#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 7 (exploiting weaknesses) completed! 😎 This chapter was very interesting and felt very practical, some of the moves required first identifying the weakness and then calculating a way to exploit it, which happens very frequently in real games!! ⭐️⭐️ #chesspunks

I want to write a blogpost about the fun refactoring and game dev tips with types I had to do with elm 🌳 for these games… hope I find the time to write it and that it’s interesting for someone else 🙏🏼
My Japanese teacher wanted us to learn the prefectures from Japan so I did another game in Elm 🌳 to help me memorise them! Enjoy! 🗾 @japonesaldia.com elm-japan.netlify.app

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 6 (a lead in development) completed! Another difficult chapter, most of the exercises were taken from Alekhines games! 🫠 (come on there’s no way I can calculate like him…) white to play in this ⭐️⭐️⭐️ puzzle I failed. Agadmator would have succeeded! #chesspunks

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 5 (don’t allow counterplay!) completed. 😎 This was a very difficult endgame chapter, lots of calculation involved and I spent like 4 hours on it and also pulled up SF to check my solutions. Failed this ⭐️⭐️⭐️ puzzle, black to play and hold the draw #chesspunks

Someone gets it!
Haskell is a pure functional language with lazy evaluation. It doesn’t compute anything unless absolutely necessary—just like you on a Monday.

Ghc now runs in your browser
ghc itself can now run purely client-side in the browser, here’s a haskell playground demo. terms and conditions apply, and i’ll write up more detailed explanation some time later, but i thought this ...

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 4 (opening repertoire against 1.c4) completed with good score! 😎 These QGD positions are not my style but at least the ideas are not that difficult. I’m happy with the symmetrical English for now. I failed this ⭐️ puzzle which is not that easy! #chesspunks

#YusupovChallenge update: book 6, chapter 3 (attacking the king) completed! 😎 I almost nailed all the exercises in this chapter, except for the ⭐️⭐️⭐️ puzzles like this one where I would find the first move, but not the best defense by the opponent (thus missing the remaining points)! #chesspunks
