Why Vasik Rajlich keep the silence?

Post by Sylwy »

Hi all !

Without a comparative analysis of Rybka's code and Strelka's code all these discussions are only speculations and malevolent comments.

1.Vas can send the very first Rybka's code to Bryan or/and Dann.Why not ?
2.Vas can tell us if he worked with Rybka code on a computer with internet connection.Why not ?
3.Vas can tell us if the Rybka's code was possessed by another person.Why not ?
4.If Vas knows something about another work-the presumtive root both for Rybka & Strelka-he can tell us.Why not ?

If Vasik Rajlich like the honestity and don't like to see this true circus around Srelka &Osipov he can speak & elucidates all immediate.WHY NOT ?

All the best,
Sylwy

This comes from the Rybka Forum:

Ok, obviously, the author deliberately did some things that will make us think that this is a Rybka clone.

I have no idea how it was done or why - maybe as a joke?! I don't know if it's legal, or even in fact what should be legal. And in fact I don't really care - this Rybka 1.0 is ancient. If somebody wants to have some fun with this version, knock yourself out :-)

Vas' comments on this are not essential. The computer chess community can find the answers to the most important questions by itself.

If I was the author of the strongest chess engine in the world, I would not send my code to anyone, no matter how trustworthy. This just won't happen, and it's totally unrealistic to expect Vas to do it.

Yes, it is. It is the strongest chess engine in the world, by a good margin.

1.To be the strongest chess program in world & a commercial one is not a refuge & excuse in honestity reasons !

2.Must we build a church (temple) for Rybka ??????

Vas is not the one who is potentially being dishonest here. He has nothing to prove or disprove "in honesty reasons"

If I was Vas I would closely guard his code and not release it to anyone. To expect him to do so is totally unrealistic.

While you're at it, how about asking Hiarcs and Shredder to release their code as well, so that it can be compared to Strelka ?

OK-but Vas can stop-very easy-this discussion!
I think a lot of revelations are in the source codes of some top engines !
