@301N @ImShahinyan It stops 1 Qb1+ g6 2 Qb7# being a second inelegant solution

@ImShahinyan Inspiration, maybe. Does it stop 1. Bf1 as the solution, precluding 2. Bd3? Thus forcing 1.Ba8 as the single solution?

White mates in 2 A very beautiful puzzle 😍

@harman_geoff They must have gone extinct on a weekday then… at least they had one last weekend to chill out on before it happened.

@rushicrypto When I was at school I was taught that the dinosaurs went extinct 65 million years ago. That must mean they went extinct 65,000,040 years ago, now.

People are losing it after watching the dinosaur documentary on Netflix because of the amount of time ago that the dinosaurs were here. Modern humans are about 300,000 years old. I will die on this hill when I tell you that the vast majority of people don’t understand the concept of the longevity of the earth at this point.

@H0H0v 46 and 26

H + M = ?

@chrizmillr @NYTGames I’m still annoyed from weeks ago when it wouldn’t allow Cockblocked

Grow your lexicon, @NYTGames

@codek_tv Yes

Can you SOLVE this ?

@codek_tv +6 and -6

Can you SOLVE this ?

@H0H0v +30 and -30

H =?

@AerospaceCross @chess_feed Such a shame, did you promote to queen and draw, or completely blunder to a loss by moving the king?

@chess_feed I had this position in a game yesterday. Unfortunately, I missed the idea.

@jensonanderton @AaronDikos @russell_m @LeVeonBell Amateurish. I used play chess by myself whilst attempting to mimick the styles of famous players. The famous players then played in tournaments where I recorded the moves and results in a notebook. If you are going to be autistic, done it properly.

@AaronDikos @russell_m @LeVeonBell Tf kinda autism maxing is that

there are 4 girls in a room: - macy is playing chess .. - lucy is watching tv .. - kayla is sleeping .. what is the 4th girl doing?

@Coffey3C1 @H0H0v Yep, all those sequence questions are flawed. One could put any value in next and then produce a set of rules that matches the created sequence.

I'm not a brilliant mathematician by any measure, but I do find that a lot of these 'Problems' that are posted rely on assumptions, which have never actually been specified in the problem. One of the worst of them are the questions where they ask to complete a series... and they give 1,2,3, and 5... and people complete as if 4 is there, when there is not specification that suggests anything other than '5' is the fourth number. Poorly prepared problems also teach lessons I suppose; however, for people like me, without any great mathematical acumen, it's... a frustration... trying to figure out just how I may be an idiot.

Calculate the green area

@Coffey3C1 @H0H0v I certainly haven’t seen a proof to The Answer is 4 Conjecture in any of the replies

I can understand the estimate being something close to four, but unless you know that the angle/corner of the larger square lies precisely at the center of the smaller one, it does not seem like there is enough evidence to calculate. "Four," is an estimate, and by eye, it is a good one, but it is not a calculation. I suppose I missed something in class all those years ago?

@TouchlineX In 1898 Derby County played their last 4 league games in 5 days, 4 days before playing in FA Cup Final. 6 players played all 5 games. No subs.

A football stat that sounds fake but is actually true? 👀

@Math_files Except 1 over infinity isn’t zero, it is just infinitely small. Because 2 does indeed exist, right there between 1 and 3.

2 is the only even prime. But the total number of primes is infinite. Therefore the probability that a given prime number is even is 1 over infinity, or zero. Hence it’s impossible for a prime number to be even — and hence 2 does not exist.

@MrMichaelSpicer Is the source Martin O’Neill?

Breaking: Celtic have sacked Martin O'Neill to be replaced by interim boss Martin O'Neill. It is understood Martin O'Neill will be in the dugout for the next game after which he will be sacked. Sources say Martin O'Neill is tipped to replace Martin O'Neill.

@LocalBateman Fewer

@phillowe1 @dcfcofficial Shouldn’t that be Charlie Palmer for that kit and number 2

@simongerman600 Surely this stat has massive selection bias to it . If you have the test it is because you don’t want to a DS kid. If you don’t have the test it is because you don’t care if the kid has DS or not. Surely the stat you are after is % of pregnancies that are tested for DS

9 out of 10 pregnancies where Down Syndrome is diagnosed are terminated. Eugenics are very much a thing.

@InterestingSTEM A gross 144

What is the largest number between one and a million that does not contain the letter ‘N?

Who is this footballer???
