Sometimes Debian Developer, sometimes digging through ancient schematics.

It's either very funny or very depressing to watch executives trip over themselves to prove who has the worst understanding of what software development actually entails.
@aeveltstra I know there's Scribus, but I don't know much about DTP so you'll have to look for yourself: https://www.scribus.net/
Scribus – Open Source Desktop Publishing

@qwertziop @vinzenz Kannst auch retry ablehnen und die Frage nach trotzdem fortfahren bejahen. Zumindest zeigt es mir diese Option.

I've completed "Reactor" - Day 11 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2025/day/11

Catching up now, doing days out of order. For this one I had a slow solution (20 or 30 minutes or so), but a relatively simple optimization finally gives me the solution in ~65 ms.

I've completed "Playground" - Day 8 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2025/day/8

Now it's picking up a bit. Run time for my part 2 solution is around 101 ms, more than 1000x yesterday's solution.

Day 8 - Advent of Code 2025

That's after enabling -O2 optimization, which I didn't notice wasn't enabled before.

My benchmarking runs the solutions in a loop until at least 2 seconds of run time accumulates and shows the average of all runs.

Finally implemented some benchmarking into my #AdventOfCode runner to see how well my Ada implementations are doing.

Longest (part 2) solution this year has been day 4 with about 1850 μs. Current day 7 comes in around 85 μs. (Depending on CPU temperature...)

@teotwaki Right, I forgot about those. I've been trying the @openvibe app, and it appears that's missing in the Mastodon support? At least it doesn't prepopulate the reply with the tag, so that is easy to forget.
Good to know, good thing I haven't published any AoC repo yet. I dimly remember maybe reading that in past years, but I forgot.
I didn't know AoC delivers different inputs to users. Interesting! So if I were to post outputs there probably isn't really a need to censor/spoiler results unless it's to hide the order of magnitude.
