Any older people on here starting CP after college?

There are many young school-aged kids on here, which is fantastic and helps foster a real sense of community on the platform.

Given how important community is for discovering new ideas and just generally keeping yourself motivated, I'd like to use this post to find mine -- people that are post-college and just starting out with programming contests.

Maybe we can start a discord or something. It can get really isolating when you have no one to discuss problems with or get excited with about a contest.

Me! I started in my late 20s a few years after university. And I did not major/minor in math or computer science in university.
