    Wow! We're so proud of our student Yididya from AddisCoder'24, a rising high school senior at Ambo University Special Secondary School. Less than a week after AddisCoder ended, she's starting a web dev internship. The youth are hungry for opportunities -- we love to see it!

    We have finalized our list of lecturers + teaching assistants for AddisCoder 2023! We received 219 TA applications for 21 positions. Sadly, this meant we had to turn away offers to help from >90% of applicants, many of whom were highly qualified. On the positive side ... 1/
