By Ursula K. Le Guin, I really like The dispossed and The left hand of darkness, and The Wind's Twelve Quarters (espcially the underground mathematicians measuring the distance to the face of God [the sun], one).

And done! well I had fun.

24! - Crossed Wires - Leaderboard time 01h01m13s (and a close personal time of 01h09m51s)

23!

That's still mostly what it is ^^, though I'd say it's more "awk+sed" for JSON.

22!

EDIT: I have a sneaking suspicion that the computer will need to be re-used since the combo-operand 7 does not occur and is "reserved".

Day 14, got very lucky on this one, but too tired to think about why part 2 still worked.

I liked day 13, a bit easy but in the right way.

Edit: ::: spoiler Spoilers Although saying "minimum" was a bit evil when all of the systems had exactly 1 solution (not necessarily in ℕ^2), I wonder if it's puzzle trickiness, anti-LLM (and unfortunate non comp-sci souls) trickiness or if the puzzle was maybe scaled down from a version where there are more solutions. :::

Day 11

Some hacking required to make JQ work on part 2 for this one.

I remember being quite ticked off by her takes about free will, and specifically severly misrepresenting compatibilism and calling philosphers stupid for coming up with the idea.

One look day 9 and I had to leave it until after work (puzzles unlock at 2PM for me), it wasn't THAT hard, but I had to leave it until later.

Day 8

Al lot of grid index shuffling these past few days! Not too difficult yet though, will this year be gentler or much harsher later?

Day 3 well suited to JQ
