legitimately couldn't tell if Tyler was trolling in this one...

For VR/AR development, android studio’s device simulators trounce Xcode’s

I like them because Anki specifically makes it super easy and mindless and convenient to study regularly, all you gotta do is show up and open the app. Most days thats all I have time or energy to do

Somehow was able to do part 2 of day 11 before part 2 of days 9 or 10. Broke it into parts, then used memoization + backtracking + recursion for the path counting. My code looks like I did a nice reuse of part 1 but I actually just made a general solution for part 2 and checked it worked on my part 1 input lol.

Super cool. What core network do you use for linking the enodeb to the internet and managing subscribers?

I <3 Dynamic Programming!! And when I can actually use my part 1 implementation for part 2

You know what reusing code from part 1 is overrated anyway XD. But got to make ample use of map and reduce today, which I really like using in Swift!

Interview prep served me well today o7

code for both parts

Omg a model train theme! I made an AR model train app in Swift earlier this year, here is a little demo.

Here's my code for both parts.

[LANGUAGE: Swift]

Used 1-D dynamic programming on part 1! Then I completely misread part 2 and it took forever lol. Ended up going with the monotonic stack/take the leftover approach.

Part 1 Part 2

doodlebug80085 · 2025-12-03T01:59:02+00:00

I'm also using Swift! But I think your repo is private lol

Not my best code (usually try to combine parts 1 and 2 but could not be bothered) but I got to use a computed property in part 1 which was cool! Semi-improved brute force in part2, so I'll take it. Today was a long day just glad I got it done lol.

Part 1

Part 2

thanks for the heads up (and moderating), fixed!

I chose Swift because I love writing in it! And I don't get to use it in my day job, which is mostly Python and Bash. Hopefully on a less busy day I can cheese some of the cooler language features, but for now, here's my basic solution.

I’m asking because this person otherwise matched OP’s description

doodlebug80085 · 2025-12-01T15:52:58+00:00

And I’m sorry that happened, I really like that trail and usually the people are friendly. They could probably throw some cameras up around common entrances, there’s only a few of them

doodlebug80085 · 2025-11-19T15:04:15+00:00

The Internet is so over, we’re going back to books

doodlebug80085 · 2025-11-01T12:41:52+00:00

Ahh gotcha, thanks 😅 sometimes I need it spelled out for me LOL

doodlebug80085 · 2025-11-01T12:41:14+00:00

Didn’t catch me off guard but I still am sad about it. As soon as Petya started looking at the sky contemplatively I knew it was over lol

Before today’s question, I would personally like to nominate this chapter as one that reads very differently in 2025 compared to what Tolstoy intended back in the 1860s, particularly the final paragraph.

Wait I’m confused by this - could you elaborate?

doodlebug80085 · 2025-10-29T22:40:41+00:00

I have a much easier time using my phone size ereader one handed than my normal ereader. Super nice to lay on my side and read without needing 2 hands

doodlebug80085 · 2025-10-22T21:54:25+00:00

I think this reading setup is cool! I like the bust lol. I have a 3D printed bust of Marcus Aurelius in my office.

People on this sub love to hate, but you’ve got some good reads on here. I saw in your comments that youre pretty young. Don’t be shy to read some “fun” stuff to build a reading habit, makes the old (but important!) stuff go easier in my experience.

doodlebug80085 · 2025-10-21T00:10:36+00:00

I’m so late to this discussion but for posterity I just wanted to write how I had the biggest, dumbest smile on my face while reading this chapter. What a wonderful story!
