Used to love playing dice on various crypto sites. Always have been in awe at those custom dice bots that people have built on Chrome.

And I've noticed that there isn't one for Edgeless (dice & blackjack with 0% edge), and so I've created a dice bot that allows a multiple steps martingale strategy.

It's open source and 100% free, give it a roll!

I realized I was spending a whole bunch of time tracking down web references for my grad school assignments (and forgetting most of them) so I made something super simple that generated them from my bookmarks:

Not extensions, but I have a few userscripts I use to fix minor annoyances with various websites:

- Netflix - Skip intros and quickly go to next episode

- Github - Linkify branch names in PRs

- Yelp - Open directions in a new tab rather than a modal

https://github.com/choyg/ChromeNotis Notifications toggle. The code is comically simple but it's the one extension besides adblocking I regularly use.

So simple that I actually didn't know any js when I wrote this which has become quite clear to me when rereading the source
