The word used in the original comment was "revolutionized" and in reference to "the market", not "innovative" and not in reference to product functionality.

Wasn't it more about inconsistencies in JS though? For stuff which didn't need JS at all, there also shouldn't be much need for JQuery.

I don't see what that does. The AI hardly cares about it's reputation and I also can't really blame the AI when my boss or a customer asks me why something failed, so what does committing under its name do? I'm ultimatel

Interesting, as a German (which also has a similar system), I am the complete opposite, I find it super irritating when people address me by my last name. And the worst part is having to figure out how to address others, especially people y

As far as I understand, they would primarily be in the same peer group as all other people with their Korean age.

The way the conversion is done here, different sudokus produce different graphs. Besides the regular sudoku graph structure, there are nine additional nodes, each corresponding to one number. They are all connected to each other to ensure t

I mean, you might still be right but I'd rather suspect that they didn't consider somebody running SQLite over S3 with 100ms latency ... Presumably, it is faster on a saner filesystem.

You can also install rustup via your package manager and then use it as usual to manage your Rust installations. Though I guess in most cases, a single moderately recent Rust installation works just fine. But it's useful if you want&#x

Why would that make the setup harder? If they provide a statically-linked executable, you can just download and run it, without even the need to install jq or anything else. It's not like they'd provide Go code and ask you to comp

Try giving a random human 30 chess moves and ask them to make a non-terrible legal move. Average humans even quite often try to make illegal moves when clearly seeing the board before them. There are even plenty of cases where people report

1750 elo is extremely far from beginner chess. The random mover bot on Lichess has like 700 rating. And the article does show various graphs of the badly playing models which will hardly play worse than random but are clearly far below the

From what I remember, one of the main reason also was to avoid bloating the JS on the game page. That page is kept especially slim to maximize performance and load times for low-powered devices.

Redid runs on the main server, where lila runs, as indicated in the diagram you linked. And moves are buffered in lila. Redis is only used for pub-sub.

This is a joke that's actually built into Python. The __future__ module is where you can import/enable features that will become the default in future versions. The point it makes by giving "SyntaxError: Not a chance" is

That still doesn't mean you spend zero on average. I assume pretty much all your clothes are less than ten years old. To have a 3.5€/year average, all the clothes you own would need to have costed at most 35€ total, which is clear

You can judge the quality of a contribution by looking at the code. Who wrote it is completely irrelevant. The trust in the Linux kernel never came from knowing the names of all the people that contributed to it.

https://github.com/lakinwecker/irwin has more recent commits and I think is what actually runs on Lichess, or at least close to it. Not sure much fundamentally changed though. This isn't "the whole of Lichess

This isn't the repository which runs on Lichess. The actual one does have much newer commits. Though not sure much fundamentally changed. Ultimately, I guess it does what it's supposed to do (catch obvious cheaters to save human t

There is only one server. Or well, there are lots of servers that make up Lichess but they mostly do different stuff. There is only one main server which handles all the core stuff including games. Also, restarts usually aren't daily.
