I just completed "Race Condition" - Day 20 - Advent of Code 2024
Running a bit behind. Very interesting problem for Day 20, where reading the problem correctly lets you make the right assumptions while solving the problem.

Interesting part 2 today. Brute force definitely didn't work and had to look for patterns (and a bit of Reddit help) to identify the solution

I just completed "Plutonian Pebbles" Day 11 #AdventOfCode
This was such a fun problem. A very simple part1 and a expected complication in part2 that just has you rethink the solution. But once you do the, part2 is simple as well and something that just cannot run runs in ms. So satisfying!
