QuickTime Turns 34
On Dec. 2, QuickTime turned 34, and despite its origins in Apple’s chaotic 1990s (1991 to be exact), “it’s still the backbone of video on our devices,” writes Macworld’s Jason Snell. That includes MP4 and Apple’s immersive video formats for Vision Pro. From the report: By the late ‘80s and early ‘90s, digital audio had been thoroughly integrated into Macs.

Day 2 was pretty tough on my old hardware. Part 1 originally took 16 minutes, then I got it down to 9 seconds – only to realize later that my solution abused some properties of my particular input. A correct solution will probably take about 30 seconds. 🫤
Part 2 took 29 minutes this morning. I wrote an optimized version but haven’t tested it yet. I hope it’ll be under a minute.
Python 1 feels really slow, even compared to Java 1. And these first puzzles weren’t even computationally intensive. We’ll see how far I’ll make it …

Thinking about doing Advent of Code in my own tiny language mu this year.
mu is:
- Dynamically typed
- Lexically scoped with closures
- Has a Go-like curly-brace syntax
- Built around lists, maps, and first-class functions
Key syntax:
- Functions use
fnand braces:
fn add(a, b) {
return a + b
}
- Variables use
:=for declaration and=for assignment:
x := 10
x = x + 1
- Control flow includes
if/elseandwhile:
if x > 5 {
println("big")
} else {
println("small")
}
while x < 10 {
x = x + 1
}
- Lists and maps:
nums := [1, 2, 3]
nums[1] = 42
ages := {"alice": 30, "bob": 25}
ages["bob"] = ages["bob"] + 1
Supported types:
int
bool
string
list
map
fn
nil
mu feels like a tiny little Go-ish, Python-ish language — curious to see how far I can get with it for Advent of Code this year. 🎄
