I learned much from Bob Hyatt's posts ! but it requires _way_ more effort in filtering ;-) Who wants to read _another_ thread about a human-computer match in 1987 (!!! ) ? Also "Been there , done that !" will not _always_ be the thing you want to read ;-) And the kind of most useless threads is two programmers fighting some useless fights when you always will think : " Hey , if you had put all that time in your program yours would have become completely unbeatable up to now ..." :-) I still wonder why in computerchess programmers keep fighting each other that much ; if you compair with Linux , Unix or Perl newsgroups where I am competent enough to follow it is a most remarkable difference Hint : something like the "years behind" thread ... What about all the Hardware or not Hardware threats ?? There was a recent post by PeterMcKenzie that was quite convincing ;-) But calling for filter functions will always sound like censorship ... Will I be moderated for this one ? If yes , it is ok by me :-) !
