Recomendo o livro "The Software Architect Elevator", que fala da importância de conectar os moradores da cobertura com a galera do porão. É mais focado no mundo corporativo onde essa distância é maior e mais visível, mas serve pra todo mundo.

My idea to use a plane abstraction is to be able to rotate the plane in all directions, including diagonals, to search for the string for part1.

Code can still be refactored for readability.

Now with optimized code at github.com/rodgco/adven....

My initial idea was to abstract the board in a Plane struct, storing the data as a long string and accessing each element by calculating the coordinates `x + y * width`. Not performant at all, then moved to a Tuple of Tuples. Waaaay faster!!!

I don't use it professionally, It's just a way to keep me connected with the developer in me.

I've taken the management path, but as I'm being forced to rethink my career I'm considering the possibility.

Elixir is a great language, but IMHO the OTP framework is incredible.
