The beta site is much harder on the eyes than the old site.
Why can't they make the background dark? Can't be that hard...

That's not an argument in favour of a layout that still doesn't give you much information when you dedicate a full 2560x1440 screen to it.

And I love those sites that hide important information just to be able to disable horizontal scrolling (not).

I guess I need to wait for these "modern" website layouts to "age" before website usability becomes valued again.

TCEC is still working on the design of the new GUI. Many changes in the layout has been made in the last week and "Night theme" has been added now.

Congrats to ChessBrainVB and Xiphos! I wonder if Xiphos will pull a Laser and advance through three divisions this season?

Could someone post the results and games of the LC0 challenge matches with The Baron and Stockfish 1.0? They aren't in the TCEC archive view yet.
