Nim should organize code competition as other programming languages do.

Programming languages unfortunately lack the sentience to organize coding competitions. Maybe you'd be willing to organize one?

I think we need more language-agnostic code competitions.

I think we need nim adoption as viable language submissions in larger competitions like the google ones

People should walk the talk and submit Nim code to the various Github language shootout repos or create their own.

Sometimes code competitions are stdlib only, then stuff missing in stdlib, like BigInt or Int128, chained comparisons, RBT, etc

But then C, C++ and Rust can't participate either no?

Most competitions are built so that you don't need integers of more than 64 bits.

I dont think Rust is trendy in competitive programming tho...
