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?

Ask HN: Codebases with great, easy to read code?
https://github.com/lichess-org/scalachess/tree/master/src/ma...
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.

Revived the promise made six years ago for Requests 3
For many years now, Requests has been frozen. Being left in a vegetative state and not evolving, this blocked millions of developers from using more advanced features.

Ask HN: Is Python async/await some kind of joke?
- Ubiquitous “requests” library used in most docs examples, no async support https://github.com/psf/requests

urllib3 v2.0.0 is now generally available!
It's Lukasa (his name is Cory, there's Łukasz in PSF though, but that's a different person). Looking at him, he made significant contributions to the requests repo: https://github.com/psf/requests/graphs/contributors
- I built a chatbot that lets you talk to any Github repository

I Could Rewrite Curl
> I'd love to see the look on some of these people's faces when they find out that tool/software/whatever they use is actually using libcurl under the hood.

Trying to install autoscan from https://github.com/NiNiyas/autoscan and stuck with no idea what the problem is.
Looking around for similar errors I found this issue where they recommended trying to use a newer version of the urllib3 library.

Pain when going back to other languages
but I appreciate the fact that there is an issue about it, it's acknowledged and .. unfixable, it would now break too many things https://github.com/psf/requests/issues/2002

How do you decide when to keep a project in a single python file vs break it up into multiple files?
The requests package has been the golden standard for package structure for as long as I can remember.
What are some alternatives?
