Issue 662 - December, 12th 2024

This week we have a bunch of advent of code posts for your enjoyment. On a programming note this is the second to last issue for 2024.

If you are interested in sponsoring in the new year there are still some openings in the first half. I will be opening the second half in January.

If you enjoy this newsletter I'd appreciate it if you shared it with your friends and colleagues.
