International Olympiad winners often go on to start world-changing things. OpenAI, Two Sigma, Telegram, Databricks, Perplexity, Devin, Ethereum, Udemy and even Python! You'll recognize some heavy hitters on the list. Nikolai Durov may be the most decorated of then all.

Several hundred family members killed by Israeli bombs in Gaza just from within who I know in our local Bay Area community alone. Many if not most of the deceased being Palestinian children. One individual expressed how blessed he was to “only” lose 4 ppl from his family so far.
