Better than gold 0 ▲ Shtetl-Optimized 34 minutes ago · Politics · hide · 0 comments What’s about the only thing more badass than a 17-year-old winning a gold medal at the International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI)? That 17-year-old intentionally forfeiting his gold medal by wearing an Israeli flag while the medal was announced, defying the IOI’s boycott of Israel. Kol HaKavod (mad respect) to Yotam Budnik, who incredibly, has also won a Gold Medal (which he was allowed to keep, apparently) at the International Math Olympiad. No comments yet.
