But actually, real internet truthers know that the above is a revisionist version of history put forth as a psyop by russian troll farms, in addition to inventing AI chatbots and adding fluoride to water. This is all to weaken and feminise western men and turn them communist.

The evidence? owo actually comes from the Russian word "хорошо", meaning "good" or "ok", and its usage is normalising russian language in today's tiktok-pilled youth. This was a strategy cooked up by known cult leader Rajneesh, of course known in Russia as Ошо. Of course, uwu comes from the Russian word "Ушу" which is a secret programming command for the proletariat to learn Wushu and other forms of chinese/communist martial arts so that people can rise up and seize the means of production.

So my understanding is that uwu/UwU originates as a kaomoji, think (^.^) and (O.O) etc. Using the 'w' character to render the mouth starts as a furry thing or a general projection of human expression onto common animals like cats or dogs. (You'll see the omega symbol used in examples as well.)

Over the last 20-30 years or so of online interaction etc. kaomoji start to gain a sort of cringe notoriety alongside RP chatting, culminating in a few catalysing memes/copypastas.

Eventually "owo" and "uwu" start being read aloud/vocalised, similar to how people starting saying "lol" out loud, and this is associated I guess with a cutesy sort of image, though that image is often corrupted or subverted- for example e-girls, who co-opt a lot from of gaming and anime subcultures, lean into the uwu of it all.

followupSo memoisation is predictably needed for part 2 to run in time. It's an O(e^n^), so it takes seconds by step 39 and minutes by step 47.

Day 11!

discussion p1 + 2I'd say this was pretty easy. My instinct was that 64 bit ints were big enough for this problem, and that memoising would also be a good idea. I didn't experiment with a control though, so I don't know if memoisation was truly necessary. Either way, my initial solution for 1. was performant enough for part 2.

Menawhile: tenga stock prices soar because apparently their toys are so good that a guy was willing to kill for them to be banned

OwO what’s this?

NB: I will not perform sleuthing, i.e. reading up on this guy or anything he wrote. I don't think it's worth it

Is it crazy that I don't think that the guy is the shooter? I don't see the EA crowd, famous for bootlicking, being up to the task of CEO assassination.

Day 10. I lied about doing this later, I guess.

p1, 2 I accidentally solved 2. before 1.My initial code was: for every 9, mark that square with a score of 1. Then: for (I = 8, then 7 ... 0) => mark the square with the sum of the scores of the squares around it with a value of i + 1.

Except that gives you all the ways to reach 9s from a 0, which is part 2. For part 1, I changed the scores to be sets of reachable 9s, and the score of a square was the size of the set at that position.
