I care less about the "military" style of the guns, and more about the training these cops have. Do they have high standards for trigger discipline? Are they terrified of dogs and will cap one if it barks? Will they consider the ramifications of what happens if they miss their target and the round hits someone behind? Are they capable of deescalating a situation?

I have no problem with well armed cops, and I don't even care if they are paid well, but they need to be of the highest standard. Wish the journalists would dig into that rather than lazily fearmongering about "military style" rifles.

    It could be that I was using particularly shit SD cards, or putting too much continuous load on them, but I have killed a handful of them over the time I used them. I dunno, could be user error for sure.

    I have never managed to kill an SSD though, so I trust them much more.

    Hi All,

    With a few days remaining until the 2025 kick off, its time to get ready to save Christmas once more!

    This year is only 12 days, but that just leaves the rest of the month for refining solutions and visualizations.

    I have setup a bot to post the solutions threads, but as traditional AoC code style, it likely wont work most of the month. I'll try keep on top of it. As always, if there is something I can do better, please let me know!

    Also, thanks to @hades for running the Everybody.Codes threads, its a thankless task, but its good to diversify the challenges.
