Hmm, the video quality looks oddly bad. I'm guessing I messed up one of the settings in my video editing pipeline (it has been 11 months since I last did it...), I'll try to fix it for future days!

@nthistlethwaite Ай бұрын

In case anyone's curious: the issue was that I was exporting a 4k video with a target bitrate of 2 Mbps... I turned it up to 60 Mbps and quality issues seem to be gone (for day 2).

The speed at which you understand the problem is insane.

Randomly looking through AoC solutions for today and ran across your channel. Hope you are doing well Neil!

Hey Nick! Good to hear from you, and yep I'm doing well 😄

one day I will code like you, just not today! very impressive man

@n0ne0ne Ай бұрын

in your python setup, can't you write a piece of code at the end that automatically copies `ans` to clipboard? I'm pretty sure this can be done and it will save you a few seconds.

@nthistlethwaite Ай бұрын

Yeah, I saw that ecnerwala does this, I probably should too I just haven't gotten around to it.

@gorillaglued Ай бұрын

yeah there is pyperclip, which makes it pretty easy

I used set( ).intersection( ) with .count( ) didn't think of Counter. still pretty fast one I have to say that reading the problem statement is slower than writing the code. so it makes sense the guy that used llm to solve it would have got it in a few seconds. llms seem quite capable at reading and extracting meaningful data from the text. so with it being simple tast and has plenty of examples, llms would be very much capable of solving this instantly.

I raised video quality to 2160p 4K but your camera is still at a quality from dial-up Internet era

@nthistlethwaite Ай бұрын

Ah yeah, see the pinned comment, I accidentally exported at 2 Mbps 🥲

@nthistlethwaite Ай бұрын

Day 2's quality should be better!

@harisimer Ай бұрын

Bro, rank 1 is 9 seconds and rank 2 is 54 seconds. Thats a bit much different, isnt it?

@nthistlethwaite Ай бұрын

Yeah, I think the rank 1 person solved automatically with ChatGPT or similar - it sounds like they weren't aware that this was against the rules and they already apologized for it.
