Sopel, have you reached out to CCRL to see if they would like to rate your engine? I would be excited to see it at the top of the list! Likewise perhaps CCC and TCEC could be notified. It would not be unprecedented afterall.
I'm boycotting CCRL as they still have not put FF2 in the Stockfish family. I have no intention on talking to anyone from CCRL until that happens.
TCEC knows, if they want to run a bonus with this it would be cool, but I won't ask them to.

Maybe you copied your stockfish commits from someone else too?
I will look into that.

So let me get this straight, any word that is picked up by it's slang definition should now be banned because some might find it offensive. This is how people give up their freedom inch by inch. Once you give it up, you will never get it back without a fight.
I am really surprised by this opinion.
I leave it to your imagination to make up an offensive engine name which contains "niger". After all, you can always claim that you just meant the latin word for "black".
You shouldn't be surprised.
Too many Americans go on about their rights, without taking due care about the responsibilities that come with those rights.
I asked my wife, she found it offensive.
Then I explained the background, she said, ok, humor.
Then I asked, how would women feel in general, she said offensive.
I agree with her.
90% of coding is debugging, the other 10% is writing bugs.

The word 'nigger' does not offend me, as the saying goes 'Sticks and Stones may Break my Bones but Names' will never hurt me.

Nowadays, using the 'n' word is considered hate speech here, and would lead to serious repercussions.

Well Ted, I've always said that one should judge others on their character and integrity, not their skin colour.
