Feeling like publishing an npm package for a custom React hook to set up IntersectionObserver on arbitrary nodes. I'd be cribbing the implementation from a Medium article but the unit testing could be fun.

Google might be a soulless corporation with individual employees capable of locking me out of every part of my phone if they think it necessary, but it's nice that the first time I tried it on Gboard, it knew that after the second consecutive "alright," the correct prediction is "alright" regardless of how many times it's repeated

I keep my Facebook profile read only to the public because anything else is a farce, so if you see me talking out of my ass about cryptography there, feel free to correct me about it here.

#introduction

I'm Serra. I like to program and read research, despite being bad at both. My attempts at Mastodon so far in the past were trying to be like popular, cute, funny trans people, and well, I'm really only one of those. I don't particularly agree with some of the political choices of qoto.org, but I've decided to just fucking mellow out about my politics, and I'm definitely drawn to the overall purpose of the instance. Pronouns I accept are at allgood.link/pronoun_preferences, and if you wanna make my smile, feel free to mix and match.
