Recently, I sucked balls at a coding contest after my brain TLEd on simple DP, and lost my confidence. I went from a stellar 0.0000722% chance of beating the #1 rated player, Benq, to an abysmal 0.0000596% chance instead. Meanwhile, there are some people who can reach the absurd 0.0002% chance of beating Benq in a coding contest. While this is certainly an embarrassing display from myself, I intend to improve my abilities and someday reach that 0.0002% chance milestone of beating Benq in a coding contest. I did not terrible on the div 3 contest, so maybe I'll modify my brain with some improvements soon, or I'll simply buy the new and improved Brain Deluxe from China. If so, I will prove myself an elite programmer. Keep watch over me until then.

so close brother... you'll beat benq in no time.
How did you find the probabilities? Who are these 0.0002% people?
Its based on estimated win probability for people of different ratings, which to my knowledge is 1/(1+10^((rating1-rating2))/400)
the .0002% being special was just something arbitrary but also reasonable. It should be around low expert or high specialist. I didn't do any exact math to finder that number.
I got curious and checked mine too. With my glorious 1044 rating against Benq's 3857, my expected chance of beating him is approximately 0.00000928%. I guess I'll have to wait for the next Brain Deluxe update before I can even dream of joining the prestigious 0.0002% club.
Get a job sir
you forgot to censor j#b
true, nice for calling that out
Depends on if the sigmoid curve is actually correct :)
Sending strength during this difficult time
I'll find a fully lit end portal before you beat Benq
Actually,
Good luck on that lol
bro both of those are practically impossible
1 in 1 trillion as a decimal is 0.000000000001. 0.0000596% as a decimal is 0.000000596.
0.000000596 is larger that 0.000000000001.
This means that livenlife453 beating Benq in Codeforces is more probable than finding a fully lit end portal in Minecraft.
Alright I'll just use a seed finder
Alright livenlife453 could just use some "help"
Some
chatgpt pls solve this problem"help" still not gonna beat BenqHe seems legit btw
I'm just joking, I'm not saying that he used AI lol
This is what I hate about competitive programming. Even Curacao held a chance against best teams in the World Cup. But here, there is no room for surprises.
atleast its not chess where you're cooked if you didnt begin it in the womb
Don't worry, at least you're better than Benq, his chances of beating Benq is just 0%!
