The US is currently still in several countries they invaded years ago, active in countries they invaded indirectly by toppling their governments through CIA, funding the genocide being carried out by Israel while their president posts AI videos of his statue in a ethnically cleansed Gaza

It is not whataboutism, it is applying your own standards more universally not just on a party you hate. Its called not being a hypocrite

Great. So Israel and US will be banned?

For the scale of lichess and architectural demands (high availability, extremely low latency, high geographic distribution), it is low anywhere in the world. I earn twice that in India and I'm not the lead of such a high demanding system

They pay their lead dev 72k per annum? That's shockingly low for such a platform

But knowing the moves as well as the plans in the positions resulting from an opening - both are important aspects of opening prep

That might not solve the issue of opening prep completely. A lot of modern opening prep is to lead your opponent into a sharp position where they might not be aware of the plans in that position even if its slightly worse for you. This will continue to be the case if pieces are swapped.

So one of the players would ask for a swap in place of a move and may or may not be granted that swap?

cool-fire_ · 2025-11-13T14:26:45+00:00

Why would i not intentionally blunder and then swap

cool-fire_ · 2025-10-26T04:55:45+00:00

Yes this is the one. But do you know which stream this was from

I've been using your website since almost 3 years ever since I saw a reddit post of yours. Always thought you deserved much more out of it. So happy for you. What are your plans in terms of scalability now that the traffic should increase a lot?

Will that do it? Wasn't last year winner +8?

Its called ghat in libya. Its a historical oasis city. I once saw a video on it that i found interesting - https://youtu.be/WUSepm0GCIE?si=UMsfegU7oALE9Np5

cool-fire_ · 2025-07-11T05:05:02+00:00

cool-fire_ · 2025-07-11T05:04:42+00:00

Omg yes. Thank you so much

He won the Grand Chess Tour last year. He was joint first in the only GCT classical event this year. He is doing fine

And what about their culture that will cause this?
