don't write code like me, kids git.hollymcfarland.com/monorai

for recreational purposes i like to make Garbage

advent of code 2025 day 2 

amy decided to not do the clever math thing i was struggling to implement to check a lot fewer IDs, something about how we were thinking about it was subtly wrong and the naive approach was fast enough. i do like her regex-based approach to part 2, that's cute git.hollymcfarland.com/monorai

day 3 part 1 was easy, part 2 says "now do it without the approach you took in part 1"

we let the naive solution run for 15 hours and it didn't complete, maybe we'll think about it more later git.hollymcfarland.com/monorai

slightly overengineered this one (really didn't need to use classes, really didn't need an enum, there's even some unused properties i thought i might need) but i had fun practicing with complex numbers git.hollymcfarland.com/monorai

@monorail oh yeah complex numbers is a creative way to approach this, nice

@wallhackio i used to use simple Point classes that were basically just 2 element tuples that had __add__ defined on them, but i saw someone last year mention complex numbers and i thought it was really clever
