<span class="posts-list-item-description">
<div>
<p>The <a href="https://adventofcode.com">Advent of Code</a> is upon us once again. Every year Eric Wastl weaves together a daily series of clever challenges into a delightful story. They can be solved in any language and method you want, including brute force, and I look forward to it every December.</p>
<p>Which is an odd thing to say maybe considering I&rsquo;ve never made it further than a dozen days in. It just seems like every year the work project I&rsquo;m on catches fire and needs my full attention and my drive to work on coding challenges for fun just fizzles out.</p>
<p>I&rsquo;m fully expecting it to be true this year, too. I just started a new project this week, and the whole reason I&rsquo;m here is they are short-staffed and under the gun to deliver a fully functional robot in three months, if not sooner. I&rsquo;ve already accepted the fact that it&rsquo;s going to ratchet up the pressure over the next few weeks and not loosen up for the holidays. I&rsquo;m ok with that.</p>
<p>Still, I&rsquo;m ready. I&rsquo;ve been wanting to loosen my reliance on GitHub (same as I&rsquo;m loosening my reliance on Twitter, Instagram, etc.) so this was the perfect time to try out <a href="https://gitea.io/en-us/">Gitea</a>. Programming is surprisingly social (especially coding challenges like AoC) so I spun up <a href="https://git.kestrelsnest.social/">git.kestrelsnest.social</a> and created a placeholder repo for <a href="https://git.kestrelsnest.social/eric/adventofcode2022">my 2022 solutions</a>. When the first puzzle lands at midnight, I&rsquo;ll be ready to go.</p>
<p>And if I only make it three days, that&rsquo;s ok.</p>

<span class="posts-list-item-description">
<div>
<p>It was a day full of good things. Here they are, in chronological order:</p>
<ul>
<li>read two chapters of Dan Moren&rsquo;s book &ldquo;<a href="https://dmoren.com/the-bayern-agenda/">The Bayern Agenda</a>&rdquo; while drinking coffee in the hot tub before work</li>
<li>the things that didn&rsquo;t work in my new project yesterday started working</li>
<li>attended my first standup with my new teammates</li>
<li>ate a delicious chicken pot pie for lunch</li>
<li>returned a library book that was six years overdue and wasn&rsquo;t charged a fine</li>
<li>voted in the <a href="https://warnockforgeorgia.com">senate runoff election</a></li>
<li>got a delicious dirty spiced chai</li>
<li>installed gitea at <a href="https://git.kestrelsnest.social">git.kestrelsnest.social</a> and initialized a repo for <a href="https://adventofcode.com/2022">Advent of Code</a></li>
<li>made buffalo chicken legs for dinner</li>
<li>took my youngest to their first rehearsal of a <a href="https://pix.kestrelsnest.social/i/web/post/503348491074470007">neighborhood brass band</a> based on a poster I saw stapled to a telephone pole</li>
<li>ate leftover pecan pumpkin pie</li>
<li>watched several episodes of <a href="https://taskmaster.fandom.com/wiki/Taskmaster_Wiki">Taskmaster</a> and had quite a few good laughs</li>
</ul>
<p>A good day indeed.</p>
<p>Postscript: It occurred to me right after posting that this could have been titled &ldquo;Is the ketamine working? Signs point to yes.&rdquo; More on that later, no doubt.</p>

<span class="posts-list-item-description">
<div>
<p>As a software developer that gets loaned out to other companies, I tend to have quite a few &ldquo;first day on the job&rdquo; days. Today was one of them, joining a team working hard to get a new bio-lab robot on the market.</p>
<p>As is typical with joining a new project, I spent the entire first day trying to figure out why nearly nothing in the README actually worked.</p>
<p>Computers are the worst.</p>
