Not sure about that. Weโ€™ve got plenty of home grown loons here in the UK.

The frightening shadow of black magic comes to Christmas A quiet East Anglian village hides dark secrets. And a visitor's stroll through Grimley Wood uncovers a chilling history that wonโ€™t let go

In the quiet days following Christmas, Roberts, a visitor to a quaint village, uncovers a long-buried secret in the woods. But what he finds will haunt him forever.

Dear all, really good to see my friend @naqvima.bsky.social on this platform.

Muhammad is a thoughtful and very principled gentleman, and posts some very thoughtful comments.

An excellent connection to have...

Dear Keir Starmer, If you donโ€™t do something to stop Musk bankrolling Farage - urgently- you are signing the death warrant of UK democracy.

Labour continue to bark up the wrong Brexit tree while the mood of the country stampedes away from them.

(If you've not been paying attention, various Labour bigwigs have made a point of reinforcing their "no to SM, CU, FoM or Rejoin" message in recent weeks.)

The Media won't acknowledge this video of the farmers blocking an ambulance with its blue lights on so could you could RT it so people see it?

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says the public want to leave the ECHR

Let him know heโ€™s wrong by sharing this widely

Rider is a fantastic alternative on a Mac if you prefer that platform.

I work in a team that develops across Windows and macOS then deploys to Linux and itโ€™s pretty seamless on all.

Main decider would be your IDE / platform preference Iโ€™d say.

Farage falls apart over Brexit on 38th Question Time appearance!
YouTube video by Femi Farage falls apart over Brexit on 38th Question Time appearance!

Nigel Farage lied throughout Question Time last night, and embarrassed himself on Brexit.

Here's a full reconstruction. #bbcqt

It's in dotnet 9 C# 13.

Shaved time off by:

* Ensuring I only checked visited positions.
* Using structs for storing history.
* Parallel running the obstructed simulations.

I think the structs made the biggest difference but the parallel running got me down even more:

Day 6 - Advent of Code 2024

I've now completed refactoring my "Guard Gallivant" - Day 6 - Advent of Code 2024 solution and managed to shave Part 2 down from 8000+ ms to around 900.

Happy with that ๐Ÿ™‚
