Advent of Code 2025 8 months ago

the adventofcode subbreddit is pretty cool to visit once you've finished. i learned a new approach (for puzzle 2/2) that i wouldn't have, as my first approach was 'good enough' and i would've left it at that.

i don't think it should be a charity of their choice. i think it should have to be one of the top 5 most reputable charities in the world, like doctors without borders or salvation army.

i was drunk and at a bar.. zig and nim got up to do karaoke together.. elm was there... anyway, they started singing.. 'weeee are the champions, my friends..' it was fun. i got up. 'no time for looooosers, cos we are the champions..' so fun. we had these awesome, delicious cocktails.. they had strawberry in them (with 3 r's) and guido made a toast. he said he couldn't sing but wrote down my name for a song. 'abracadabra'. heh, i want to reach out and grab ya! i nailed it, then did another queen song. eventually we went out back and smoked a joint, but we were so drunk, it knocked us out.

"I loved my nerdy tinkering indoors so my kids must have their own Linux box by the age of 5" (instead of playing outside)

if you give them an amiga 500 with floppies (or even worse, a c64 with a datasette) i'm sure they'll be playing outside as much as they can.
