hi

2015-12-15T10:47:50.000007Z

how far are you with the challenge?

2015-12-15T11:12:30.000008Z

Hi, just started yesterday so a bit late to the party ^^ I made the 3 first only

2015-12-15T11:13:08.000009Z

How far are you ?

2015-12-15T11:18:18.000010Z

i started 2 days ago, and i did the first 4

2015-12-15T11:18:33.000011Z

the first one, part 2, took me foreeeever

2015-12-15T11:18:58.000012Z

i think i will try the 5th and later, probably tomorrow

2015-12-15T11:32:44.000016Z

the repl is really useful for these kind of challenges

2015-12-15T12:24:02.000017Z

yea

2015-12-15T12:24:22.000018Z

i actually use lighttable for them, so i can use the instarepl feature

2015-12-15T12:24:45.000019Z

but i really wanna leanr how to use emacs or something more powerful that lighttable

2015-12-15T12:26:26.000020Z

im using nvim usually, and i am thinking if switching to emacs evil might be a good move in general, so im in the process of this decision for now :simple_smile:

2015-12-15T13:37:22.000021Z

I was using vim before, but switched to emacs because of clojure

2015-12-15T13:37:37.000022Z

(I was not a very advanced user in vim though)

2015-12-15T13:37:46.000023Z

but now I use emacs for everything

2015-12-15T13:37:58.000024Z

I actually did miss that there was a second part !

2015-12-15T13:38:02.000025Z

just did it ^^

2015-12-15T15:15:29.000026Z

nice

2015-12-15T15:15:48.000027Z

so emacs in evil or normal emacs?

2015-12-15T15:15:59.000028Z

or should i say.. “normal”?

2015-12-15T15:31:21.000029Z

"normal"

2015-12-15T15:31:23.000030Z

^^

2015-12-15T15:31:37.000031Z

(using a modified prelude now)

2015-12-15T15:31:44.000032Z

but I may give spacemacs a try

2015-12-15T15:37:46.000035Z

hm, didnt know about prelude. maybe i can try it sometime

2015-12-15T15:38:05.000036Z

spacemacs was kinda cool, but i think it was too many new things..

wamaral 2015-12-15T15:38:22.000037Z

late to the party, I'm not following daily, still stuck on the 6th day... but here's my 5 solutions so far if you're interested (spoiler alert) https://github.com/wamaral/advent-of-code

2015-12-15T15:39:06.000039Z

yea, i will upload mine too, sometime in the week

wamaral 2015-12-15T15:39:43.000040Z

(I switched from vim to spacemacs when I started learning clojure)

wamaral 2015-12-15T15:39:54.000041Z

been using vim for 4-5 years

wamaral 2015-12-15T15:40:33.000042Z

so far spacemacs is doing its job, though I do miss some things once in a while

wamaral 2015-12-15T15:40:42.000043Z

magit is wonderful, though

2015-12-15T15:41:04.000044Z

yea ive heard about magit.. wanna try it

2015-12-15T15:41:16.000045Z

btw, your day one, is interesting

2015-12-15T15:41:46.000046Z

part 2 of day 1 took me like one hour to find, and its muuuuch more compicated

2015-12-15T15:41:58.000047Z

i like yours

wamaral 2015-12-15T15:47:51.000048Z

thanks :simple_smile:

wamaral 2015-12-15T15:48:05.000049Z

I'm still a beginner though, so that's probably non-idiomatic code

2015-12-15T15:53:57.000050Z

I dont have a clean repo since i jsut do it quickly in the repl, but would you be interested in quick gists ? (maybe I should just make arepo though)

2015-12-15T16:56:49.000051Z

sure :simple_smile:

2015-12-15T16:57:35.000052Z

ok I will in an hour or two from home :simple_smile:

2015-12-15T16:57:50.000053Z

(I'll try to make a few more also to make it more interesting)

wamaral 2015-12-15T22:31:05.000055Z

finally solved 6.1 !

wamaral 2015-12-15T22:31:11.000056Z
