Habit

I'm starting to establish a habit of video streaming when I work on competitive programming problems.

The stream can be found on twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/eigenfunk

What to expect

Look at my rating stats. :-)

I entered code forces as an "specialist" and seriously thought: Piece of cake, couple of weeks and I'll be in the red zone! :sunglasses:

Turns out I'm not (-:

What realy to expect

So it is obvious, that there will be no bleeding edge educational best practice competition deciding content there.

Rather you will see me struggle with the given problems. Sometimes I succeed, sometimes I don't.

Maybe that is closer to your situation, so the biggest benefit for you might be seeing that you are not alone, there are others struggling too.

Or maybe it is relieving to you, that you don't have to embarrass yourself, because somebody is already doing that for you. (-:

See you there.

Next attempt

Just so you know, livestreaming during the contest period counts as sharing code and is against the rules.

Livestreaming yourself solving a contest is strictly against the contest rules:

https://codeforces.net/blog/entry/4088

The contestants are forbidden to talk about subjects, related to the problems, with anybody, including other contestants. It is only allowed to ask questions to the jury via the system (see the 'Questions' section).

It is great that you want to produce content for competitive programming, but please prerecord yourself doing the contest and upload after instead of live-streaming. Or you can live-stream a virtual contest.

    Got it. Excuse my boldness, or rather, my stupidness.
