My main mistake on day 1 was reading the whole intro to AoC again and not skipping it.

Instead of calculating the sum / finding the top value automated, I decided to go for "read it from the Browse" to save up a little time. (Summarize is obviously the preferred way to get persistent information).

I am surprised by the story with elves in the jungle, but I am sure it will be adventurous (again).

Day 1 done ! ✔️

 

AoC being back feels very good !

Easy start to dive in, before something like IntCode pops up and we lose hope ...

 

I could have done better on part 1 by summarizing using Max agregation instead of using the combo "Sort-Sample-Select".
