Most of my commits are in JavaScript from internship and club projects on React and React Native
stacks. My recent focus is C++, Python, and Rust.
Rejected draft suffixes shared long runs with the target continuation at 30–56× the
chance rate, but the surviving content was usually shifted. Practical reuse policies
remained 3–6× below break-even.
