Here's an excellent #AdventOfCode write-up by the person that got first place overall on the global leaderboard in 2019 (and 2nd in 2018), @betaveros: blog.vero.site/post/advent-l…

Good luck in your future home. *hugs*. Levenshulme will miss you two, even if we didn't get to see one another much this year :/

Zombie is indeed about that time. It's also a cracking choon, and one of my favourites for running up hills to :D

I often write the README in the hope that the tool will write itself after that; sadly it doesn't :(

Yeah hence the use of saturating_duration_since and friends in my fix :D

I imagine `Instant::now()` uses the wall-clock, and thus it can go back in time :(

Today's favourite commit message: "chore: Correct potential panic should the installer time travel into the past" The things I do for the @rustlang installer.

Ugh, halfway around my run today and my calves started to threaten cramps. 10km of walk/try-run/nopenope/walk later and I'm home

Okay sounds like it has potential, I'll put it on the list :D Thanks for persisting :D

Specifically my difficulty is that I often simply 'freeze' up and can't get my hands to do what they need to on the game, rendering action sequences a bit difficult. I failed quick time events on Detroit:BH despite being on 'easy' mode. I failed them a *lot*.

That looks to be a run+shoot type game which is not really what I want. Have I misunderstood the high action rapid moving trailer video?

Finally I played Detroit: Become Human through. And I am massively saddened that in the end my attempt to make choices was entirely derailed by my inability to handle 'Quick Time Events' - I was trying to play a story game, not a twitchy thing. Oh well.

You look almost sheepish there, like you've been caught doing something naughty and been told "show the class what you were doing Jon!"

And we'll miss you Tim. Though when parkrun starts up again, if I'm not too fat to get out of the front door, we shall meet up and you can roll me around the park :D
