-## capitalization?
+## Contact
 
-yep, I'm doing the 'intentionally lowercase' thing. I like to reserve capital letters for names. more thoughts on this in my [cookbook](https://klay.gay/self-host).
+Some of these will change as I transition from my old internet name 'Nupa' to my new one 'Nycki'. It's just personal preference, I'll still answer to either name for the time being.

-### braceless javascript
+### Braceless Javascript
 2018\. a couple of short programs written in browser JavaScript, with the special restriction that I can't use any instructions that require curly braces, like 'if' or 'for'. instead, I replace these instructions with ternaries and lambdas, which makes this a functional programming exercise!
