I learned I should have deleted every single phase 1 file from my computer before starting phase 2. Goody two shoes Claude code and codex kept screwing me with over constraining time and not using weights(all the while being more than happy to swipe ideas from wherever without a careful eye on them).
Meanwhile deepseeks trying to sell me the “just rename the functions and throw everything in the ini bro” drugs.
I spent a crazy amount of time trying to harness matlab, mathematica, julia, Microsoft Discover and a few others without success. Was really hoping to come up with something new for this phase without luck.
Hindsight should have just bought Deepseek’s drugs, lol
Congrats on finishing top of this.
