And so the story goes....

I wonder who's the next author of a superior chess engine that will be accused of stealing source code of Rybka being directly,by stealing the source code from Vasik's desk while he's in the bathroom,or indirectly,by copying ideas from a cloned engine who's author has stolen Rybka's source code while Vasik was taking a shower in the bathroom :lol:

It's about time Vasik and the people around him stop making a mockery out of us....we are well educated and sane people for God's sake :!: :!:

I totaly agree....I am not taking their side in no way and I am not saying that they're as white as snow....but at least they don't point fingers like Vasik whenever a strong enough chess engine appears at the horizon....

All this for the title of the worlds number 1 chess program, sounds like the The Tortoise and the Hare race :lol:

The Tortoise and the Hare is a fable attributed to Aesop. The story concerns a hare who ridicules a slow-moving tortoise. In response, the tortoise challenges his swift mocker to a race. The hare soon leaves the tortoise far behind and, confident of winning, he decides to take a nap midway through the course. When he awakes, however, he finds that his competitor, crawling slowly but steadily, has already won the race.

Depends on who you ask whos the tortoise or hare will be in 2010 ;) :lol:

I will answer you with a little lecture....

There are two kinds of truth pal....There's the obvious truth.The sky is blue.The grass is green.
And then there is the Intangible.The one that requires one's faith to be true.Can't be conclusively proven or refuted.This is the truth of religion and conspiracy theories.
Now after this brief lecture,what kind of truth Vasik's is do you think :?:
Aa,aa,aa,don't rush to answer me as the whole community is watching and things are getting a little bit tight for Rybka and it's precious author lately....meaning if you have something to proove your statement,be my guest,otherwise I recommend to keep your silence....

But I'm color blind so what does that mean??

You'll find very few absolute truths in your life, perhaps the constancy of c, after all, the speed of light can be measured to be "the same" by both Muslims and Christians.

FWIW I'm pretty sure that Robbo* relies a lot on the Rybkas, I'm also pretty sure that whomever is behind Robbo* will exposed before too long, people just cannot keep secrets ;)[/quote]

Thanks for the informative link.For those that have not bothered to read it, it generally talks about Stockfish 1.6, not Robbo!Also there are rumours started by Vas followers that it also is based on the code of Rybka/Robbo?? To all these followers of Vas, there can only be one supreme being with the perfect creation and don't want to listen to any thing else.
Hey think about it, Stockfish is the product of 4 very clever chess programming experts.Does it not make sense that they can create such a strong engine?

3 very clever chess programming experts :D.

I agree. I wish people would stop thinking that every strong new engine that comes out is based on Rybka :roll:.
