  • Day 1: 40:00 (I don't know what I am doing.)
  • Day 2: 14:15 (Okay, but far way from leaderboard.)
  • Day 3: 1st 20:00, 2nd 70:00... (I had a logic error that took me a while to find.)
  • Day 4: 1st 9:06, 2nd 22:31; it wasn't hard but I didn't think quick enough :/
  • Day 5: 1st 25:00, 2nd 1:55:00; Required patience and accuracy
  • Day 6: 13:54; I was slow because I thought it is much harder?
  • Day 7: 75:00; leaderboard 16:00... that was just bad; no excuse
  • Day 8: 25:00; I was doing pretty decent here.
  • Day 9: 57:00; my input parse function did not consider negative values...
  • Day 10: 180:00; this one was hard for me.
  • Day 11: 68:00; okay but not elegant and way too slow ofc; x-ray solution would have been neat
  • Day 12: 52:00 and 22:00 for leaderboard; had the right idea and I am good at this type of problem
  • Day 13: 90:00; pretty straightforward but way too slow
  • Day 14:
  • Day 15:
  • Day 16: 00:27:30 745; best placement so far, of course still horribly slow
  • Day 17: a couple of hours; I realized that I need A* after a while; reused implementation from Project Euler but improved with heapq which was super fun
  • Day 18: a couple of hours; I realized that I need shoelace algo for part two but didn't realize that I have to compute the outer edges for a while and after I did, I still got clockwise/counter-clockwise issues. They could have made it meaner by using different clock directions for example and input.
