@join3r @leo I'm doing #Python, but @leo is doing it in #Lisp. Reading his code was super difficult for me, so when I gave him the suggestion I wasn't actually sure if he did only dirnames or full path actually.

Sometimes, we really do think of complicated solutions when simpler once are available. In #AdventOfCode today, I used the line

layer = [line[i + 1 : i + 2] for i in range(0, len(line), 4)]

And just now realized it could've been much simpler as

layer = [line[i] for i in range(1, len(line), 4)]

#Python

Been asked several times today if #AdventOfCode2022 is possible on vintage computers. The answer is "some of it". Today's was doable. Takes a minute to read 2200+ inputs from a floppy, but it worked. #commodore

I guess I haven't posted an #introduction yet, so here goes:

Hi, I'm Tom, live in #belgium, and am a freelancer in IT. Previously worked mainly with #cisco #UnifiedCommunications products, but now have switched mainly to a dev role using #python.

In my free time, I love dancing #balfolk and playing #boardgames. And watching a good #film or #tvseries is also fun of course.

I practice ethical #polyamory in my relationships.

Wat nou palindroomdag, "2202 rebmevon 22" is toch onzin !?
Seeing my timeline as a new Mastodon user following @mmasnick seems to imply that if you post about Mastodon, Mike will boost you. 😂
