This is the current Top 10 of Codeforces. Do you know what they all have in common? Almost every one of them started competitive programming in their early teens. Not to achieve an end goal, but for the joy of problem-solving. In India, programming is often tied to outcomes. Most students start in their second year of college and even when they do, it is rarely distraction-free. Mandatory attendance, rote learning for exams, assignments, and constant academic noise leave very little room for deep, focused thinking. We tried highlighting this gap in perspective and how we approach learning in our recent CP Digest blog I would highly recommend you give it a read here: tle-eliminators.com/cp-digest/cp-s…





Scoop: xAI staff had been using Anthropic’s models internally through Cursor—until Anthropic cut off the startup’s access this week. Here’s what xAI cofounder Tony Wu sent to staff on Wednesday according to a copy of the internal Slack message I viewed: “Hi team, I believe many of you have already discovered that anthropic models are not responding on cursor. According to cursor this is a new policy anthropic is enforcing for all its major competitors. This is a both bad and good news. We will get a hit on productivity, but it rly pushes us to develop our own coding product / models. We're at a time in which Al is now a critical technology for our own productivity. This coming year is rly going to be wildly exciting for all of us. The team is rapidly developing our own models / product. We will have something to share with everyone soon. In the meantime, you may still try all different kinds of models in grok build.” Anthropic declined to comment. A Cursor spokesperson directed me to Anthropic for comment. xAI did not respond to request for comment.

No joke, if Wayland wasn't consistently screwed over by upstream nonsense, Phoenix would not need to exist. Phoenix is an interesting project born from frustrations with a slow, voting-based development model. video by @BrodieOnLinux youtube.com/watch?v=NKPMDd…
