Can you break down the data by country? You should also do an analysis on the average rating by country to see if a certain country's users have had their ratings rapidly increase recently with GPT

I'm interested

Mike is payed by OpenAI to farm training data off of us

kinda interesting how everyone had different opinions about the difficulty of the problems on that contest. like i think D >>> C and this C is just a regular C

I'm glad the div 1 people are finally feeling it. We need to force lazy Mike to add ID checks on this website

It would be so easy if Mike just adds an ID check but he doesn't care about cheatijg apparently

Ban ALL those shitty cheater CMs. Completely delete their account and shadow ban their IPs. MikeMirzayanov

for C you just had to do a simple reduction.

if there are consecutive 0's (empty pots), you can imagine there's a wall between them.

so 011001001 is equivalent to three separate problems that are easier to solve 0110, 010, and 01

now for each subproblem, you just check the number of zeros in chains of 0101010s. if its odd and none of the zeros is on a border, then its impossible.

339557173

Please hurry and ban them or I'm going to lose rating

remember when all the doubters were coping and saying its impossible or whatever? just wait until it replaces your job. you'll be even more surprised

It's probably just IQ + culture

No

I've been saying this for years. Just ban all Indians. Move them to CodeChef or something

India on the bottom for everything again lul

How do you rigorously prove all your problems? Especially greedy problems?

gimme give a hint for E plz

funny to think Mike will ever add any useful feature to prevent cheating

Are you a woman or a man?

Downvoted

he cooked you

in 5 years, they'll bring the cost down to $10

thank you. im sick of the discrimination against us

maybe "Grand Champion" :o

no one is being sacrificed. im saying if 50% of indian users cheat, and 2% of American users cheat, then just use American users as a baseline to calculate rating changes for everyone. everyone wins

the majority of cheaters are indian. no one claimed all cheaters are indian

Plz add a feature where the UI looks like c2 ladder UI

If you can give everyone the same piece then (n * 2^k = 0) mod m, or n * 2^k = q * m. You can factor out gcd(n, m) to get

a * 2^k = q * b, where a = n / gcd(n, m) and b = m / gcd(n, m).

Now if b is a power of 2, then q = a and 2^k = b satisfies the equation. But if b is not a power of 2, then b has some additional factor(s) that is not found in a (because a is coprime to b) and 2^k (since b is not a power of 2).

Also https://youtu.be/UvnVghpIjwk?si=rmsoD_dtVNUFOtLx&t=668

can you change the ui? it looks really bad

hope everyone negative Δ!!

Sir plz fix the website

Don't search up the original topic of the post and I'm just answering it for you but you're getting mad. Don't search up why you're getting mad

Don't search up the number of Indians that pooped their pants in the JEE advanced because they think a hard standardized exam has anything to do with the average population's intelligence. Also don't search up average Indian IQ

Don't search up who actually innovated, founded those companies, and owns the stocks. Also don't search up average Indian IQ

Don't search up average Indian IQ

US population / UK population = 332 / 67 = 5

US active participants / UK active participants = 612 / 93 = 6.6

US total participants / UK total participants = 2889 / 459 = 6.3

legends in the author's statements, why????????????????????????????????????????

I can't understand Div2D2 solution. Can someone explain plz?

hahaha when i saw this blog i knew he is a dirty, lying cheater. may the Lord smite you karimiah86

Wish getting negative delta and get back to green :)

Can I get a 10 minute head start on this contest so I have a better chance to get specialist?

I kept track of L = current length of the array, A = the maximum possible number of sorted elements, B = minimum possible number of sorted elements. If B == L, then 0 is impossible. if A < L, 1 is impossible.

Get ready for the worst implementation problems like always

Anybody else think Vika is an greedy, picky h*e on that carpet problem?

As one climbs the lofty tower in the realm of sports programming, the unwashed masses are winnowed, and often, left to the hinterlands (such as yourself). "To spend too much time in studies is sloth; to use them too much for ornament is affectation; to make judgment wholly by their rules is the humor of a scholar... Crafty men condemn studies, simple men admire them, and wise men use them; for they teach not their own use; but that is a wisdom without them, and above them, won by observation" [1]. So learn in a balance between practice and theory.

However, for the case of you, your decadence is natural; your zenith has been met. You will be met with da capo strife and wistfulness. So my advice is to depart from your undue career in CP. Thank you.

thanks for honest feedback

im angry

I will drunk drive if I don't get positive rating in this round

he's just trying to motivate u lil bro. also what's up with ur pfp it's kinda sus ngl

skipped where boyo?

no cheater round cool

To add some motivation, if you don't achieve your stated goals, I will jump off a 8 story building in 3 months.

Our brains didn't evolve to do CP problems. I think it might be time for all of us to give up :(

liberals love "advanced" (deceptive & opaque) algorithms that filters things they don't like huh. yea im not with u

whats ur favorite math topic? (not cp)

Imagine being so soft that you write a blog with more than 5 paragraphs to berate a cute anime girl calling someone retarded

My mom dropped me on the ground when I was an infant. We went to a licensed psychologist to get my IQ tested. I got a score of 79, yet I'm still doing CP. Never stop doing CP guys. Never give up.

What the hell

Nobody mentioned Bocchi the Rock?!

What do u mean by putting them in a vector space? How do you define scalar multiplication in a vector space of solutions??

Nice blog. Downvoted

How to solve div 2 C?

I used binary search for A and it worked. Have no idea how to solve it normally though...

same. cant wait to demote to newbie bro

Rooms should be assigned by nationality

It was funny bro. The downvoters just hate the truth

Why do you liberals loooovvee moderation and censorship?

What algorithms should I practice as a grandmaster? (Im also writing on an alt for privacy)

If you're newbie/pupil, impossible. You're either born pupil, specialist, or expert

So you actually need a lot of math to solve problems like 1787C - Remove the Bracket? Wow

Do the contest under your bed sheets and pretend to be asleep when she comes in. Also crazy how your mom doesn't want you to do Codeforces contest. It's not even a video game...

Problem setters should Google their own problem to make sure it's not super easy to just copy and paste from an online resource bc it's not fair if people who Google beat people who want to do it on their own

How did you get to E as a specialist? I only solved ABC

Where do you learn things like a+b = a^b + 2*(a&b)? I never seen it in my life

Wow how hard is it to get plat O_O. ur CM...

Ooh thanks

Why did 189996915 not pass? I thought since ind and fac[n] are modded M already, ind, fac[n] <= 1e9+6. and (1e9+6)^2 <= max ll??

I have a bad feeling about this round

1. Fortnite x Codeforces collab (insider information)

within cells interlinked

People hate newbie's opinions, even if correct

Why can't cheaters cheat on D?

ari gato

URM and women having a large advantage is just true. Why is it that every time this is brought up, people try to divert it into another topic?

Trust the plan brother. Trust the plan

testing testing

Yeah I got a TLE bc of this today

i didn't see it and failed to solve A. how did u realize this observation?

No. How about annihilation of Israel and NATO?

Thanks. It got accepted after changing st and another thing

For D: https://codeforces.me/contest/1779/submission/187833014 What is the time complexity of this? Shouldn't it pass?

I was literally only seconds late from finishing C. Fuck this shit!!!

I downvoted because you're grey and a candidate master such as myself has no time for your silly blogs

Messi is gonna lose and cry

Sorry I misclicked

1771C - Hossam and Trainees made the year.

Please evaluate my account for cheating.

Thanks.

Current rating [1197] Problems solved [39] I want to reach specialist!

I hate my life

I participated and I'm not even a woman ( ◡‿◡ *).

Damn the problem ratings are so inflated
