daily blogs every single day now. i swear man.
listening to i took a pill in ibiza seeb remix. so fucking happy. this my life nigga; lets checkout localhost:3000
3:35

ok so this was a bunch of bs. lemme think more deeply about this.
4:48 am
man im just sleeping. listen, no internet all day tmrw tho, like literally just do not. no negotiation. thtas it.
1:11 pm 17 Feb
I woke up and got straight to work. wanna fix my blogging thing first. like my life is actually perfect bro. i had such a cool fucking dream. about a really cool startup i made. and how hard i worked and how much fun it was. and how i sold it. and then today morning when i woke up, i was boutta go on instagram but there was no internet. like life is just perfect bruh. yeah lets keep working.
2:33 pm

yeah so my webapp is *almost* perfect now. i uploaded day22 onto monyatwu, without using the terminal atalll. one last change i need to make is, like one last feature is ; on my folder we dont currently see the default.html; so to edit that and rsync/scp it id need to go to vs code or wtv, which is ehh not optimal. so yeah lets fix it.
1:10 am 18th february 2026
yeah i had fixed it, i can do end to end now. pic5
this is genuinely cool as fuck. lets go and live the dream now.
wow so my bloggin webapp is completely made now.
yeah come on then man, dailyblogs every single day. make every single day legendary man. yah thats all i gotta say. just have a lot of fucking fun and do a bunch of cool shit every single day. math, projects, cs everything. come on man. own this world. make history. all the way. up.
2:08 am
yah i demoed my blogger webapp to both daksh adn sagnik ^_^
i took a pill in ibiza seeb remix YAH. lets just keep having fun, reading the clawdbot guys blog. man imma really own this world bruh. lets go. lets fucking go. imma rewrite/rethink my 60 day goals too. this summer im really goated. social network time nigga.
2:25 am
yeh im really excited as fuck for everything in the future bruh. like im really just excited as fuck. so many cool proects to build. and now im blogging every single day too. also we oughta get back to math like right fucking now nigga. just have the most fun possible. ok yeah i just feel like i just wanna do the coolest shit possible at every single moment.
right now that is the hinge project.
basically, i had this idea long back, but yeah basically, im perma face banned on hinge for a prank i'd done. so i had this idea, what is the minimal changes we can make to a face so that it can fool facial recognition, like maybe we just change a few pixels, maybe we need some transformation. idunno, lets find out.
3:21 am
ok so gemini and deepseek gave cool answers, chatgpt is being sort of a cuck... heres the thing, this seems very very very tough. so i like started like sorta running away from it and wasting time etc. but this is it, things ARE going to seem tough. i am one of the best in the world at math tho, so i can do ANYTHING man... ANYTHING, lets go learn and do this shit now.
this song is genuinely goated man. all of yall go listen to it. pic6
genuinely vibing hardasf to this. lets work now. systematically.
5:09 am
ok this hinge project seems like its going to be a LOT of fun ahha, so fucking excited bruh. looking at LowKey and Fawkes rn which are something something adverserial models. lets see.
5:15 am
So basically what Fawkes and Lowkey do are they sort of poison the training data, so like these ppl cant build a clean model of your face. but the problem im trying to solve, say monyuse, is that hinge already has a clean model of my face. i wanna transform my images so that their facial recognition does not recognise me with that clean model. ok cool.
btw mony playlist shuffling. life is just perfect. perfect start to my ML journey haha.

bruh why is chatgpt being such a big fucking pussy. fuck you.
5:52 am
yeah so i just feel so fucking excited when im jst thinking about math. man like fr, i wanna do cool shit, post cool shit, just have fun with life. thats the whole fucking point. yeah lets figure out the past literature.
6:32 am
ok so im not really sure what direction imma proceed in mathematically, the first thin im doing tho is making a small script, which wait lemme explain:
apparently the way these models work is they get your face and then they give you an embedding \(v_\text{you}\) in a high dimensional space, then for any photo it can calculate its embedding value and then calculate \(\text{dist}(v_\text{you},v_\text{changed})\) where dist can be cosine similarity or just euclidean distance or wtv. some sense of distance, and if the distance is too small, then it will flag it as the same person. So yeah my script will basically, ill feed it my photo to give me a \(v_\text{you}\) and then i will try a bunch of changes to my face to see what changes give me a big dist. i mean yeah experimentally this is what we're gonna be doing till i figure out the math. DailyBlogs every single day before sleeping btw. Also
Momentum man. momentum is the name of the game. work so absurdly hard bro like actually just work absurdly hard man. i mean yeah thats it.
7:02 am
ok so what i did was exactly that... i used this image for calculating \(v_\text{you}\) :
pic8
and for these following images, pic9
the cosine dist in order was 0.3,0.7,0.25,0.9
For the full stats, for instace for the first image, the exact stats were:
cos_sim = 0.694523
cos_dist = 0.305477
l2_dist = 0.781636
interesting.... i mean im not quiet sure how i'll solve this problem, but one thing is for sure, this whole cos_sim, cos_dist etc business can do a bunch of interesting stuff.... ahhh
ok im done with this for today, lets keep working hard and have fun tomorrow. like dont waste no time is the main thing bro, like frfr. right now, imma go publish day 21 blog too and then we gonna go to sleep.
7:23 am
ok yeah donezo. day21, bruh it was 25 images, this is genuinely such a nice experience yay. lets publish this too and put up ig stories and we gucci. night night man, lets have fun
