What is the power of prediction that the total TACTICS method gives you
?!
It's not that good, is it !? If you are a scientist how can you stand,
so firmly, behind a method which has such low level of "prediction" ...
the current state of the chess programs has very little scientific
value(for chess it self). It has much more comercial value !!!
"My" program is stronger than "his" hence I know better !!! Bull ...
nobody knows! Lets look at the facts, not with a microscope but with
some understanding to what these facts mean. The facts point out that
even if you manage to search 200 000 000 position per second you are
still not even close to get to the bottom of the problem! Deal with this
fact for a change!
