Very off-topic, but recently there have been quite a few blogs from people who seem to have gotten burned out from cp/life in general, These are a couple of links to videos which I think might lift your mood. I'm not sure if this'll work as different people have different tastes, if you like my taste, I'll share more based on feedback.

Thank you for this. I am feeling very low today, as I could not even solve a single problem in Codevita :(
yeah enjoy man.
It was tough than usually it is.
Hey only 600 people solved one problem, 60 solved other and 6 third
Also questions did not have any good structure as well first question we were asked about the matrix and nobody could solve it? Has to be some mistake!
I discuss with many people after the contest. Most interesting of which is, the problems I had in my set, no one could solve(or maybe solved, though few). I had the questions-
Can you please tell me was this for the whole zone 2 or for one set,from were did you got this data. Also are you taking about fill the cube question(I was not able to find what was wrong in my approach)
Nice list! I'm a huge fan of Naval Ravikant — he's the modern day equivalent of Aristotle, with very practical advice.
I'd also suggest this: How I climbed a 3,000-foot vertical cliff -- without ropes
Yeah, I find Naval very smart and authentic. When listening to other people's advice, i try to avoid confirmation bias as much as possible. A lot of what this guy says seems too good to be true, but then he backs it up with very reasonable arguments. Also thanks for the suggestion.
Please add this under comedy
just watch some F.R.I.E.N.D.S episode...
Or just watch the big bang theory episodes.
Nice to see Where is my mind is on the list.
have you heard this version? i find the original one better tho
heard it now :), its a nice list you've here.
thanks man
It is kinda funny when Codeforces become LifeAdviceForces since Codeforces community is amazingly friendly.
Much needed !!
glad you liked it
thanks for this man, I was searching for it from last one year.
haha nice
I watch anime to get motivation. :)
what's your favorite?
One Piece
Maybe everyone can actually relate with Roronoa Zoro we all have seen him growing ..
He's my favorite character.
I also prefer him but i am a bit more emotionally attached to ACE .. xD ( P.S -- Luffy too, he kinda reminds me of Naruto sometimes :p )
Watch anything funny (friends or The big bang theory) . And just keep practicing.
You can add watching naruto to the list. Whenever I hear naruto saying "I am gonna be hokage one day", "I will never give up, this is my ninja way!", it motivates me to a different level altogether:)
it motivates me too
Damn! Seeing two shadow clones talking to each other is so funny!
His determination gives me chills sometimes , And also when the other one makes Rasengan and he simply waits ..it looks funny .. xD
"We have two lives, and the second begins when we realize we only have one." — Confucius
that is the best quote I've ever read.
yeah, that hits hard
I feel bad after seeing the list. please add this, what a wonderful world
Star-ing it for future....I somehow have this feeling that I will need it....lol
thanks a lot man for such a wonderful blog..
no problem man
In order to Feel Special, we must ask meaningful questions such as What is Love. Although this blog may help some people, it is missing a key element. TWICE is the most effective way to Cheer Up someone. I recommend adding some links to TWICE content as it will help More and More members of this community find their motivation.
TWICE orz
I need to bookmark this. Thanks bro!
enjoy
Upvoted and bookmarked! Really nice!
enjoy man
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrcquFOqD_4&t=11s Naruto, but but in russian
This list is awesome, DatteBayo
enjoy
I really have this question. why just twice?!!! there are a lot of great kpop songs!!!!!
I think that's because someone suggested it. I agree that there are better songs. He did include a version of Psycho by RV though.
yes there is a song from red velvet. but as you see there is a part for song and a different part for twice. he could put them at the song part! I'm not hater I'm just curious :)
it is under music, twice is not a different category, I was mentioning the name of the artist.
you are right I misunderstood. sorry!
there's red velvet too, feel free to share links.
at least put dynamite link too :). you know it's a summer song and will make you hype (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdZLi9oWNZg it's the link). and thanks for not putting blackpink ;)
I thought you weren't a hater but you hate BP xD
that is a exception. They are the only people I hate in the whole world. sorry for that.
Why so?
I have my own reason's. They are so many that I can't write it here and also a lot of people may disagree with me for my reasons but they were enough to make me hate them.
I have a strong feeling boy groups won't be appealing to most of the cf audience but I'm not sure.
then you can put dumdi dumdi by (g)i-dle and also helicopter by clc.
I prefer Hann and Latata.(Just an opinion)
Eight- By IU might be worth adding
they are also really good.
Add Apocalypse — Cigarettes After Sex
This can be added on the list: The Super Mario Effect — Tricking Your Brain into Learning More
Hey, I would like the author of this blog to mention an anime named "Kurokono Basket". It really will inspire anyone who is feeling low. Does anyone here watch it?
One of the best sports anime I ever watched :)
You can also add movies like The Imitation Game and A beautiful Mind to the list.
Elon Musk — Never give up You can add this too.
This is a Great Post.
I don't know if this will help anyone or not but I think reading books is really helpful.
Reading this book was a great experience for me.
This is just depressing...
For commedy I really enjoy Matt Parker (standupmaths) he makes maths related stand up comedy. It is really cool you can check out his youtube channel
ah yes, I've seen him show up on numberphile
The video is private.
