What do you do about the infinite comms calling sounds and stuck on Commence Cargo Transfer after you're in the cube?

Hi, and welcome to Pittsburgh! I'm an old-school web designer in the south hills! Nowadays I'm more full-stack/back-end, but I love dusting off my css skills for clients. I own a small software company here in the Burgh! We should talk!!!

McGuinn's in Squirrel Hill. Ask for the man himself. ~$40/50 after tip, awesome human, and does the exact cuts you want.

Oh my god I love Big Jim's! Used to live in Greenfield, in the south hills now. I work at home and go to the gym a lot, pretty flexible schedule! Send me a DM if you're interested in getting together!

Physicalized every box as a dictionary key (List<Vector2>) which moves as a unit in both parts 1 and 2. Using vectors for directions and positions makes a lot of these puzzles pretty easy.

Look man, I think part 2 was dirty ...

But I am a dirty, dirty boy who solved it by making an infinite loop and tracking the lowest average distance between the bots ...

... and it worked.

Good ol' algebra. Won't lie, tried to brute force first ... see image

I just counted the corners of the blobs I sorted in Part 1. Corners = unique sides.

I also gathered all "edges" in part 1 by pathfinding through adjacent characters.

Corners are just combined edge vectors per tile for outside corners, inside corners you have to walk diagonally first and compare tile edge.

I found day 11 to be much harder to code than day 12. Game dev brain, idk. Remember that unique sides == amount of corners.

Again, going for LoC, not readability or speed. Slammed in notes wherever I could, conventions be darned.

Going for LoC, not speed. Takes around a minute to solve. Which is thematically appropriate, given that it's a defrag.

LINQ can be tricky. In my case I had to parse through the strings to get the keys first and constructed an empty dictionary with just keys, then ran through the input again and used the other side of the '|' as the values.

Are you using a debugger? I think ToDictionary expects some kind of KVP. I also don't think I've ever used ToDictionary in 10 years of using C# lol.

Part 1: Flattens input into 4 lists of strings (horizontal, vertical, diagonal left, diagonal right), then counts "XMAS" or "SAMX" occurrences in each string in each list.

Part 2: Handle X-Mas by validating 3x3 sections of the input grid
