I had this drilled into me by my parents when I was in middle school! (Already taught my elementary school kid, but they've probably forgotten for now.)

I'm using AoC to learn an old language that's close to my heart (MUMPS). ~30 minutes total for day 1 with minimal prep work (I spent the last few days figuring out how to write a method that reads input from a file....)

Isn't cryptography supposed to *prevent* double-voting?
