@jasonschreier.bsky.social I'm reading "Last Devil to Die" and I lay the blame fully at your feet for all the emotions I'm having at the moment!

I haven't touched Minecraft in years but with all the updates it's pretty great, and honestly I'm considering this self-care now.

I will never not giggle when typing "man find" or "man users" into my terminal.

#AdventOfCode Day 20 Did I stay up too late? Yes. Did I enjoy Day 20? Also yes. I wouldn't call my approach efficient, but I'm happy with it! github.com/pantzon/adve...

#AdventOfCode Day 19 Not too bad today. My part 2 took me a bit to get done in a timely manner, but nothing some memory usage wouldn't resolve! github.com/pantzon/adve...

I love Futurama, but catching up on Season 12 and Episode 2 "Quids Game" is up there for one of the worst in the whole series...

#AdventOfCode Day 18 Sorta a palate cleanser after yesterday. Fairly straightforward, Part 2 only took me 10 mins after finishing Part 1. github.com/pantzon/adve...

#AdventOfCode Day 17 Generally enjoyed, and I liked the realization of how large the answer to part 2 must be, preventing brute forcing. I got the answer a bit ago but brushed it up (my solution was specific to my input, now it should likely work everyone's input). github.com/pantzon/adve...

#AdventOfCode Day 16 I was told a* always came up, and lookee here. github.com/pantzon/adve...

#AdventOfCode Day 15 That part 2 was a doozy, and instead of being smart I decided to be direct. Took a bit longer than I wanted, but still got it done. github.com/pantzon/adve...

#AdventOfCode Day 14 I might've "cheated" a little. Notably, instead of figuring out how to calculate groupings, I just used my eyes. Worst case, I'd only waste 5 mins looking at the first few hundred configurations. It was a good gamble in the end. github.com/pantzon/adve...

#AdventOfCode Day Friday the 13th Maybe they're scared of Jason, because there was a lot of extra concerns thrown into this problem for what was actually a very simple math answer. I really thought Part 2 was gonna be something like "now there are 3 buttons"... github.com/pantzon/adve...

#AdventOfCode Day Dozen Busy day but finally got through it. I thought I had a good solution for part 2 so it took me a while to realize I fell into the explicit trap the problem warned me not to (counting edges when two fully-enclosed-plots meet at a corner). github.com/pantzon/adve...

#AdventOfCode Day 11 I've gotten used to doing things the most straightforward brute-force thing with these, so I was very happy with Part 2 requiring a more nuanced approach. Could be cleaner, but I'm good with what I got. github.com/pantzon/adve...

#AdventOfCode Day 10 This was a pretty straightforward day where again, the only real issues were flubs in my typing (or forgetting to download the input data!). I'm sure a TDD would help here, but I haven't felt like setting that up for these. github.com/pantzon/adve...

#AdventOfCode Day 9 D'oh! Forgot to share this one yesterday when I finished. Decided to treat the memory as a single array and do lots of index-math. I got at least 2 infinite loops by forgetting to actually do i++ at the end of a loop XD (thank you Golang) github.com/pantzon/adve...

I, who barely cooks, shall share my opinion on volumetric measurements in the US and why they're bad. A rant in 4 posts:

#AdventOfCode Day Gr8 Was pretty straightforward this time. I was super ready for part 2 to have more of a trick up it's sleeve. I definitely think the description implies there could be more locations, however my simple approach worked. github.com/pantzon/adve...

It'd be interesting if all murders got as much attention as the murder of a wealthy white man with questionable ethics.

#AdventOfCode Day 7 Made the mistake of looking at this before sleep tonight... I also keep making the mistake of trying to be clever instead of keeping it straightforward, and that causing problems in the long run... But this was a good exercise to humble myself. github.com/pantzon/adve...

#AdventOfCode Day 6 Again, overthinking caused issues. Tried to be smart and see if adding a box would set the guard on a previous path, instead of recognizing that it could create a new untrodden loop. But still, interesting exercise. github.com/pantzon/adve...

#AdventOfCode Day 5eva Oh my, somehow I convinced myself there would be page numbers _not_ tied to a rule, and I got wrapped up in managing that until I re-read the problem. I probably over-engineered by using a doubly-linked structure when 2 maps would've sufficed... github.com/pantzon/adve...

The other day I was looking for a real-life Catch-22. There are plenty, but Korea gave me a new one Monday: - The law says Parliament can vote to end Martial Law. - The Military declares the Parliament cannot organize to vote.

Another day, another #AdventOfCode My heart really wanted me to go crazy and use like go routines and channels in a kind of producer/consumer. But my brain kept it straightforward. github.com/pantzon/adve...

Yes, I love "Resurrections", but it got played that much cause it makes a great alarm to wake up to. Soft and slow build.
