What it does
On reveal: +1 RAM next round.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
RAM is what you spend to play cards.
It costs 1 RAM to play and brings 1 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Tech cards bend the rules: more RAM, cheaper cards and patches that weaken the other side.
The site, in 2015
A yearly Advent calendar of Christmas-themed programming puzzles, told as a story of elves at the North Pole.
It has run since 2015. You send in the answer, not your code, so any language will do. Until 2024 the fastest solvers could climb public leaderboards. From 2025 only private ones remain.
Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
