Hello All,

With less than 5 days to kick off, I thought I’d make a post to let you all know that this isnt an unmoderated ghost town, and I will be creating the daily threads as per last year. I am time zone-challenged, so if its late you’ll have to be patient and bear with me.

Looks like the leaderboard from last year can be reused, so I think everything is all sorted!

If there is anything I can do to improve on last year, please let me know.

Looking forward to seeing the new challenges and novel solutions!

    Thx for the heads-up, I kinda forgot. After my hard-mode adventure in Haskell and my woefully under prepared Rust attempts, maybe it’s time to pick something safer. I’ll probably go with Julia this time around, give it a proper test.

    I wasn’t able to complete last year’s AoC as I am 10+ hours ahead and I am a bit daft. Hoping to do this year’s AoC in a new language so I can practice. Thinking Zig, Golang or Rust.

    Hoping to complete AoC in real time using Rust this year. Is it possible for new users to join the leaderboard?
