Just moved on :) When you have 4 kids, there is not much time left for competitive programming (even though I really loved it). But the things I learned during my competitive years proved to be invaluable in my professional career. So keep grinding guys :)

      1. fell in love with programming as a craft. I just genuinely enjoy the process.
      2. gained attention for detail. Because in competition, even the smallest mistake means 0 points.
      3. developed an intuitive sense of the complexity of problems. Because there is only a fine line between practically solvable and unsolvable.
      4. learned to read and find mistakes in other people's code. Invaluable for code reviews.

      and many more :)
