Older things

• I helped fix a few bugs in an open source Discord bot that converts from imperial units to metric. And yes, I set the thermometer in my room to use Celsius; it's not all hype.
• jMorseCoding, a project in Java for creating messages in Morse Code (docs)

Coming soon

• Blueprints for a neat furniture upgrade that's in the works
• Apparently, sticky notes are a fire hazard. Stay tuned to see how far down the rabbit hole we can get.
