Q2 is rotting oranges. put all starting servers in the queue together and do one BFS
HackerRank, 2 questions, 70 min + work style survey after.
Q1: longest substring with at most k distinct characters (sliding window)

Q1 all test cases. Q2 11/14, TLE because I ran a separate BFS from every updated server 🤦 waiting for result.
