🇺🇿 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! 💪
