Skipped a day because of Christmas dinner prep. Am I almost done? Continued fixing bugs but decided to quit. They were hiding too well. Added a function to proofread instead. That’s what authors do, and probably what I should be doing for my English assignments. Except now it’s making more mistakes than it’s fixing. I need an editor… for my editor function. :(

ok
I got the program to backspace and fix its mistakes, including deleting entire words and retyping them, because humans are weird like that. I spent a considerable portion of my lunch break studying the dumb patterns we use to prove we’re the opposite of artificial intelligence. Genuine, organic stupidity. It hits about 90% accuracy, with a few loopholes I haven’t caught yet. At this point, I’m calling those “features” designed to mimic human incompetence in an office environment.

Created the base skeleton of the project.
It runs via AutoIt script because Windows aggressively disapproves of anything interesting, and this was the closest approach to believable keystroke injection. Set up typo Map so it can make beleivable typos that get fixed. Currently leaves typyos alone.

I made this personal website thing, themed around Captain Jack Sparrow because obviously the world needed more pirates. It’s a mix of portfolio, dashboard, a blog, and pure chaos. I painstakingly completed it with a floating compass that does not point north, a manifest that spouts random quotes because why not, a caffeine meter because vibe, a “Wanted Poster” bounty system for all your imaginary crimes, night mode for dramatic affect, and a blog that actually uses Firebase because, I don’t know, I like pain. I “learned” a ton too, like how much effort it takes to make a page site talk to Firebase without losing your mind, how to make vanilla JS behave, and that no matter how carefully you plan, your compass is still going to lie to you. And yes, somehow I convinced myself this was a good idea.
Fixed Some Pesy Bugs flying around and added final touches to Github. Finished!

I gain my first experience with backend!
Decided today was the day I would finally confront the mysterious beast known as “backend.” Spoiler: it is terrifying. Spent a solid hour (maybe two) watching an endless loop of Firebase tutorials. Tried to follow along. Failed spectacularly. Watched my API keys sit there, unhidden, mocking me. Made a mental note that hiding them is apparently a myth and I probably should have just accepted my fate. Decided to pivot before my brain melted: authentication. Spent the next chunk of time debugging sign-in, sign-out, and anonymous users. Error messages popped up every chance they got. Did I make progress? Kind of. Did I understand what I did? Also kind of. Am I done hiding my API keys? Absolutely not. /Scrapbook/

Day 1 - Created Base Website
Started with a template that I don’t remember how I acquired and built a simple interactive site. Most of the time went into JavaScript because I got obsessive about small details. My indecisive, aesthetically confused brain cried through CSS, but the static site is now complete. I also shamelessly used images from the internet and did not bother organizing them into an assets folder. That problem belongs to Future Me.
