I just completed "Lobby" - Day 3 - Advent of Code 2025
Part 2 made me implement a recursive generic version of part 1 that was actually much simpler

There's funny parallels here with another puzzle-y thing dear to my heart: #AdventOfCode!
This is another global leaderboard that operated on the honour system, *really* didn't matter in the grand scheme of things, yet people started to game (via LLMs) which ruined it for everyone else.

Wanted to learn @gleam.run through #adventofcode - got stuck on a Graph problem and didn't want to port my Elixir or F# solutions to Gleam. Then it occurred to me, why not collect a few graph algorithms in one place and do myself a favour?

Gleam is a beautiful language.

Duurde even, maar de winnaars van Infi's #AdventOfCode 2025 Tribute puzzel zijn bekend!
Er zaten wat pareltjes bij hoor :D. Wilco geeft op ons blog de highlights van enkele inzendingen: infi.nl/nieuws/adven...

i only have 15 minutes to demo this so I can explain some actually-useful basics and walk through an #AdventOfCode example
or, I can do a tutorial about geomantic divination in APL 🤔

Here's my 2025 day 3 #AdventOfCode solution (in #Python, per usual)! An extra clean little dynamic programming problem.

Finally.
Gaussian elimination is all you need.
# auxiliary classes Point = Data.define(:x, :y) Rectangle = Data.define(:corner1, :corner2) do def area ((corner2.x - corner1.x).abs + 1) * ((corner2.y - corner1.y).abs + 1) end def xy_bounds x_min, x_max = [corner1.x, corner2.x].minmax y_min, y_max = [corner1.y, corner2.y].minmax [x_min, x_max, y_min, y_max] end end # intentionally naive for argless methods module Memoize def memoize(name) original = instance_method(name) ivar_name = "@#{name}" define_method(name) do if instance_variable_defined?(ivar_name) instance_variable_get(ivar_name) else instance_variable_set(ivar_name, original.bind(self).call) end end end end
# Advent of code - Day 9 class MovieTheater extend Memoize attr_reader :corners def initialize(filename) @corners = File.readlines(filename).map do |line| x, y = line.strip.split(',').map(&:to_i) Point[x, y] end end def solution(advanced: false) = advanced ? max_inscribed_rectangle : largest_area # Part 1 def largest_area = all_rectangles.map(&:area).max # Part 2 def max_inscribed_rectangle = sorted_rectangles.rfind { inscribed?(it) }&.area || 0 private memoize def all_rectangles = corners.combination(2).map { |pair| Rectangle[*pair] } # Part 2 def sorted_rectangles = all_rectangles.sort_by(&:area) def inscribed?(rect) x_min, x_max, y_min, y_max = rect.xy_bounds !intersects_rows?(x_min, x_max, y_min, y_max) && !intersects_cols?(x_min, x_max, y_min, y_max) end def intersects_cols?(x_min, x_max, y_min, y_max) col_spans.any? do |x, (c_min, c_max)| next false unless x > x_min && x < x_max c_max > y_min && c_min < y_max end end def intersects_rows?(x_min, x_max, y_min, y_max) row_spans.any? do |y, (r_min, r_max)| next false unless y > y_min && y < y_max r_max > x_min && r_min < x_max end end memoize def row_spans = corners.group_by(&:y).transform_values { |cs| cs.map(&:x).minmax } memoize def col_spans = corners.group_by(&:x).transform_values { |cs| cs.map(&:y).minmax } end
I started refactoring #adventOfCode Day 9 in #ruby and in this case I opted for extracting auxiliary modules (Memoize) and classes (Point and Rectangle).
Unusual for AoC but satisfactory.
My goodness the weather in Ottery is hideous today (and has been all week). As my normal outdoor activities have been curtailed, I've started #AdventOfCode 2020 in #Fortran 77 (mostly). 11 days completed. Will I get to the end before the weather perks up?! #RetroComputing

Filed under: stuff I never used in Python
But, hey, someday I might need this to complete #AdventOfCode or something.
