I am no programmer. I have to talk abstract when I talk about programming. > Saying >"use more knowledge" or "make your program search fewer nodes" >is not a very coherent plan, and reveals no insight whatsover.

There are no SOLUTIONS. You can only come nearer and closer to the point. We discuss. What do you want. That i talk in source-code with you about a weak-pawn ? > This makes it >appear that you are privy to a better way when in fact you are >not. I hope this is no problem for you. Or is it ? :-))) Of course you know it better , and YOU say it (was said towards pilatus). >But you have said nothing we do not already know. Aha- and therefore you don't talk about it. Instead you DEFINE chess as tactics. Or positional as inaccurate, unsave. > Stop attacking us as "materialists" which is >a gross overstatement of what we actually do.

If you talk in words to me, in language, like I do, you have to accept that I comment what you say. stop talking with me. Speak in source-code about your topics, and I will not talk with you, nor comment. Since I don't know about source-code. But if you talk in a human-language you have to accept that I talk, comment on you. If you cannot stand it - >In my opinion you have no special insights whatsoever on what >to do about the problems of computer chess. But if you want >to prove me wrong, then I am willing to listen to any concrete >solutions you can present to us. I don't prove you anything. Thats exactly the job YOU do all the day. I prove nothing. I join my hobby. With friends. I live my life. And if you talk language, and I like you, I talk with you. But i will not prove. You seem to have a problem with your prove-topic there. All questions and all comments of you materialist refers to PROVE. Why do you always need prove ? Can't you live relaxed and happy without proving ? Kiss your wife. But don't prove it. >- Don
