days 26 and 27 of 50 days to 2026 Yesterday was a long day of work so I was sadly not able to get much done beyond AoC but I did get a nice visualization done for day 6 as well as a visualization contributed by one of my friends jasper which looks amazing! Over the last couple of days I've been refining a script to take incoming college emails which are mostly spam and filter out just the important ones. So far its working fairly well and I'm happy with how reliable its been. If you want to run your own then the code is over at tangled.org/dunkirk.sh/filter-college-spam

Hiiiiiiiii I wanted to share a small (but fun!) project I built recently — a function-grapher written in C. it uses ASCII characters because I have zero shame and basically no UI experience, kind of chaotic, but realy fun to mess with. If you want to check it out, break it, improve it, or just laugh at the code structure — here it is: github.com/Aviadalm/C_Graph_Engine Would love any feedback, ideas, or cursed suggestions 💖

Day 19 of 50 days to 2026! Did some work on thistle today focusing on making the class experience a bit better. I split groups into sessions which should hopefully be a better experience that just dumping all of the lectures in one place. Did a bunch of experimenting with my keyboard as well which was fun. It's tricky to type on and I have to relearn how to touch type which is hard. Tomorrow starts advent of code!

I have a super cool checkout page and subscriptions all sync nicely :) I got a bunch of friends to also test the functionality of the site and got a few papercuts cleaned up! Also did a ton of work on the Murmur service and made that more reliable. More work to come on that front. Also had a fun time solving an LLM jailbreaking puzzle, saihaj sent me (thank you!), and worked on a battleship algorithm until my eyes felt like falling out. Turns out implementing a battleship program to play for you is way harder than I thought it would be. Definitely didn't forget what the docs said the output of move results was, and spent 3 hours tracing the code by hand, all to find out it was a bitwise operation that was needed to extract the actual result. Who me???

made a creator for replicating or recreating cued shows like Eurovision or what else, and gives a LiveEdit-like and a video editor UX and experience. if you've never heard of it, it's a cueing application for live TVs and feel as if they were edited. if you want to know more, you should look up either "liveedit recreation" or "cuepilot recreation" on YouTube, and you'll get it (I'm a CuePilot user btw) source code (GitHub release later): github.com/zeankundev/Showcut download here: github.com/zeankundev/Showcut/releases/latest snapcraft.io/showcut

:hc-tail-blahaj-logo: Day 7/:50days: (Yesterday obv) • I forgot but yes I did so like 1 commit and i finished all the subjects except History and Hindi because they are complex. • I was cold outside. • Added ts to my mom's phone ig • My cousin has come to my house for like till December ending and that means I have a laptop to code. :yayayayayay:

50 days challenge ❄️ Daily update <#C07TTG7NVPX|> | Streak: 8 days! Still sick, but I was able to get more accomplished today... Productive stuff I did for my goals • Edited a video I helped film and put together of a cultural celebration at my school and finalized it for posting on social media! • Planned application to a fun summer program. • Did a batch of calculus problems --- my math notes Google Doc hit 100 pages :0 • Did two practice exams in preparation for my chemistry midterm! That's 40 full-length problems across 100 minutes :3 (attached is a photo of some of my random scratch paper) • Went to my chemistry lab practical today, it went well! I got 100% on the post-lab assessment • Got caught up on some stuff in Hack Club • Uploaded news articles to a site and designed Instagram posts for a small news publication I help edit for! Nice stuff • I was checking university major requirements and found that on top of my existing reqs for engineering (which I know for sure I'm going to do) I just need to take 1 more class for a mathematics minor and 3 more classes for a mathematics major... should I do it to flex bruh (math is my least favorite subject but I find it funny and possibly a valuable degree)

:50days: *day 8/50* more work on README! spent a while scrolling through old event photos and scrubbing through Hack Club videos to make this little Polaroid collage thingy for README's homepage. also made some CSS fixes and wrote some more content. I think tomorrow I'll add table of contents stuff and some style settings, then deploy so others can start writing

day 7/50 again I didn't do much today beyond dragging myself to school and taking a calculus test. I think I did pretty well? I completely blanked on one of the differentiation problems at the end but everything else made sense. I did a bit of investigating for a C++ assignment that is coming up where we have to make an algorithm to execute the most optimal battleship moves and sink the opponents ships before their algorithm sinks ours. I have some interesting ideas on how to execute this (one being training a small ml model which would be hilariously overkill for this). We don't get the source code of the library that actually runs the battleship logic though so I did a bit of digging through ghidra to see if I can find anything useful. Didn't find much but it was fun to play with for sure.

:50days: Day 7/50 I've discovered the .warc file format and I'm now using it to archive thevalleyofcode (see day 6). I've made a small python script to archive a whole website with a whitelist so I don't escape to google.com and scrap the internet :skulk: I've also read a small paper on FastWARC (python library for archiving) but I won't count it for my 50 days goals as it's only one page
