A few more days of Advent of Code...
Day 15 - Chiton
Another path finder, this time with different costs for different paths. This screams for Dijkstra, but for part 1 I still did a more stupid brute force solution using code similar to Day 12 (but using a stack instead of recursion).
For part two my brute force solution was too slow, so I ...

Day 6 - Lanternfish
Did the first part via an Array, because I was expecting some GoL stuff in Part 2. There wasn't and the Array-based solution would take forever for part 2. So after a bit of thinking (and (for once) not looking at reddit for ideas) I realized that the position of each fish is irrelevant, and we just need to count the fish.
