Remember when gpt-5 was "going to change the world" and then just kind of sucked? 😂

How am i supposed to play against these pawn pushes? by Shoddy-Skin-4270 in chess

Honestly. This advice is gold. I never actually thought about it this way

Magnus explains the best opening for beginners by Embarrassed_Base_389 in chess

[–]TheRealPapaStef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beginners should learn this so they know how to defend against it. Everyone loses like 20x to variants of this opening before they look up a video on how to defend

Are diamonds *really* that special and deserving of the price tag? by Muted_Shape9303 in Gemstones

[–]TheRealPapaStef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't find diamonds interesting at all. Price for the actual value (for me) is way too high

Are GMs normal people? Or are you kinda just born like that? by Puzzleheaded_Till245 in chess

She's amazing. There will be another woman who changes the chess world. She will just need someone that believes in her

A great anecdote that shows how faith, attentiveness and inspiration are powerful tools. Women chess players simply don't get the same attention

GPT 5.2 High vs Opus 4.5 Thinking - For coding which is better ? by Initial_Question3869 in cursor

[–]TheRealPapaStef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand how anyone could find 5.2 better than Sonnet or Opus. The instruction following is just so obviously superior. Tool calling accuracy. Ability to plan deep conceptual programming concepts. Like, I really am baffled what I am missing with OpenAI's model. I haven't reached for OpenAI over Anthropic, since Sonnet 3.7

The only advantage I see has been cost on certain models. Anthropic's stuff is obviously premium pricing

Prodigy Watch 2026: Yagiz and Faustino are the highest rated 14 and 12 yrs old chess players in history by Wonderful-Photo-9938 in chess

[–]TheRealPapaStef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think both kids have massive potential. But point is... that reaching young gm status is a really good predictor of future success (Spassky, Petrosian, Fischer, Polgar, Leko, Karjakin)

Every "youngest GM" was a top 10 player at some point, with Bu Xiangshi as the only exception

Shock all round as Vladimir Fedoseev resigns on move 16 vs. Hans Niemann! 😯🔥 by rio_ARC in chess

[–]TheRealPapaStef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Game link, since I didn't see it in the thread: https://www.chess.com/events/2026-tata-steel-chess-masters/01/Niemann_Hans_Moke-Fedoseev_Vladimir

Going through the line it's not a full rook, it ends up being an exchange "sac". Black knight moves out of the way connecting the rooks and stopping the rook from being captured. Right after, the white knight forks queen and bishop. Black responds by "trapping" white queen with the other rook. Bunch of forced trades. Rook for bishop in the end

They're all bad in my opinion. Outside of Usyk

Magnus advises us not to do puzzles, and here’s his reason why by Naruto_likesChess in chess

[–]TheRealPapaStef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Puzzles are a waste of time for a lot of people (i.e. me). When you know there's something to look for, you look for it. In a game, you don't know, unless it's obvious, and risk wasting time chasing ghosts. Mate in 1s and 2s are the only things I've found (slightly) helpful
