Shrestha

Focused on systems and backend development, primarily in C++.

I'm a CS student @ CSUF. This is where I keep what I build, what I'm learning, and a little of what I do beyond code.

What I'm working on

Mittens

A Discord bot that brings your Teamfight Tactics results into the channel.

Tracks players through Riot’s API and posts placements, ranks, board values, units, and traits. An asynchronous worker queue handles ranked, normal, and double-up matches, avoids duplicate posts, and saves tracking in SQLite across restarts.

Mittens announces Frost’s promotion to Platinum and a first-place TFT result, with rank, match statistics, traits, units, and item icons.

mksh

A Unix-like shell built to learn what happens after you hit enter.

Tokenizes and parses commands into POSIX process calls. Supports cd and pwd, pipelines, redirection, quoted strings, and command sequencing. Tested across the lexer, parser, and executor; a learning project, not a fully POSIX-compliant shell.

ls [path] · pwd · cd [path]
cat <file> · echo <text>
grep <text> · wc -c / -l / -w
clear · reset

Try: cat readme.txt | grep demo
Quotes and simple pipes work.
Files are simulated and read-only.
Simulated filesystem and commands. Not the C++ binary.

A timeline of cosmic history and its possible future, from the earliest moments through the formation of atoms, stars, and galaxies. It follows how an expanding, cooling universe developed into the structures we observe today, then considers what might come next.

Kasparov versus the World

In 1999, Garry Kasparov played an online chess game against a team drawn from more than 50,000 participants in over 75 countries. Kasparov controlled White; the World Team voted on Black’s moves. The article follows the game and the analysis, debate, and coordination involved in turning thousands of individual opinions into a single move.
