seems my #introduction didn't migrate so here we are.
hello. i used to be on fosstodon at @jabster28@fosstodon.org, but running my own seemed fun so now i'm on my own #sharkey instance at mace.lol
i'm currently in university for a computer science degree (no i won't be homeless.). i do a lot of #programming and like to mess around with general #devops stuff (containerisation and networking mostly) in my free time, a lot of my mini projects revolve around automating this or that and making it work with everything else i have in my own ecosystem.
i #selfhost a lot of services for ephemeral file sharing and password management etc.
my main languages are #javascript / #typescript and #rust but i've been wanting to learn some #cpp or c# recently (i don't always want a program that's 1000% correct, cargo.)
(also css is genuinely an a tier language. insanely fit for purpose.)
i do some #networking and find it pretty fun mostly
i play a lot of #splatoon in my free time. i'm also fond of #mahjong, #minesweeper, and #tetris (modern tetris (usually techmino), not the official app) to sink my time into if i'm on my phone or something.
some more stuff i'm into that's probably more fringe:
#wikipedia editing is pretty fun, though it's rare that i'll get a chance to correct/add to an article that i know about and can source. doing coi requests is cool, though, you see some really interesting people
i'd love to be able to do #cooking faster but i feel that's only possible with enough time or money to cook when you don't need to (i have neither)
#libraries are really cool and i'd love to go to more of them and document them. working at one seems fun also
slightly related but i wouldn't mind getting better at #photography at some point (maybe make a pixelfed account?)
my only major political stance on here would probably be that #privacy is a fundamental human right, and a lot of things online right now don't let you control that as well as you should
i guess that leads into me liking #monero, there's not many other ways you can transfer wealth to someone without anyone else snooping. no, b*tcoin doesn't count, it's simply not fit for purpose.
that also goes into #cryptography i suppose. the mathematics inside things like ecdh is pretty beautiful. one of the reasons i'm going to university is to eventually be able to fully understand elliptic curves and a lot of the cryptography we use nowadays.
that's it, thanks for coming to my ted talk. make sure to smash that like button, subscribe, and hit the red bell to get notifications when i upload. also be sure to donate to my patreon and ko-fi, link's in the description. you can also buy the product from this video's spons-
okay i'm done
you should do a random act of kindness today. maybe tomorrow. or not, i'm not your mom.

came to be and what my goals with it are. I left out some historical details (like renaming the project from LibreRiichi to Jikaze) because I didn't feel like they were important enough to mention.
![So let's update our test to formalize this result:
```javascript
...<snip>...
describe(`...`, () => {
...<snip>...
it(`should score little three dragons correctly`, () => {
const player = {
id: 0,
...<snip>...
};
...<snip>...
const { log, capped, points, doubles } = rules.scorePlayers(
players,
windOfTheRound
)[0];
assert.equal(capped, true);
assert.equal(log.includes(`1 double for terminals and honours`), false);
assert.equal(log.includes(`3 doubles for little three dragons`), true);
assert.equal(points, 34);
assert.equal(doubles, 6);
});
});
```
And there we go. Test complete, code improved, two bugs fixed, we're winning! And not just at mahjong, but at programming!](https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/114/021/584/851/017/345/original/48480dbacf5b02fa.png "So let's update our test to formalize this result:
