After the first check you just eat their king
Business is like Start Craft 2, you gotta raise your APM if you want to beat the Korean pros
This explains SO much about their thinking.
But he's correct. If you're rich enough you can bribe all the seconds, then you can make extra moves and irregular moves. Heck, you can just have all the seconds declare you victor.
For extra points, hire guys with guns to make sure everyone at the tournament agrees with your rules.
This is the state of modern neoliberal capitalism from the view of billionaire oligarchs and multi-national conglomerate corporations.
I hear you can cheat at chess by sticking a vibrator in your ass.
Maybe that's what the rich CEOs are doing to win
I keep trying but it doesn't seem to make me rich
your buddy vapes over the game board
"I activate fog of war"
We hit that bullseye and the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards.
Checkmate.
So what that brick do?
The FIDE regulations dictate that a player who declines en passant must drop a brick on their pipi. A brick is kept nearby for such eventualities
holy hell
new response dropped
I don’t see any anal beads in that drawing though.
Pull harder
I figured it was something like that.
I thought the one guy had shit a brick...
No no, this makes sense, you literally need to cheat.
It works for the crooks in charge.
But the people paying for these kind of alpha boot camps aren't ever going to be in that position. They'll just put on blinders and "hustle" like a good little worker.
I "know" how to play chess but when I try to play against a computer I constantly get reminded I can't move my piece there because I would be putting myself in check.
Pretty sure I've only won 2 chess games in my life. ..... Against someone at my level.
I beat my kids
at chess whenever we play.
Chess isn't actually a logic game or a smarts game, it's a memory game. If you're a computer or one of those 15-people-per-generation chess brains, then yeah, you probably can logic your way into thinking enough moves ahead. If not, your only option is to remember a bunch of different plays and learn how to recognise and execute the preditermined strategies. If you try to do it your way, you will be stuck losing to a bad computer or chess club kids online
you didn't know about the French cum sock opener? you fool ! had you known you could have forked me into giving up one of my pieces !
It's called tempo, you sub-1800ers /s
Aww man, I just got up to 1350 😢
wait ELOs aren't like golf?
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
uuuuuuuuuuuck
ELO measures the year you could go back to and match someone who is actually pretty good at chess for their time.
my elo is in BCE and I'm feeling good all of a sudden
But that is how CEO assholes work (or try to until they can't get away with it)
Source: worked with nearly a dozen CEOs of various size companies
To be fair, though, if you were in a game of chess where you could make 10 moves for every one move your opponent makes, it would be really easy to win that game of chess.
The Scholar’s mate school of business.
Chess with flash windows.
I feel so fucking dirty for saying those words. Good god.
Alpha in the software sense: pre-release, lots of bugs, definitely not ready for production, sale, or wide public viewing.
Alpha male when full release male walks in: 😧
So we can ship it tomorrow? Great I just told the investors, so we're now leagly obligated to ship it tomorrow.
And increasingly: Mostly composed of an assortment of self-reinforced hallucinations.
I don't want to ruin this meme, but he's saying a real thing in a confusing way. You have to think 10 moves ahead of your opponent and also the repercussions of each move at every step.
Zero points for saying it wrong, though.
“You miss every shot you take”
“The only thing we do not fear is fear itself”
“Interrupt your opponent when he is making a mistake”
There is a wonderful cartoon book by Tom Weller called "Minims". A minim is the opposite of a maxim. So the book is full of illustrations of wisdom like "The early worm gets eaten by the bird." and "You'll catch more flies with honey than you'd care to." The book's subtitle is "Man is the only animal that wears bow ties."
(Although, I have to admit, my husky sometimes wears bow ties and he looks a lot better in them than I do.)
Cats in bow ties also look great.
"If fighting is sure to result in defeat then you must fight"
Shouldve said business is like starcraft then
No, he said a real thing in a completely factually wrong way, and that's assuming that this "entrepeneur" actually understood it correctly, which I doubt.
I mean, that's kind of the point - someone else wiser said the real thing, then Mr smarty-pants heard it, didn't understand it, but thought it sounded cool so began repeating what he thought he heard to people who also don't know any better, but like the way he says it so they give him their money to play with. Business/capitalism in a nutshell.
I gave up on playing chess. The game has become such a metaphor, such a fetish symbol for intellect, so every dude "knows how to play", but won't risk the humiliation of loss, and therefore won't play. I don't enjoy online chess, so I just don't get to play.
Give shot chess a try. Each piece is a small shot glass.
I had loads of fun destroying my friends since I was in the chess club in grade school. And they had fun because alcohol.
Or find a park that has chess boards.
