Papal facts. The conclave was conceived in the 1268 election.

After 2 years of failing to elect a Pope, the Cardinals were locked in, rationed to bread/water, and the roof of the building was removed. It took them an additional year to come to a decision.

Truly spectacular stubbornness!

"party city is going out of business" sounds like something my dad would say when he'd come home in the middle of a party I'd thrown and tell everyone to leave

Brooks’ seminal 1986 paper remains ever vigilant in its accuracy.

Implementing day 5 part 2 without brute force was a fun teaser. #AdventOfCode

30ms run vs hours for the brute force.
