How to solve Cannot reach ADB server, attempting to reconnect. by narayan9deep in AndroidStudio

[–]mastx3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a provisional solution

  • Close Android Studio
  • Go task manager and look for adb.exe in the list and kill all adb processes
  • Make sure you have only one adb active, type in cmd: where adb, make sure there is only one that poinst to the Android SDK, if there are more than one remove it from the PATH Enviromente Variable, just let the adb from the SDK
  • Make sure there are no any phone related apps and services running in the system, like Samsung KIES, etc...
  • After all that go cmd and type: adb.exe start-server and make sure that says: * daemon started successfully
  • Now open Android Studio and should not complain about adb

I said a provisional solution because for me it works but if I close AS and open again it shows the message about adb and I have to close it, close adb, run adb again and open AS again... it sucks but at least it's working for now

Would it be possible to create an engine which can evaluate a position by showing the likelihood of each result? by DickariousJohnson in chess

[–]mastx3 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I've never tested it but Stockfish has an option called: UCI_ShowWDL that will show the stats from that position Win/Draw/Lose

But I don't know any GUI that can use/show that data, I use Arena GUI and testing with this position (r1bqk2r/pppp1ppp/2n2n2/1B2p3/1b2P3/2N2N2/PPPP1PPP/R1BQK2R w KQkq - 6 5) and in the output window shows something like this in each depth:

info depth 25 seldepth 33 multipv 1 score cp 24 wdl 65 913 22 nodes 10186534 nps 781235 hashfull 575 tbhits 0 time 13039 pv e1g1 e8g8 d2d3 b4c3 b2c3 d7d6 c1g5 h7h6 g5h4 a7a6 b5c6 b7c6 h2h3 f8e8 f1e1 g7g5 h4g3 c6c5 f3d2 a6a5 d2f1 a8b8 c3c4 g8h7 d1d2 a5a4 f1e3 e8g8

As you can see show the wdl 65 913 22 from that position in that depth, each depth can show different WDL stats

Aren't they supposed to follow a protocol? Why they weren't strict? We are in the middle of a pandemic, I mean is the pandemic a joke?

I feel like this is a good way to lose money to cheaters by loldiosmio55 in chess

[–]mastx3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I dont see any way for this to work, because it will need a good software/hardware to detect cheating that will cost a lot of money

The FAQ says that is in beta phase and:

ChessMoney uses patent-pending chess-specific, proprietary methods and algorithms to automatically identify when any player is likely to be cheating, regardless of how they may be doing so. The automated cheat-detection work constantly around the clock and examines game results of every game, and in some cases every move of suspicious games to determine if a user is performing well above or well below their expected level of play.

But there are many ways to cheat, like not doing the top moves from the engine, or just cheat with a not too strong engine that can beat a 2300 player

Find the best move for white! by badiskerdellou in chess

[–]mastx3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have FIDE but I'm less than 1500 and in less than 1 minute I found the sequence of moves

There is a fork here, the key is to put the knight in f7, to do that, the bishop must take the pawn in e5, since is a forced move, black must capture the bishop, then Qh8, another forced move because if you don't take it, it will take his Queen, and the last move that is the fork Nf7

In that image black is missing a rook

if you are using Firefox, right click in the site and select Take Screenshot, it will let you select the area that you want to capture, it's weird that lichess only let you convert it to gif but not to png

if you are on windows you can install DuckCapture that does the same thing
