38-Xalqaro informatika olimpiadasi — IOI 2026 ochilish marosimi https://www.youtube.com/live/ArDnzvUIJe4

🇺🇿 The 2026 International Olympiad in Informatics starts today in Tashkent. 🏆 The IOI is the ultimate coding competition for high-school students. Years ago, many members of the Telegram team won medals there. 🤝 To support the best young programmers in the world, Telegram will award the 235 winners exclusive digital collectibles — Algorithm Cups — worth at least $117,000 in total. 🕌 It’s fitting that IOI is hosted in Uzbekistan — the homeland of Al-Khwarizmi, the father of algebra whose name became the word “algorithm." Let the best algorithm win! 💪

My job from a year ago has changed and two aspects of the change are hard on me. I think the concern is generalizable. 1. The state of flow is gone. The manual process of writing code used to be my main source of dopamine, for two decades. 99% of the time I was in the state of flow in my life was from coding (the other 1% being piano), and I didn't have it since December. This has impacted my mental health. I had similar symptoms when I left my job at Google to join Amazon as a Principal Engineer (PE) - the job has changed from mostly coding to mostly reviewing design decision and sitting in meetings. That was 5y ago and I've had the same feeling since February. 2. Massive context switching. In the past I'd work on the same thing for long stretches of time without context switching. Now most deep work is done by claudes and I review higher-level decisions, very similar to how a PE often spends all day in 30min meetings, but it's much worse now because I spend maybe 1-5min per discussion iteration per claude, so now I have to context-switch every 1-5min. The job has changed from working on the same thing for hours to a firehouse of unrelated information. This is pretty destructive for my ADHD brain. It took months to realize this side effect. My brain got hyper-optimized to a specific job for years, but now its priors/habits are suboptimal for the new job. This is not a fun side effect of progress and job transformation. I don't see any signs suggesting that the progress will slow down, so I suspect the job will transform again in a year. I expect a state of constant change, with accelerated pace. As I wrote before, the moat for an individual like you or me, becomes adaptability. I think the most adaptable fraction of the overall population is kids and young adults. The rate "oh, this is new to me" is highest in the childhood and goes down with age, and so does the need for adaptation, so it atrophies. If you are a student reading this, then somewhat paradoxically, I think you are in the best position, better than professionals with an asset baggage of experience whose value is dropping at an exponential pace. Don't get used to anything in particular. Stay mentally flexible, keep an open mind. Keep a few things constant for your sanity - in my case it is family, and in particular your shared dna is truly immutable. Accept that the horizon at which you are able to make accurate predictions about the future will keep shrinking, so don't waste your time on worry/anxiety about the future - your predictions will mostly likely turn out to be wrong and your worry about a particular version of the future you might have imagined will likely to end up being a waste of time and nerves. It's far more optimal focus on the present moment.

AI ishimni ancha osonlashtirdi, endi Full Stack Engineerman. 😁 Update: 1-monitor backend uchun 2-si frontend uchun shuni hazil sifatida rasmga oludim

Sizlardayam shunaqami?

Seagull architect: a high level IC position that comes in to your team, makes a lot of noise, sh*t everywhere and flies off taking any credit with them. We've all seen them: someone with a high pay and mandate without any responsibility, accountability or knowledge comes in to show off their existence and cause more damage than progress.

Be a better marketer than 99% of engineers. Be a better engineer than 99% of marketers. A good engineer can build anything but can't get anyone to use it. A good marketer can get people in the door but can't build anything worth staying for. But someone who can do both is when amazing things happen. And considering how few engineers have ever written a LinkedIn post, and how few marketers have ever done a Python tutorial... 99th percentile is much closer than it seems.

Qiziq narsa ekan. gitfut.com da o'z GitHub(FIFA) cardingizni toping va comments qismida share qiling. Coding bo'yicha jahon chempionatiga tarkibni hal qilib olaylik 😄

Yoshligimizda kasalliklar bilan ular haqida diktant yozib kurashganmiz maktabda, biz yozganlarimizni ko'rib gripp ham, boshqasi ham yaqinlashomagan umuman, immunitetimiz ancha kuchli bo'lgan. Hozirgila diktantla yozmayaptimi deyman, slabiy judayam.

Bizdayam meeting qo'yishdi, manimcha shu tema.

Dasturlashni yaqinda boshlagan yoki "juniorman, yana nimani o'rganay?" deb so'rayotganlarga maslahatim: Birinchi o'rinda Security (xavfsizlik) qismini o'rganing. Hozir ko'pchilik AI orqali tezkor kod yozib, xavfsizlik tomonini unutib qoldiryapti. Shuning uchun yaqin kelajakda bu soha vakillariga ish ko'payadi deb o'ylayman. Yaratgan loyihangiz qanchalik zo'r bo'lmasin, agar u xavfsiz bo'lmasa, hech kim undan foydalanmaydi — kamida to'g'ri maqsadda. Stripe injinerlari aytganidek: "Better to be down than insecure." (Xavfsiz bo'lmagandan ko'ra, tizimning vaqtincha ishlamay turgani yaxshiroq).
