What does HackerNews think of Stockfish?

UCI chess engine

Language: C++

A little bit of python and some stockfish could probably improve your play dramatically!

Some of the best C++ code written. Extremely clear and concise. Chess-AI is a bit complicated but the source-code + comments seems to inform the programmer where all the problems are.

Stockfish has won in the past 5 seasons. Interesting project – their open source engine is used on both Chess.com and Lichess.

Interesting. As I know, Stockfish [1] chess engine exploits NNUE nets optimized for CPU and regularly beats up Leela [2], which explots traditional GPU-based networks based on AlphaZero architecture.

The Stockfish chess engine [1] is very nice, especially so since chess engines tend to be very kludgy.

I learned a ridiculous amount from reading the source code to TeX (https://www.amazon.com/Computers-Typesetting-B-TeX-Program/d...) but it is written in a very 1970s style.
