A messy drawer? There should be at least two: one for the kitchen and one for general.

I’m reading some of these replies thinking I’m getting gaslighted by railway operator employees. Unless they actually sell “absolutely no sitting” tickets and the conductors fine abusers, this ticket makes no sense.

Tell everyone that I’ve just watched a Jordan Peterson video and I’m going down the rabbit hole and ask them if they know where I can get my hands on some ketamine. My irrational behaviour and urgent need for fast access to my funds would then seem pretty par for the course.

he likes to larp in the words of a better man

That’s such a great description of this kind of tech-bro behaviour.

True. I'm certainly at the point where quick jobs that I would have once done in Python quite often get done in Dart instead, avoiding the "context switch" of having to think in Python for that one task.

Yes, when I did a search, I found I had a choice between two quite small and inactive communities, so I went for the slightly larger one. I'll crosspost today's post to that community see if it stirs up any more interest.

Yes, I really adopted it due to Flutter, but the dev team really are doing great work to make it a nice language, especially with version 3.

 

Hi all,

As many people here may already know, Advent of Code is an annual programming challenge that runs from 1st to 25th December each year where each day a new puzzle is published for you to solve. The puzzles ramp up in difficulty during the month and can test your familiarity with core computer science principles and algorithms.

As the title says, I'm currently going through my entries (written in Dart) to last year's challenge and rewriting them to run in your browser using DartPad. I'll be posting one a day until 25th November to the Advent of Code community on lemmy.world.

It's fairly quiet there at the moment, but I hope that with enough awareness of the community, it will liven up enough over the coming weeks that I don't have to go back to the other place for interesting discussions and hints next month!

Cheers, Michael

You forgot: uses dark mode.

Yep, "boot-scraper" 😀

I watched Severance by mistake, thinking I was watching Succession, which meant I was totally disoriented for the first few episodes as I waited for Brian Cox to turn up. It was glorious. Can totally recommend.

Hi OP, I thought would be a great question for the newly created Geology group, so I posted a link to it there and got this great answer -- in short:

There are many small fossils on that rock. It would be hard to tell what the rock itself is from just the photo. Limestone is the most likely candidate.

Go and read the full answer for more details!

If you're happy with the answers you've got could you edit your title to add [SOLVED] at the end? Thanks, Michael
