The last few days (which more difficult) are still challenging for me, a lot of the difficulty is also just intentionally confusingly described problems I find
There are no AoC problems that are "intentionally confusingly described" and I think the creator would take offense to you saying that.

I didn't know there were AoC sicophants too (I thought only rust had those), let me rephrase it for you "intentionally misleading or vague problem descriptions to add to the challenge" better? Or are still offended by my opinion?
No, it's not better. The creator puts a lot of effort and user testing into making the problems as clear and specific as possible, and has given talks on that exact subject. There's absolutely nothing "intentional" about any difficulties you have understanding the problem text. Unfortunately there's only so much that can be done for people who simply can't read.
> Or are [you(?)] still offended by my opinion?
I never said that I was offended, I said that the creator would take offense to your accusation. I'm noticing a pattern here.

The largest challenge is in having enough energy after work to sit down and start coding again.
I really feel this one, it's hard for me to work on personal projects after a long day at work
