Trip day. Heading to Scotland 😁.

Can’t say much about this tbh. It’s easy to be opinionated about this in either direction. But it has impacted a lot of younger people in tech. It’s just sad sad sad to see this happen.

A2SV stopped operation as of today due to lack of funding😢 @bakacodes

So y’all know about my memory issues and if you don’t it’s fine. Now I planned to take some time off from work starting from wed (the day before yesterday ) till the coming tue. Then plans got changed and was working wed and yesterday as well. But apparently I didn’t change my out code in the calendar and they deducted a day from my holiday breaks 😭😭😭. I’m begging my boss to change it back to a normal day because I can’t update past days 😭😭😭. I need life as well as memory 🤦‍♂️.

So if you’re into competitive programming, I would assume that you know about ETCPC. As great as ETCPC competition is, it is limited to university students per my A2SV friends. In order to solve that and also make competitive programming easily accessible to everyone CodeLeague decided to host a competitive programming contest with amazing prizes 😁. Share this to anyone who is interested in competitive programming and also solve interesting problems.
