I mean, if I visit a bar from time to time to have a drink and some talk with a human being, I cannot tell them that I'm programming a chess engine or they just get overly excited.

So I have to lie and tell them that I'm a singer in a band and that I'm also a really good surfer in order to get rid of them. Otherwise the girls clung to me and they want to know all the details about razoring or this new forward pruning technique.
Yeah, sometimes computer chess just sucks ...
