Doing Stupid Stuff with GitHub Actions! (FIVE Actions Implemented and Explained)

I decided to have some fun and implement a variety of ridiculous GitHub Actions as a way to learn more about and highlight various features of GitHub Actions.

Here are the actions with timestamp links:

1) Holiday Reminder -- Sending myself a holiday reminder email
2) Recursive Action -- An action that calls itself
3) Exponential Action -- Like the recursive action, but the action calls itself multiple times
4) Smart Lights -- Turning on/off smart home lights with each commit
5) Tic-Tac-Toe -- A game of tic-tac-toe where the compute player plays within an action

Also, the GitHub repo can be found here: https://github.com/sidpalas/stupid-actions

Enjoy!
