Aadvait Hirde
Software Engineer
I'm from Dubai, currently studying at Indiana University, Bloomington. I've been building software for the past couple of years. Working on some pretty cool research in the cybersecurity space and a patent application on my algorithm.
Was bored so apparently I'm writing my own book now. It's like gotten to 400+ pages now somehow. Will publish in July 2026 if I stop obessing over the 0.01in margins, May 2040 if I don't.
