☄️Something BIG is coming this summer. Time to sharpen your numerals! The ICFP Programming Contest 2020 will run from July 17 to July 20, starting at 13:00 UTC. The clock is ticking: countingdownto.com/?c=3009383
2020-05-20 22:00:01🧬It's hard to represent our DNA as bits and bytes but it's a task worth solving. Time to get acquainted! Please reply with a few bits of info about your history of participation in ICFP Programming Contests: country, years, teams, places, etc.
2020-05-22 18:00:00From Russia🇷🇺 with love🐻 This year’s ICFP Contest is brought by a team of seasoned participants. Some of us recall saving Endo in 2007! Notable places: 3rd in 2013 as Hack the Loop 7th in 2014 as Hack the Loop 7th in 2015 as Hack the Pool 6th in 2016 as kontur ru
2020-05-22 18:07:03As always, you can have up to 65 535 teammates! 😀 twitter.com/nya3jp/status/…
2020-06-24 17:13:44@icfpcontest2020 Hi, I have a quick question. Is there any limit to the size of a team?
2020-06-22 21:26:53We shall post some soon! And, um... have you deciphered the ones we've already posted here? 🤣 twitter.com/Elventiah/stat…
2020-06-24 17:17:16🎵 Come gather 'round people wherever you roam And admit that the waters around you have grown twitter.com/TomaszSkutnik/…
2020-06-24 17:24:38RT please, if you know somebody who's also looking for a team to participate in @icfpcontest2020 :)
2020-06-12 17:43:13In regard to teasers, we can neither confirm nor deny that we are doing something like Endo in 2007 twitter.com/Elventiah/stat…
2020-06-24 17:47:18@xoposhiy @i_komarov Что-то уже третий раз всплывают ДНК, Эндо и 2007-й. Если вы сделаете что-то подобное, я... я... даже не знаю что тогда!
2020-06-03 07:48:46It's time to reveal something about the contest (but not much): During the contest you'll have to write and submit a computer program in a language of your preference 😲 Please have a look at submission rules and check if your language is supported: github.com/icfpcontest202…
2020-06-30 00:54:14うーん ICFPC で Bazel 使うには前準備が必要そう github.com/icfpcontest202…
2020-06-30 15:33:37Bazel をインターネット接続なしで使うのはたぶん出来ると思うけど、ワークスペースのインポートができないので、ライブラリを使うのが面倒なことになりそう。
2020-06-30 15:59:17@nya3jp --distdirにダウンロードすべきものを用意しておくか、--repository_cacheでキャッシュしておけば大丈夫ですね
2020-06-30 16:30:54I've just contributed a Dockerfile to build solutions with Bazel. I verified it only with C++ programs so if anyone is going to use Bazel for other languages I recommend checking it out before the contest starts. #icfpcontest2020 github.com/icfpcontest202…
2020-06-30 23:15:30Need an employer approval? No worries! We've leveraged the power of open source and copy-posted the contest rules: icfpcontest2020.github.io/rules.html twitter.com/0leGG/status/1…
2020-07-01 20:05:16@icfpcontest2020 Hey folks, do you mind to post the rules upfront (I don't think it'll differ much from previous years)? Multiple folks, including my teammate, are blocked from participation so far without employer approval. github.com/icfpcontest202…
