Lichess potentially allowed promotion of pawns to king
Well, only since this year, it seems.

The reason why you need good, thorough tests when writing chess engines
From another reddit thread I got the link to the commit with the fix. Thankfully, they did add a test case for this: https://github.com/lichess-org/scalachess/commit/f5218340b2a229fa519ecd239fe50aee722bcd0f

lichess doesn't let me capture en passant in the game, only in the analysis board
To be fair, that TODO has only been there for three weeks, which seems reasonable, especially considering it was written by a volunteer.
- Why does nobody play Capablanca chess anymore, while Fisher random is quite popular?

White to move. This position is a win in lichess, draw in chess.com.
Lichess does not check for mate. It simply doesn't consider KBvKN a drawn endgame.
- Where can I find lines to test my new music-memory technique?

It's funny because I remember comparing it to mine that I had tried to write during college, and appreciating how much better it is.
Pay attention to how there's a bunch of different types of chess in there too, and how that's factored.

A writeup on definitions of "insufficient material"
The Lichess implementation is as follows:
-
How chess websites define insufficient mating material.
The Lichess implementation does not fully comply with those rules. It looks strictly at the material on the board.
-
Always wondered if lichess is smart enough to notice this is a draw
For reference, here's the current implementation.

Ask HN: Codebases with great, easy to read code?
This guy made a HN mobile reader and put all the code on Github for his NDC Oslo presentation, it was good and shows off very readable asynchronous code in C#:
