I’m building a blackjack simulator/research tool called Blackjack Wonk. It started as a hobby project and turned into a deeper engineering rabbit hole than I expected. The goal is to make the simulations reproducible and trustworthy enough to test the kinds of blackjack questions that usually get answered with rules of thumb, anecdotes, or forum arguments. So a lot of the work is around deterministic runs, validation, configuration, and chasing down small discrepancies until I understand them. Very niche, but a fun mix of math, software, and curiosity.
