Go up one level in this thread


Hi Arnon,

>Excuse me for the shallow language, but -
>Why do you *hate* Rybka so much?

I don't think there is a chess program I hate. For me Rybka is just another
engine. With my level I will never understand why it is better than any other
program. For me testing is equal to finding bugs.

>All your posts are filled with baseless anti-Rybka propaganda and from the day
>it was released you used every opportunity you had to bash and disrespect it.

Please quote some of my messages to prove this. But please omit those in which I
expressed my objection against announcing deadlines and not keeping them. Or
promising improvements but not including them. You remember how often the home
page was modified, don't you?

>What's your problem with it, really?

There is only one thing I don't like in Rybka. The marketing policy. It is too
aggressive for my taste. But I can accept that that is the only way to make a
living from it.
I once called Vasik a great psychologist. And I mean it.

Gábor
