I want to see a Hard puzzle with the One Greater rule (and not just two or three of them in the puzzle). It won't happen, I feel.

Couple days left until Advent of Code.
I have no idea yet if I'll participate, but I haven't done any non-work related coding for like... half a year?
Would likely be a good place to pick back up.
