wait, people get addicted to chess?

(after reading on Lichess how to make oneself stop playing)

This conman has been caught false advertising.

Should we execute him?

why did it cross my mind that gofundme (and others like that) is a place for e-begging

it’s that time of year again

should I wear this again

I had an idea of a bot that sends hourly (or if not possible, daily) posts that people have submitted to the bot. (The bot never reuses the messages people submitted.) Kinda like a bulletin board that people queue to get their messages in.

Not sure where I would host it in since I have none of such currently, but it’s an interesting idea that I would like to use for my own ;)

Google made (showed) a bullet hell game and I didn’t even notice it

edit: the bullet hell is not as un-hell as I thought, also nice music

Imagine getting locked out on your own assignment repository (even when the deadline is still 24 hours later)

Not because I should, but because I can.

Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.

Do you want to use a reasonable library with its last commit being 6 years ago, or a bloated one with 8 hours?

someone on esolangs.org (apparently also called Gilbert) wants to make an esolang with me

uhhhhhhhhhh

chess learning progress:

• need to learn opening (currently it’s all over the place)

• middlegame and endgame should be improved (puzzle run went mostly OK)

  • had to remember pawns are sometimes useful

whatever

if I’m not losing I always get stalemate from some reason

(out of 2)

I want to participate on a contest to increase my student activity points. I had two choices:

• chess (registration currently open), in place, beginner is an overstatement

• typing (registration pending), walk ~30 min, could be improved

what should I choose
