I find it useful for trying new languages. The first 10 days usually start very easily and progress quite gradually. The 2nd half definitely gets more brutal, but if you do have the self-control, you can stop whenever it stops being productive.

I love it for these meta-type use cases that aren’t necessarily about solving the puzzles.

For instance I’m using it this year to dial in new neovim configs. Last year was to get comfortable with a split keyboard.
