I do not see a problem for Stockfish to have 10000 Elo. I think that Stockfish stood still in the development of the engine. The Elo 45 is a poor result.

The engine is open source and anyone can improve it. What are you waiting for? Go make it 100 elo better and show everyone how it's done!

Unfortunately, I will not show everyone because I can not program. I warm up all programmers who know how to program to get to a better job and that there are around 100 Elo and not a poor one because they can afford it. If I could program it, I would show everyone where "crayfish winter".

You clearly do not understand how difficult it is to improve such a powerful engine. You probably do not even know how the engines work, since you think that 40 points of ELO is not enough.

I understand perfectly well, you just have to start and think about it all. Imagine such a scenario. The Stockfish 10 is born and I am 30 points more than its predecessor. You will think of Stockfish 10 and I have about 30 more pieces than its predecessor. And I think quite differently.

Let's become a programmer and strengthen Stockfish to 10,000 ELO points

Here I was joking a little from the whole situation. Someone wrote, and why not 5000 Elo, I wrote why not 10000 Elo. I mean about 100 Elo.

100 points ELO will be approximately in 2 years. Or after 3, as every year it becomes more difficult to improve
