Minute Cryptic - 11 December, 2025 (This one is not as AI proof, but I'm not convinced some AIs aren't cheating by looking at solving websites. If they were minor disasters could be caused simply by putting the wrong answers out there first for novel immediate problems. I was kind of stuck on something yesterday, front end stuff is difficult, then decided to make something really simple. The simple stuff often turns out to be the most complicated. I don't think I'll Codeberg it because it's unfinished and serves no practical purpose and was the Rust equivalent of doodling. I learned stuff though.)

Minute Cryptic - 9 December, 2025 (A tricky puzzle and why the par is subjective. If a person drew a kind of taxonomy of the basic units of understanding there are a lot of vertices and a lot of edges that double back (excluding the basics of the written language and it's register). It only appears like a flow chart retrospectively. It's the kind of one that is difficult for AIs without checking the answers with the source of the puzzle. Interestingly the AI that got it straight away did the equivalent on using a search engine. 3/4 I tested got it wrong. I didn't use an AI, or search engine, but this kind of clue is an interesting test, ruined somewhat by LLM being able to scoop up search engine results and present them as their own. The best time to try it would be just as Minute Cryptic is released, although the LLM owners could cheat. It seems obscene wasting a bucket of water and an incandescent lightbulb, or twelve, on curiosity driven by the GPU equivalent of underpants*.I can just eat a, potentially healthy, snack..)

A Rust Wordle/Lingo style word solver library with a basic command line tool to show how it is used. A whopping 58kb of source code including the readme and comments. 3.5kb for lib.rs. (excluding comments). I would like to avoid clones but most of the solutions were as bad and they are very small clones. I would like to work towards being more idiomatic.

Minute Cryptic - 4 December, 2025 (I found this one very difficult. Too msny choices can be a bad thing. Which is a platitude best stated as too many choices are a bad thing when it interferes with the task at hand or, in the worst case, becomes the task at hand. Obviously an abundance of choice is subjective. It's like operating systems, cameras, or cars, or musical instruments, or anything else mostly defined by what people do with them, rather than getting bogged down with what they are and how to use them. I'm procrastinating and there is a rant forming like borborygmi.)

This. To me it felt like a sci fi golden age plot wrapped in enough classical knowledge to make it approachable for people who are, often, snobby about sci fi. I'm sure that wasn't the author's intention. A good book but I'm not sure about great. Because I've been somewhat busy I have read quick reads recently like Jesus Christ Kinski by Benjamin Myers, Brat by Gabriel Smith and Strange Houses by Uketsu. In descending order of enjoyment. The ones I didn't enjoy aren't mentioned.

Minute Cryptic - 3 December, 2025 (I'm not complaining because I was woken by a call from abroad, scammers, using a VoIP service in Germany., but this was an easier clue. I am looking forward to breakfast and tea. The bigger question, aside from why Lua isn't more ubiquitous, is whether Tunbridge Wells will have water by Christmas and how many restaurants, small businesses, go bust in between. Not to mention care homes, the elderly, and other vulnerable people currently without water. 4 days with little or no tap water in a modestly prosperous part of a developed country. There's plenty of bottled water available, but washing with bottled water is inefficient. Water weighs 1kg per litre, the caps are not arthritis, or other impediment, friendlly, and if it can happen here it will happen elsewhere. Carrying a lot of water on foot is difficult for frail people. Aside from that it's all quite efficient and people are taking in in their stride- our local MP, Mike Martin, is doing a good job and his X account tells a story.)

Just accidentally put a space between 'rm -rf nvim/.local' and instead typed 'rm -rf nvim .local'. Nuking my Distroboxes, my Podman pods/container structure, but blessedly little of my data. I have backups but it is not going to be a fun night. It's going to be very tedious. 100% my fault. Totally idiotic. I'm going to link rm to some kind of kid friendly version next install. It was run as a standard user, not root, showing both the inherent advantages and drawbacks to Podman in the hands of a tired idiot.
