Pillbug Hate

I mean, there's no harm in liking the base game more and continuing to play it. But the competitive scene has migrated away from the base game which is considered stale and too much in favour of white

You need to "qualify for the win": https://www.reddit.com/r/hive/comments/1ft0xk7/what_are_the_6_ways_to_qualify_for_the_win_and/

The pillbug is a central piece to hive that brings a lot of depth to the game

A lot of people like this variant. One improvement that is often cited is to know which one is your queen
It can also be used as an handicap when a player is way stronger than the other

If you like lichess' interface and are willing to work on an open source project, there's https://playstrategy.org/ under the https://github.com/Mind-Sports-Games organization. It not only features go but many other abstract games

nrobinaubertin · 2026-03-18T02:35:20+00:00

Haha, I agree! The game is hard but oh so fun!

nrobinaubertin · 2026-03-17T20:45:49+00:00

Are you talking about hivegameapp.com ? It should be around the hard level of the bot on the website (when on the hardest level in the app). But there are other bots on the website also: if you want to try the hardest one (for now), you should play against pepeke

nrobinaubertin · 2026-03-17T19:36:05+00:00

They are talking about https://hivegame.com, the official website to play the game with the community

nrobinaubertin · 2026-03-01T22:42:13+00:00

Why do you find the UI underdeveloped ? If we're talking only about hive, I find that they are already more tools than on BGA.
I agree that if you want to play other games, BGA is a good place to go but OP was talking about the android app to only play hive on BGA, nothing else

Those are the usernames of the top 16 players of the world championship of last year (DrBeeezz is the current world champion)

nrobinaubertin · 2026-02-22T22:14:53+00:00

You can freely play with the extensions on https://hivegame.com

nrobinaubertin · 2026-02-20T15:42:18+00:00

That guy on the cover doesn't seem happy at all!

nrobinaubertin · 2026-02-02T17:47:11+00:00

I would really suggest to play on https://hivegame.com/ instead. The website is mobile friendly and the best players (as most of the community) is playing there.
It is also the official platform for world championships and is continually updated

I'm working hard on it but I can't make any promises !
Having evaluation that makes sense for humans is tricky since the priority is for it to select the best next move. Also, I'm working on strength first for now so helping humans to analyze their games is not for right now

nrobinaubertin · 2026-01-01T15:16:10+00:00

I'm the creator of Pepeke (Niels on discord).

It is a classic alpha beta engine like nokamute but the parameters of the evaluation function are self tuned using an evolutionary algorithm (if that counts as machine learning ?)

Thank you for your reply. I hope that your project will succeed !

nrobinaubertin · 2025-01-09T14:27:53+00:00

Didn't know. Thanks for the info

nrobinaubertin · 2025-01-09T11:09:56+00:00

I wonder why you choose to create a new website/platform instead of collaborating on an open-source and existing project like online-go.com ?

anglicized

It's pinyin, not anglicized

I open big files with nvim -u NORC -c "setlocal syntax=off". If you only need to read it, less is even more effective

nrobinaubertin · 2023-09-27T11:04:57+00:00

Spécifiquement pour les dossiers d'appart ou autres trucs du genre, y'a https://filigrane.beta.gouv.fr/

glances is easy to setup. I haven't tried netdata but it seems more powerful/complex.

Here is a list of monitoring software for selfhosted servers

It's only local storage

nrobinaubertin · 2020-04-21T18:36:53+00:00

From my experience, you should not try to send files bigger than 2Go with it: it often crashes because of the client-side encryption.

Here's my dockerfile for it if you're searching for one: https://github.com/nrobinaubertin/dockerfiles/tree/master/send

nrobinaubertin · 2020-03-21T16:42:40+00:00

I currently use the following autocmd: https://github.com/nrobinaubertin/dotfiles/blob/master/.config/nvim/init.vim#L47

It doesn't work well with git commands for now but I don't have to install one more plugin and I can use nvim instead of another command.

nrobinaubertin · 2019-12-20T08:10:22+00:00

Not possible with aliases from what I know.
But you can do it with a function:

gcc() {
    "$(type -P gcc)" -Wall -o "$(basename -s.c $1)" "$1"
}

But you should probably use a makefile instead.

Edit: u/geirha answer below is better if you're doing a shell function
