If you like art and have the means to provide support for it, I recommend checking out this Kickstarter. A classical painter spent 10 weeks bumming around Japan making Japanese style watercolors. Now he’s making them available as postcards, an art book, signed and numbered woodblock prints and even the originals if you’re wanting to throw a lot of money down.
I’m in for the art book and may still put some money down for the postcards.

Day 6 of Advent of Code completed in record time (less than an hour). Part 2 took me maybe 5 minutes of adjustment, which was surprising.
My knowledge of Typescript is no longer holding me back, I can largely manage without searching for common things.
I think my number of searches this time was 2. First to see if there was a built in zip() function like python has (no) and then second to verify the syntax of filter() on an array.
I feel like I'm back writing Perl again with lines like this:
Number(line.split(":")[1].trim().split(" ").filter((e) => e != "").join(""))
