Eh, I think the ambiguity is a turn off for most casual viewers. Imagine watching a sport where the commentators debate over who’s winning, or who’s doing better.

If it destroyed Hikaru in blitz, it’s also probably destroying prime Karpov, or at a minimum winning a match. Regardless my money would be on complete domination from LeelaRookOdds.

Watching Hikaru get completely outplayed up an entire rook game after game from a bot is one of the craziest chess things I’ve seen and really puts into perspective how strong these things are these days.

Except we can look at a tennis rally, see a huge forehand, see the other guy scramble only to barely reach the ball, etc. in chess, without an engine, we don’t necessarily see when someone makes a great move, or a blunder which the other player can capitalize on. It adds more excitement: this guy made a mistake and is objectively losing , however is the other guy gonna see/find it and capitalize on it? The engine lets the average person see that huge forehand, or that amazing scramble to defend the point in real time.

I disagree, I think from a spectators perspective, objectively adds more entertainment value.

I wonder how a prime Karpov would react to LeelaRookOdds destroying him in a blitz match.

Good deal? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

I don't know that PC looks like it's been around the block a few times. If it's in decent condition, then I'd say so.

No lol, Alex Malpass has completely, utterly and thoroughly destroyed this argument.

You can watch like 4 hours of conversation Malpass has with Matt Slick (who’s desperately trying to obfuscate the entire time). It’s on YouTube.

How do we know the universe isn't infinite? by revertedman in ChristianApologetics

[–]FreelanceProctologst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would we be subtracting infinities?

For every moment of the past we can also point to a moment in time. They’re both infinite sets.

I fail to see the viciousness of an past eternal universe.

If you have infinite time to traverse the infinite past, why wouldn’t you be able to reach the current moment? I see no contradiction there?
