"Doing Work Outside of Work is Fucking Stupid" - completely disagree with this take. I got into programming because I like it, and the challenges in aoc are fun. I'm not doing work outside of work, I'm having fun outside of work, and it's alright to invest about an hour of my time into it. Also, you don't have to chase the leaderboards? You can just do it in the comfortable pase, it's not like the internet points mean something
After day 5 part 2 I take it back, it's not fun anymore it's suffering. This is my first time doing aoc, I didn't know what I was getting myself into.
