@vansh22b @numberninjaaaaa @matiks_play I agree he has an advantage coz he's familiar with UI, but it doesn't create that big of a gap in performance.

Morover, if you are talking about math, both Arithmetic and "tougher level math problem solving" is a part of it.

It doesn't make you small to accept your shortcomings

Just one hour remaining for this week's Survival Saturday to end, just hoping no one takes away my spot in the top 5 😅

@plot_twistttt Ruskin Bond

[Akshil Jain @JainAkshil]

Finished in top 3 on Div 1 leaderboard for the first time on @MatiksHQ . I don't know how I managed to pull this off, and ik it's a fluke, nevertheless it's a big thing for me

@tqbf 3B1B is great for getting the core intuition behind a topic, you never forget that intuition, but for complete theoretical understanding traditional courses are better.

Starting this year, the winner of the annual Speed Chess Championship will be awarded the Naroditsky Cup.

The cup will have the winners of previous years engraved on it and become the permanent trophy of the SCC.

I’ve played 8273 games of online chess in the last year. Assuming an average of 5 minutes per game that’s a total of 41,365 minutes of chess or 690 hours of chess or 28 full days of chess. In other words I’ve spent an ENTIRE MONTH this year playing online chess.

@Rahulity1 The pic shows it was posted 7 seconds ago, and it already has 20M likes, wow! Stop spreading fake news

[Arjun Erigaisi @ArjunErigaisi]

So heartbreaking💔
Isn't this clip from Danya's last stream more than good enough to understand how much his mental health was affected by the baseless accusations by Kramnik?
@FIDE_chess Ethics Commission must step up and prevent Kramnik from playing with mental health of others

[Anna Cramling @AnnaCramling]

2 sentences about Kramnik and long paragraphs about ”friends that didn’t help”. I am in disbelief about this tweet.

Please @EmilSutovsky and @FIDE_chess do something about Vladimir Kramnik. Your actions now will be remembered from the chess world for years to come.

Do everything in your power to make sure justice is served. For Daniel Naroditsky, and all other people who become victims of cyber-bullying.

Why unstop is not stopping from sending weird mails

@striver_79 She performed in our college fest, it was an absolute bangerr!

[Akshil Jain @JainAkshil]

@tsp_pranav @cortisoul_ @MatiksHQ Thanks ! 😊

[Akshil Jain @JainAkshil]

Into the top 10 in Div 1 @MatiksHQ, probably for the first time

[Akshil Jain @JainAkshil]

@cneuralnetwork You can do m = l + (r-l)/2 to avoid overflow, just a small thing to keep in mind

[Akshil Jain @JainAkshil]

@SushantTimmapur I must admit, even though I am from IIT Kgp, I think IIT BHU has a very strong chance, there are a lot of players at Master level from BHU, and well, from Kgp, we are two people who are Masters, one is an alumnus, and I have my placement season going on 🥲🥲

[Akshil Jain @JainAkshil]

@PrachiPreyasi @MatiksHQ 🙌

[Akshil Jain @JainAkshil]

@primal_brainer @MatiksHQ Indeed!
