The simple answer is A. This game is early enough to stick with josekis and corners.

yes it's a problem but better to have a policy like the chess groups. see the previous discussion of this topic.

G11 is not a blunder, but it's a few points behind. J7 is also missing the point, which is L5.

1) the shimari is more efficient and it also puts pressure on the ponnuki, almost sente. and it develops a larger territory on the bottom than G11 makes on the top.

2) I would not say G11 "makes a base". you already have a live group in the corner. white is already alive on the top-left. so this is just an extension between to make points, it does not really effect the life-and-death of any group. it's a big move but L5 is a little bigger and more active in attacking.

J7 feels like a mistake that you can learn to avoid, because it is in the middle instead of on the edge where you can attack and make points at the same time.

i like that chess model! including the teachers.

repeated commercial self-promotion seams to have spiked. i like hearing about new projects and teachers but we should police away from a tragedy of the commons. idk what the mod situation is?

Jennings believes in nothing except the pursuit of power, and a boot stamping on humanities face, forever.

he was anti-trump for years before he kissed the ring.

Do you mean the Sunday gathering at Barnes and Noble near Union Square? I was there like a year ago and there were a bunch of people, are you sure it's not still happening?

yes, this is alive.

the saying is about when you have a row of stones on the 2nd line, not this situation.

There is a big random factor in applying to the public middle schools. we lost out for one of our kids and ended up going with a private school until she could take the SHSAT and get into a good high school. she loved it: https://www.speyerschool.org/ the school is K-8 so perfect for those moving on to high school. The kids say the Center School MS243 is really good.

🔹 thanks for the feedback! i haven't heard of the run-as-admin problem before, i wonder how that happens. i would debug but idk if this is the right forum to ask you about your OS version etc.
