• How I hacked chess.com with a rookie exploit

  Https://lichess.org/ The best I’ve found. It’s also crowd funded and they talk about their interest tech as well. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• So bad at chess that it’s genuinely upsetting at this point, I need some hope

  If you want to improve make it your goal to play the best chess you can, not increase an arbitrary number. Watch YouTube series like John Bartholomew's "Climb the Rating Ladder" for some general insight into what you might be doing wrong. Read Irving Chernev's "Logical Chess: Move By Move" to see the thinking process of high level players. Do lots of puzzles (I like lichess.org for puzzles). And always analyze... Source: 5 months ago

• which of these would you rather attempt for $1million?

  Play a bit against the Chess Engine https://stockfishchess.org/ if you want to get an idea about what an elite chess player can do. Source: 10 months ago

• The Q&A Megathread for new and beginner chess players

  So if you want to play against Stockfish, play against it. And in fact I would recommend not playing it on chess.com or Lichess with their artificial crippling levels. Download Stockfish, put it on a GUI and play it full strength and have fun getting utterly demolished. Source: about 1 year ago

• Is ChessBase really that necessary?

  For us mortals I suggest SCIDvsPC https://scidvspc.sourceforge.net/ and CaissaBase http://caissabase.co.uk/ (4.8million games) then add Stockfish https://stockfishchess.org/ for analysis. Source: about 1 year ago

• Any good chess programs

  Just to analyze positions in general, you can use the analysis boards on websites, and I'd recommend also having an offline chess GUI running Stockfish. You can sometimes go deeper and fiddle with more things. My recommendations are Scid vs. PC or PyChess. You would need to download Stockfish too, as the built-in ones are a bit oudated.
