Teaching and learning resources • Re: Advent of Code 2023

Here it is October 2024 and I'm wondering how to make Advent 2024 more fun. My theory is doing all the programs in Julia last year--useful since I'm teaching a course with Julia--made the puzzles too similar to work.

I asked Fido for ideas. Tail wagging the chair of the fun and hosting committee referred me to a recent blog by Jeff Geerling

https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2024/ ... -4k-gaming

and suggested solving the Advent 2024 puzzles on a Pi-connected GPU.

Noting that dogs seem to have strange ideas of fun, I read read the blog and
One downside to the Polaris generation AMD graphics cards is ROCm support was dropped years ago, so using the RX 460 for compute is a bit tricky.
After careful consideration the dog developer proposed a backup plan: If ROCm doesn't work then hosting will provide a dog treat for each puzzle solved.
