One of those Saturdays that reminds you you’re not quite there yet — having near tripled the xwstats median solve time.
Enjoyable Friday. Speaking of enjoyable things, should I be able to see the new midi in the iPhone app? (Asked last week but couldn’t access the thread after.)
Not seeing the purported midi in the iPhone app. Can anyone help?
@Whoa Nellie From the point of view of pure UX, the optimum is a mix of high difficulty and low difficulty puzzles. (Dopamine (q.v.).) Thus someone like me, averaging 40 mins for a Saturday, is excited to knock one over in 13. If there’s a clever plan in place it’s probably that, though I suspect it’s just natural variation around a difficulty mean that’s slowly decreasing over time. (Saturdays from 2016 are genuinely much harder — there are months where I average well over an hour after eventually conceding things will have to be looked up.)
