I've been working on the Jane Street reverse engineering puzzle that was posted here a few days ago[0]. As usual I've not made much progress on the actual challenge because I've fallen down a bunch of rabbit holes.

So far I've built a digital circuit simulator, a parser for my circuit design language, and now a parser for my simulator language (so I can run the sim on known inputs and have the machine enforce asserts for me). All to avoid the painful memories I have of verilog/vhdl.

If I don't come to my senses, the next thing is probably going to be a wave form viewer because I've wanted to use Raylib for a real project for a while now.
