The point is that if you input, say, 00001, then you will have tested both 0000 and 0001.


How about qwant.com? Privacy friendly, no nonsense by default.

Note that regarding the outliers, in 2015 and 2016 the puzzles weren't as widely known, and in 2020, AWS' load balancers crashed and the puzzle was unavailable to most people for 6 minutes, then solved in a few minutes. https://adventofcode.com/2020/leaderboard/day/1 -- postmortem: https://old.reddit.com/r/adventofcode/comments/k9lt09/postmo...


It's not that bad. I'm sure there are more LLM'ers in there than the one, but you can tell that the majority of the day 1 leaderboard is made up of people who have historically performed well, even before LLMs were a thing.

ImageMagick in Wasm lets you do lots of nifty stuff client-side. Here's a photocopy simulation thingie I made for instance: https://photocopy.fuglede.dk/


That is fun indeed :) Good effect!
