As I am a Dane 🇩🇰, I of course noticed the other Dane 🇩🇰 in the field. Who consistently got very good times and placed 4th in that category (2 hours and 40 minutes to write 15 programs). And who got other good results in other categories as well. Though I see I beat him in a few cases! I am surprised! But then I guess it was a bit of a surprise, that the competition worked in a new way in the non-times categories. Hm. I don’t see a leaderboard split into countries. But the regular everybody.codes has that, and whenever I actually got a few points, I would admire my position no. 2, way behind Feld.

His steps solution for part 1 placed best.

It’s a variation on hammer the log, not the nail, and doing it from both ends at once. Also, 3 heads from each direction and an interesting way of spreading the heads. And a very short program. A golf of 23.
