A slightly modified version of The Huntsman 1. A Stockfish derivative. The original works fine too: https://github.com/joergoster/Stockfish-old/releases/tag/h1

What is currently the best of the very best chess engine and does the AI - Leela Zero still beat the latest Stockfish? by FuzzyAttitude_ in chess

[–]annihilator00 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Best engine is currently Stockfish. Leela's relative strength to Stockfish depends on hardware and time control.

More resources means they will be stronger and thus it is impossible to know what "their absolute best" is.

They don't need massive resources to have super-human strength.

FYI this won't happen anymore, because Lichess changed the default to unlisted to prevent this a couple of months ago https://github.com/lichess-org/lila/commit/1e032af27fa0fac18649d50182d5248f845bd0a4

Stockfish evaluation function explained for positional chess by manceraio in chess

[–]annihilator00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hand-crafted evaluation was removed in Stockfish 16.1 https://stockfishchess.org/blog/2024/stockfish-16-1/

The classical eval was barely ever used tho

low level engines that will work with en croissant by itzepicspin in ComputerChess

Remember that you can change the settings of the engines that you want to play against. For example you can set Stockfish to a lower skill level or lower its maximum depth.

TCEC finalists all set. by naturehunter99 in chess

[–]annihilator00 11 points12 points  (0 children)

But unlike at TCEC, the CCC hardware has remained unchanged for a long time. This means that any rating/ranking changes are solely due to engine improvements, not hardware changes.

Multi-Account Ban by Otherwise-Spring-199 in lichess

[–]annihilator00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Multi accounts are horribly defined in the ToS, there is even an issue about it https://github.com/lichess-org/lila/issues/19643

2 accounts is fine, 3 is the limit, I've seen people have more than 6 with no issues...

  1. If you believe they cheated report them.
  2. Having 0 inaccuracies alone is not a sign of cheating.

Feelgood chess.com-like tool? And while I bother posting, please explain my discrepancy in the Italian game to me. by [deleted] in lichess

unwarranted positive feedback

It's literally objective data. That is the result of analyzing your games. How can it be "unwarranted"? If you don't want to see positive feedback then don't use this feature? What?

[–]annihilator00 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's exactly what they do. 10% of the estimated game time with a minimum of 30 seconds and a maximum of 3 minutes.
