...One day I started watching a pornographic film. I was interested in the plot: a mathematics teacher and her pupil. The film started with a conflict: the teacher was swearing that the student couldn't learn to solve equations. I wondered. What kind of equations are we talking about? At school they study linear and quadratic equations, then the actor was clearly too old for such a topic. Would he be solving a cubic equation, where you have to guess the natural root? Or an arbitrary third- or fourth-degree equation solved by Cardano's formulas? I didn't know the answer. What if it was about solvability in radicals of an arbitrary degree equation by constructing a Galois group? But that would be too perfect. More likely - I estimated the most likely outcome - would be an equation with a parameter, from introductory mathematics at some shitty university. But the action continued. On the blackboard, the actress wrote a couple of linear equations. Linear! Linear, for fuck's sake! Equations of the first degree, studied in fifth or sixth grade. I couldn't help feeling that it was all a faux pas. Deeply annoyed, I turned off the film...

Above is the news, below as it was.

News at the top, news at the bottom as it were.

I drove around the barrier. Yeah.

The finals of the ICPC, the world's largest student sports programming competition, took place in St. Petersburg. For the second time in a row, it was won by the students of St. Petersburg University of Information Technologies, Mechanics and Optics (ITMO). All in all, in the third millennium, our teams became the world's best programmers eight times (seven times in St. Petersburg, one - in Saratov). The opponents complain: these Russians are too smart, they are not interesting.
