interesting way of doing the search, I searched for
A, and then checked the outer parts, finds the X in one go.Love the visualisation though, I was just thinking this morning that we havent had many yet.
Todays (15) is probably a really good one for a visual.
Perhaps you could run an “advent of vis” where on the first of Jan we post visualisations of our solutions for day 1, etc.
How would that work? Daily solutions threads? Given visualisations probably take a lot more effort and there are fewer creators, might not work well?
Open to trying it or any other ideas
I think just announce it's a thing and let people post as they will. I don't think a daily thread is necessary, for the reason you say but also that individual posts would get more attention - and extra attention is warranted since there's a lot of extra work that goes in to them.
Well this let me reuse most of part 1's logic.
I'll be sure to make one for day 15 when I get to it. Currently 10 days behind though lol
