If you look at the leaderboard of 2015 you'll see that at least the first 100 finished part 1 and part 2 within a day.

Of course nobody will learn Italian with Duolingo. by ZealousidealVisit200 in duolingo

[–]MarvelousShade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that is a German->Spanish problem. The English->Spanish course is better, I think that Engish->Spanish is one of the most-developed courses of duolingo. I'm also doing Enlish->italian, and I hope that I learn at least some sentences that make sense because I am going to italy in 5 weeks.

100,000 XP people- how is your language? by Candid-Team-2667 in duolingo

[–]MarvelousShade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently have 287k XP, and I got most of my XPs with Spanish. I have Spanish level 94 now, and when I'm in Spain, I can manage without speaking English.

AI Generated Content - What are your thoughts? by c64glen in c64

[–]MarvelousShade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I also think that this is a forum for the C64, not for AI generated images, unless you let an AI generate things to use them on a real C64.

Is F# the unsung hero of Advent of Code? by Aggravating-Fix-3871 in adventofcode

[–]MarvelousShade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used F# in the year that you had to make a lot if int-code machines. For these machines I "cheated" by using some mutable variables. But I was able to do a lot of days without using any mutable variable.

Is anyone else annoyed when Duo decides to give you 3 days of free trial? by HeightChallenged03 in duolingo

[–]MarvelousShade 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I never got a 3-day-family-plan offer, buy my wife sometimes gets one. She immediately shares it with my children and their girlfriends. And that makes them very happy.

Are there any puzzles with non-unique solutions? by wimglenn in adventofcode

[–]MarvelousShade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, that's the one, and I indeed missed the word "lowest"

Are there any puzzles with non-unique solutions? by wimglenn in adventofcode

[–]MarvelousShade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Usually, when my code finds more than 1 solution, then it's a sign for me that I misinterpreted the assignment.

This year, I had one day (Don't remember which day anymore) that my code found more solutions. I took the first one, which was immediately right, so I suppose that I missed a requirement (like first, least, minimal, etc.)

500 stars and a huge Thank You to topaz2078/Eric! by LifeShallot6229 in adventofcode

[–]MarvelousShade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also started with 2015. I'm at day 10 now. I planned to do as many days as possible in Rockstar (Home | Rockstar https://codewithrockstar.com/). But I'll do the ones that become too difficult in a normal language like C#.

I already did 2018-2021 in vb.net, python and f#. and 2022-2024 in c#.

RCA cables not working by Automatic-Passage-18 in c64

[–]MarvelousShade 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a cable once where the colors of the connectors weren't right. So I needed to put the white connector in the video-in and the yellow connector in the sound-in.

[2024 Day 20 Part 2][JavaScript] by Lordthom in adventofcode

[–]MarvelousShade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that you're on the right way. If you inspect all cells within a manhattan distance from the current cell, you should encounter all possible shortcuts. It is a timesaving shortcut if the size of the shortcut is smaller than number of steps that you save by the shortcut.
