#aoc2024 — Public Fediverse posts

During this week's Data Science team CPD session I realised that a bit of old R code I wrote could be streamlined, and the base R to Python Polars comparison continued.

Joe Marshall started a blog post series about solving the 2024 Advent of Code problems in Common Lisp. Why now? Some of his motivations:

"I wanted to take my time and focus on code quality rather than on how fast I can write it."

[...]

"I want to show how to effectively use the rich set of Common Lisp library functions to write concise, readable, and efficient code."

Late to the #aoc2024 party. Will try to solve the puzzles in #rust.

I didn’t manage to wrap up #AdventOfCode #AOC2024 before Christmas, so I’m filling in the gaps. With style. #clojure

Advent of Code with Deno is over!

Finally got to doing 25th day of #AdventOfCode today and thus collected all 50 stars of this year. 🎉

Now I just need to get back to day 24 and write a proper solution (as I only did it partly in code, partly eye-balling and manually composing the answer; I used not-so-AI, I guess).

There, 10 years of Advent of Code, done :D

#AoC2024 #AdventOfCode

There, I solved day 24 (https://github.com/Balise42/AoC2024/blob/main/day24.dart), including a non-zero part by hand, and I had solved day 25 (https://github.com/Balise42/AoC2024/blob/main/day25.dart) yesterday, so that's another year done, and 500 stars in total :)

On a nerdier note, my #adventofcode repo powers a GitHub Actions workflow which auto-updates my number of #AoC2024 stars in the README.md. 🤓

#AdventOfCode 2024 day 25, in #RustLang.

And that's a wrap! All of the #AOC2024 done! And I even finished on the 25th! This was a remarkably easy challenge for the final day. I never completed a full AOC while it was running, so this is pretty exciting. Looking forward to the future years!

This is the first time I solved an issue on paper alone, without writing code for it. Well, I wrote a lot of code for part 2, but none of it worked. Part 1 was trivial, though.

#AdventOfCode 2024 day 23, in #RustLang.

Seems I forgot to post about the last few days. Not my cleanest code, but I'm happy with the results.

I have solved my nemesis for this year, namely 21b: https://github.com/Balise42/AoC2024/blob/main/day21.dart

And my solution executes more or less instantly, which feels nice, considering the amount of "let's try and wait for 10 minutes and oh look it OOM'd" I got on this problem :D

But I kept trying and I kept progressing until I found the last insight and that actually feels good.
