Re:Unofficial Advent of Code 2025 Survey Results (with "Emotions" Added)
on Saturday December 13, 2025 @02:53PM (#46257404)
Released the results of my yearly (highly unscientific :D) Advent of Code survey, roughly 2300 folks answered questions this year about Language/IDE/OS usage, reasons for participating, and (new in 2025) how strongly the primary emotions pop up while puzzling.
You can also slice these "Emotion" charts across Language, IDE, and OS to compare subgroups. These slices are persisted in the URL so you can share your favorite "comparison" with others.
There's a corresponding Reddit thread if you like to check it out: https://www.reddit.com/r/adventofcode/comments/1plqm0v/2025_...
Hope you'll enjoy these stats!

I'm a web developer by trade, and did an eight week Game Development project during a sabbatical. This devlog post describes my personal opinion and sentiment about the differences between the two areas of development, and I'm curious to see if HN readers can relate or have different experiences.

Crafted my yearly survey results dashboard for Advent of Code and shared it on Reddit at https://www.reddit.com/r/adventofcode/comments/kj53l1/unoffi... - curious to hear your suggestions and feedback so I can improve it next year!
Ask HN: What are exemplary REST APIs?
There are many good resources about writing APIs, but I'm also curious what the crowd here would consider great, exemplary REST API's? Looking for things like well-structured URI's, great design of request and response bodies, useful error handling, useful and beautiful documentation - as well as dealing with real-world stuff that can make API's and REST hard (pagination, wanting to do RPC...

The 2017 edition was the first time I participated, and I severely underestimated how much fun it would be! Am participating (and to a much lesser degree competing) again this year :D

Perhaps it's a browser extension/plugin that got hacked?

Shame, the "" (pizza emoji) won't work in HN titles. (Makes sense though...)
