"I received an offer from Shakhtar. But I didn't know who 'Shakhtar' was. I didn't know where it was, what it was. I only knew it was a football club, nothing more. Well, I'm telling the truth. That's a fact. It was 2003. But I was in a difficult situation at home. There was the war, they stole our car, they bombed our house. We were living on credit, my agent, Štimac, was helping, but I wanted to provide for my family. The best offer was from Shakhtar, and I'm not going to hide that. At that time, it solved a lot for me, for me and my family. And I was very connected to my family then. My mother, my father, my brothers, now my wife, my children. That's sacred to me. I went there not for myself, but for them, to solve their life problems and so that they could live happily. After the war, after everything we went through, I told myself: 'I'm going, I'm going to fight.' I had it in my head: 'I'll go to Shakhtar, pl...

Evgeniy Khmara wears a bracelet.  Each link carries the name of a brother in arms who did not come back from this war.  He said nothing about it until I asked, over dinner in Kyiv this month, and only then explained what the links meant.  It is worth knowing what the new defense minister of Ukraine carries on his wrist into every meeting where the consequences for his country are decided.  Consider the split screen of the past week in Kyiv.  On August 18, Mykhailo Fedorov—the popular former defense minister whose dismissal in July set off the largest wartime protests since the summer of 2025—posted a video calling for Ukraine to find a way to hold elections during the war, the first such demand from a major political figure since the full-scale invasion began, and one widely read in Kyiv as laying the groundwork for a presidential campaign.  The next morning, Ukraine's Parliament confirmed Khmara as minister of defense by a constitutional majori...

Left - chronology of Russian strikes on Ukrainian warehouse infrastructure, starting from February 28, 2022.  The case is the chronology of Ukrainian attacks on Russian warehouse infrastructure.  Ukraine struck its first blow against Russian warehouses (Wildberries) on July 18, 2026.  By that time, Russia had been hammering Ukrainian warehouses with impunity for four and a half years.  Separately, pay attention to the Russian strikes since May 31 of this year - in just over a month, Russia has struck nine strikes against Ukrainian warehouses, that is, on average, they hit twice a week.  And only after a month with more continuous strikes, Ukraine finally hit the Wildberries for the first time.  Moreover, the list of Russian strikes here is far from complete - there was, for example, a strike on Ukrainian warehouses on May 24, which is not marked on the schedule.  In general, this is only a very small and very selective list of Russian strik...

“I send my best wishes to this wonderful country, full of hardworking and wonderful people,” said Mauricio Suleiman.

You don’t have to solve 100% problems to get good results Previously, anxiety was a big problem for me. I could spend almost an hour just thinking about how low my score was, how I couldn’t handle it. It prevented me from thinking about the problems normally and became a big obstacle. Regarding strategy, the advice I remembered the most was this: in IOI, if you look at the statistics of previous years’ results, stable, although not high, results on each problem often give a higher ranking in total. That is, for good results, it is not at all necessary to solve 100% problems; you can simply complete many relatively simple partial blocks. You should read each problem, think for three minutes, and immediately write code from everything you came up with. And then think for another ten minutes and write code again. And when this is done for all three problems, you already have a good understanding of what makes sense to work on next. But the anxiety did not let go.  I starte...

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced a meeting with former absolute world champion in three weight categories Terence Crawford (42-0, 31 KOs). “Today, the legendary American boxer Terence Crawford is in Ukraine. He has been supporting our country, our people since the first days of the war. We greatly appreciate the fact that such people are close to Ukrainians. As a sign of solidarity, Terence presented an American Pit Bull Terrier puppy, a girl named Freya. Her grandfather Athos survived the Russian occupation of Bucha, and now Freya is named after the future FREYJA air defense system as a symbol of our defense. Thank you for the meeting and this very warm and special gift. Thank you for your support and respect for our people,” Zelenskyy wrote. 38-year-old Terence is the first boxer in the era of four prestigious titles who managed to become the absolute champion in three different divisions.  The American announced his retirement in December of last ye...
