The Adventures of Blink: Advent of Code 2024

#adventofcode #python #programming #learning

Hey pals! I decided to participate in the Advent of Code this year. If you're not familiar, it's a coding challenge that releases one small problem every day from December 1 to December 25. You can solve the problem in any language you like.

You can totally participate in the challenge and try to make it onto the leaderboard if you desire (the first 100 correct solutions score points each day)... but I'm just using the challenge as a way to sharpen my skills.

I'm posting my solutions to this GitHub repo. I also intend to release a summary blog post reviewing my experience at the end.

If you even dabble in programming, this is a great exercise for you... come try it out!

(And of course, I'd love for you to follow The Adventures of Blink - stop by and read a post or two, or come by the Youtube channel and watch the first two seasons in their entirety!)

🐯 🚀 Timescale is now TigerData: Building the Modern PostgreSQL for the Analytical and Agentic Era

We’ve quietly evolved from a time-series database into the modern PostgreSQL for today’s and tomorrow’s computing, built for performance, scale, and the agentic future.

So we’re changing our name: from Timescale to TigerData. Not to change who we are, but to reflect who we’ve become. TigerData is bold, fast, and built to power the next era of software.
