What does that even mean? What is a "top programmer"? I suppose those competitions are about clever algorithms (Olympiads) and assembly languages (demo scene, CTF,...)?

Or are there new contests I don't know about? Like "Best framework designer", "Best refactorer", or my favorite: "Best porter of old fortran code to Rust".
