I've just transferred all of my serious projects on Codeberg over to a separate organisation, and I've noticed that there are now only two mediocre repos on my main profile. Does anyone have any ideas for simple, handy things I could build to flesh it out?

I code mainly in Python, I know HTML (but not JS), I regularly use Bash and Zsh, and I am learning C++.

Have you tried writing a program that checks if other programs will ever finish running? Should be a quick and easy project!

Adding a Turing award to your profile is certainly one way to flesh it out

Process.start(program, arguments)
Print("it finished")

"Will ever finish", not "has already finished". It needs to predict.

It's a reference to this.

I'm aware, the halting problem is semi decideable - only positive instances of the problem can be decided.
