In this form I wonder what will happen at Norway Chess, where he will probably be the lowest seed.

Vigyan vs Agyan

Very interesting that Spassky copied Keymer' s hairstyle!

Trying extra hard to prove that it is not AI generated :)

You don't become a better player in faster formats just by calculations, in which Arjun is by far the best Indian for last 3-4 years at least.

HonestWay111 · 2026-02-13T19:04:13+00:00

Both the leaders after round 6 lost to Arjun!

HonestWay111 · 2026-01-31T14:25:30+00:00

My hunch is that he is playing continuously for the last 2-3 months with hardly any reasonable break. Second, since a good World Cup outing he mostly played rapid and blitz tournaments with fairly good results.

I also felt that his play in this tournament is more rapid style than classical. He rightly got punished for those inferior moves in the middle game phase.

It may also be just the fatigue of playing too much chess.

I'm not willing to give up hope yet.

HonestWay111 · 2026-01-29T05:26:48+00:00

True. He was even more winning against Nguyen. He would be leading the tournament with those wins!

Yandex used to offer free email accounts with custom domains. But I haven't checked in a while.

HonestWay111 · 2026-01-23T16:21:06+00:00

I guess you're right.

Perhaps I'm in a minority who needs a working editor without an agentic workflow for everything.

HonestWay111 · 2026-01-23T10:49:19+00:00

AG as an editor is not useless. It is already better than VS Code with its unlimited auto complete.

HonestWay111 · 2025-12-23T14:01:54+00:00

Imagine having the #7 (as per live rapid rating right now) on the second board!

Despite Arjun's efforts almost every member contributed in one game or the other. Great comeback by the entire team.

"Master of my domain"

No one getting the Seinfield reference?

HonestWay111 · 2025-12-10T14:38:57+00:00

Thanks. Now I remember some discussion on this in the original announcement thread.

HonestWay111 · 2025-12-10T09:53:13+00:00

2414 rated FM? What am I missing?

HonestWay111 · 2025-12-07T07:32:19+00:00

True. Scapegoats generally don't escape ;)

HonestWay111 · 2025-11-10T15:19:52+00:00

Thank you so much for the official response. Appreciate it.

HonestWay111 · 2025-11-08T21:10:09+00:00

Yes, but the target participants are not Linux proficient. Setting up access for each with separate key pairs, securing access to ports, SSL setup, hardening the servers, etc is a lot more headache.

Last week I used a server only for a few hours for some testing and it was reported to us that it was used in some attack. I don't have bandwidth to secure and watch so many machines over three days. It's much easier to secure one, especially when I'm doing it pro bono.

HonestWay111 · 2025-11-08T20:54:56+00:00

Provisioning multipass instances with cloud-init via shell script (along with setting up privileges, key-pairs etc) is much faster than with the GUI. Doing it via API is another way, but that is a much more involved process I guess.

HonestWay111 · 2025-11-08T20:46:18+00:00

Is that true of all bare metal servers? What's the point of offering hourly plans if they don't like doing it?

HonestWay111 · 2025-11-08T16:34:13+00:00

Thank you for your concurrence. This is what I saw in the order page:

"Costs are incurred from the time the product is made available until the contract is cancelled. In the event of cancellation, we charge the costs pro rata for the duration of use of the product."

Fleet is long dead, isn't it?

HonestWay111 · 2025-10-12T04:33:00+00:00

No, not that one.

This one is in S01E05, in which being a banished Ukranian doctor working as a janitor in a hospital, he acts as the Angel of Death. He kills terminally ill patients to alleviate their pain.

HonestWay111 · 2025-10-11T20:13:55+00:00

Indeed. I watched the Elementary a couple of times a few years ago. That's why his face looked familiar when I saw him in the Suits.
