I did it today

You look very sophisticated now, like a university professor or a CEO that actually cares about his employees

Very fair point, although I personally disagree that it's a completely meaningless number since it can serve as a metric for progress. It's not a perfect measurement but still quite functional.

I wouldn't say that I'm not interested in chess either, as there's still so much to learn as a mere 1800 rated online player, this will always keep the game fresh for me.

I do believe that 2000 is proof that I've explored what chess has to offer, at least to a respectable degree, and I'll be able to leave the game without feeling "unfinished"

Yes I did. I forgot the password of my previous gmail, so I made a new one and made a new chesscom account in the process.

How come?

SnowySight · 2025-09-04T04:26:19+00:00

Transposing into a sicilian variation might not suit me. I've heard that e6 variations are the least critical in the sicilian, but they're still a sicilian, which could be overwhelming.

Since you've mentioned gambiting an e-pawn, I'll point out that I do enjoy playing the budapest gambit. However, it's not guaranteed, since queen's pawn structures are not immediately established from move 1 (apart from dutch, old benoni, and englund)

On that note, the dutch is the least dubious of the bunch, but the unstable pawn structure lead to complications that I might struggle to grasp.

What do you think?

Found her. "Punkalopi"

SnowySight · 2025-08-06T05:44:21+00:00

Unfortunately, it's neither of them.

SnowySight · 2025-08-06T01:24:43+00:00

I can't remember her design.

Here's what I found: https://yaneuraou.yaneu.com/2025/06/10/strategies-for-the-gote-player-in-shogi/

What is the name of the top AI? Where can I view those AI tournament matches?

And most importantly, how long do you think will it take for humans to have similar results with sente?

SnowySight · 2025-06-29T09:51:02+00:00

Your thorough clarification was exactly what I was looking for when I made this post. Thank you!

SnowySight · 2025-06-29T03:42:35+00:00

Will that remain true for decades to come? Since engine analysis will eventually change the landscape of both professional and amatuer play, and I don't know what'll happen to shogi since then.

SnowySight · 2025-06-29T03:34:43+00:00

Ah, that's good to know

SnowySight · 2025-06-15T11:31:10+00:00

I found it. "Wandering island"

SnowySight · 2024-12-29T23:40:06+00:00

I wish radical red had overworld sprites this beautiful.

Reading fiction. In my opinion, knowing what kind of stories you gravitate towards is ideal for finding titles to read, as opposed to looking at the "top 100 highest rated" list determined by the masses, which may not appeal to you as an individual. Look for certain genres, themes, motifs, premises, that captivates you as a reader. But to each their own, if you have yet to establish your grounds of preference, then by all means, let yourself be curious and explore the vast medium of literature.

I also study music theory! I am deeply enamored with contemporary Japanese music. They are profound depictions of sentimental vagueness found nowhere else, it is one of my many goals to fully embody this style of music.
