I know a lot of people use AoC to try out/learn a new language. I tried that with Go in like 2018. However, I found it too frustrating (especially since AoC requires a lot of string parsing/regex which are difficult/verbose in Go).

The past few years I've decided to stick to the same principle I've used in all of my side projects recently. Either I do something in a new language, or I get it done correctly before I get bored. I've found I can't have both.
