@help_delhivery my 5 shipment are stuck or on hold and every time I raise the ticket.. I just get the same status which I can see on the portal and ticket getting closed after that... Please help or can I connect with some human at least to understand the concern ?
If you’re in software, start learning electronics.
The next decade isn’t about more apps —
It’s about putting intelligence into physical things.
Why this shift is real:
1. Software is becoming easy, cheap & crowded.
2. Electronics needs builders.
3. Chips, sensors, microcontrollers, power systems — this is the real frontier.
4. Software gives you leverage.
5. Electronics gives you capability.
6. Together, you’re unstoppable.
7. The world is going physical again.
Don’t miss it.
Every website must have it, FREE Open Source Widget !!
Here is the github link https://t.co/gWG88Bxawo
It adds a simple “Ask AI” button to any website.
So visitors can click once and open ChatGPT / Claude / Perplexity with a pre-filled prompt like:
“What does this company do?”
“Who is this for?”
“What services do they offer?”
It’s FREE + open-source and works on:
Webflow / WordPress / React / plain HTML
If you try it, would love feedback (and PRs are welcome).
As AI becomes part of everyday work, language hasn’t caught up. “I did it” feels off.
Now we describe our work like this....
The work was handled by AI, and we stand behind the outcome.
“AI did it” feels like shifting the blame.
What we actually mean is simple: AI helped, and we stand behind the result.
Build your first AI camera
This is a ₹800 ESP32 camera pointed at a bird feeder.
When it detects movement, it captures a photo. No subscription. No app store. Just a microcontroller, a camera sensor, and code you actually control.
Why software folks should care:
You already know loops, conditions, and APIs. Now add: physical triggers, actual images, things that happen in meatspace.
That's the unlock.
What you actually need:
ESP32-CAM module (₹600-800)
FTDI USB-to-serial programmer (₹150-200)
Stable 5V power supply (phone charger works, but get a good one)
Arduino IDE + ESP32 board package
Claude Code / Codex / Cursor or any AI coding assistant
2-3 hours for your first build
Here's where AI coding tools change everything:
You don't need to memorize ESP32 libraries or camera initialization sequences.
Just tell Claude Code/codex?cursor: "Set up ESP32-CAM to detect motion and capture images when triggered"
It'll generate the setup code, handle the camera buffer configuration, write the motion detection logic, and set up the web server—all the hardware-specific stuff you've never seen before.
You focus on the logic. AI handles the syntax you don't know yet.
What the code actually does:
Starts a camera server
Watches for motion (pixel difference detection)
Captures JPEGs when triggered
Sends images over WiFi to your laptop/phone on local network
Is it perfect? No. Will it trigger on wind and shadows? Absolutely.
But you'll have built something that sees and reacts to the physical world.
The real lesson isn't the bird photos.
It's realizing that sensors, actuators, and embedded systems aren't some dark art. They're just another API—except the input is reality and the output is tangible.
And with AI coding tools, you don't need years of Arduino experience to start. You need curiosity and willingness to iterate.
Once you cross that bridge, you start seeing opportunities everywhere:
Warehouse inventory that auto-counts
Retail displays that know when someone's looking
Security systems that actually understand context
Home automation that doesn't need cloud permissions
Fair warning: This will be frustrating. Drivers won't install. Power will be unstable. The camera will be grainy. Your first motion detection will trigger on literally everything.
But that first moment when YOUR code captures a photo because a bird landed?
That hits different.
Getting started:
Order the ESP32-CAM kit (comes with programmer)
Open Claude Code or Cursor
Ask it to help you set up the Arduino IDE for ESP32
Tell it exactly what you want to build
Let it write the boilerplate while you understand the logic
Debug together when things break (they will)
₹800. One evening. One AI coding assistant. One weird little camera watching birds.
That's your entry point to the physical world.
The hardware is cheap. The AI tools are ready. The only thing missing is you actually doing it.
If you’re in software: Build THIS next.
You already made a light blink.
Good. Welcome to hardware.
Now let’s make something move.
This is where it starts feeling real:
You move your hand → A motor turns ON. You move away → It turns OFF.
No dashboard. No cloud. No app.
Just reality responding to you in real time.
This is the moment most software people go:
“Oh… this is different.”
And this is also where confidence explodes.
If you can do this, you can build:
fans, doors, pumps, alarms, robots, cameras, dispensers — whatever your brain can imagine.
Next post I’ll break this exact build step-by-step like I did with the LED.
Build in public
Go into debt if you must.
But build a home lab.
For your kids. For your future. For real skills.
Screens teach consumption.
Home labs teach creation.
AI, hardware, biotech, robotics , the next generation won’t grow up, coding websites. They’ll grow up building reality.
Ten years from now, your kids won’t remember the car you drove.
They’ll remember the lab you let them grow up in.
A table.
One 3D printer.
Some wires.
A soldering iron.
A computer.
That’s enough to change a family’s trajectory.
Build it messy. Build it small.
But build it.
