"everything looks great on your application, just one question - can you explain this period in 2025 where you were playing 200 - 400 bullet games a day?"
Work and play join forces!

In a world where LLM coding was actually a game changer, users would notice. They'd say "wow, has anyone noticed how useful, reliable and fast things are these days?
They'd aay it about websites, apps, windows, macOS...
They do not. Ergo: the princess is in another castle.
me: ok, one more 3 minute game on my phone before bed

"12...0-0 was not in my file!" says Nakamura, "and it was too difficult to find [13.Ne4!] over the board." Hikaru is unimpressed by the work done by his seconds, who he doesn't name but describes as "strong GMs"

why did you vibecode such a fucked up lookin board dude
Karpathy's Autoresearch pushed my vibecoded Rust chess engine AI from "expert" to a top 50 grandmaster, a #311 chess engine.
It ran over 70 experiments on its own and tried to hill climb to the top ELO score it could, landing at 2718!

chessbase mobile is literally just a browser pointed at chessbase urls. what's the point?

I think one of the more fascinating points about chess is that the new chess models aren’t just “better”.
They are so much better that if two chess AI were playing against each other and a human (any human), were to contribute a single move, at any point in the game, that would be enough to typically guarantee a loss.
the same is true with chess
Someone who picked up chess last year: against e4 I aim for the Sicilian taimanov bastrikov ponomariov gambit, but sometimes it isn't possible and I have to transpose to f4 lines
Person who played as a child: I think I play the caro-kann
> chess company or startup announce new chess platform/app, looking for devs
> promise performant application on mobile
> look at tech stack
> mobile stack is react native or flutter
every fucking time
every chess app is slow. Endgame, chesscom, chessever, even the new lichess app is react native or flutter slop. The last good chess mobile app was FollowChess. RIP King.
