Re: Fire 5 is out!
That's your opinion. In my opinion there are too much similaries in not playing strength relevant things, in my opinion Rybka started as Fruit.Rebel wrote:There was no copying, only takking ideas, granted a lot of ideas.

Call it double standard, I want to see the same evidences as you and many others wanted to see in the past in the Rybka case. If you defend Rybka that hard, why don't you defend Fire? Tell me as an expert: Is the shown evidence enough to say that Fire is a Stockfish clone?

I gave you the URL, look at the admission of the 2 Rybka investigatoes (Watkins & Wegner) in the document, page 3, subject mixed messages.Call it double standard, I want to see the same evidences as you and many others wanted to see in the past in the Rybka case.
It's not about Rybka, I use it because of the double standard. If such evidence (equal strings) had been found in Rybka 1.0 all that massive work done by Watkins and Wegner hardly had been necessarily. See now?If you defend Rybka that hard, why don't you defend Fire? Tell me as an expert: Is the shown evidence enough to say that Fire is a Stockfish clone?
About Fire, I don't know if it's a SF clone, the evidence for that is not sufficient but he surely has a habit to put himself into trouble.

I want to clarify that I never have said that is a clone, at least how I so understand.
If a derivative.
Only a have since that Word and I am repentant, yet so is speaks of changes and work in the code.
I think that many parameters of the code, have been changed to give another form of game or disguise its origin. And he has almost been achieved.velmarin wrote: you will change according to change the Github of Stockfish, a clone derived more, but to disguise has lost its strength.
These chains have betrayed him, but he has been close.
Now we will see the future of Fire with the schema and structure Stockfish has a promising future ahead.

Why should I? Everything is told, if you like you can search the Forum.Rebel wrote:What a person believes is irrelevant, only what they can proof. I would say start a thread in EO with your proof.
It is a long time since the Rybka case, more than 10 years. People did a lot of work to show their points and tried to prove their point of view. It is not at all comparable to this case. And even if the reasoning would have been as poor as Mr Velascos today, Rybka is in the meantime accepted, no one complains nowadays. So even if someone would have done a mistake, don't you think after 10 years a polemic "double standard" designation is out of place? Let's bury the hatchet.It's not about Rybka, I use it because of the double standard.
Fine. We agree. But we are talking about Fire in this thread, not about Mr. Schmidts habit.About Fire, I don't know if it's a SF clone, the evidence for that is not sufficient but he surely has a habit to put himself into trouble.

Re: Fire 5 is out!
Well the strange signs is what you posted as evidence. Thats why I asked for "Details?" I'd like to see which strings except the 16 endgame identifier are from Stockfish.velmarin wrote:I not have seen no question, just a lot of signs strange that you has since, with a "details?"Alexander Schmidt wrote:except for the endgame stuff which means nothing.

No, if that not is enough evidence for you,Alexander Schmidt wrote: I'd like to see which strings except the 16 endgame identifier are from Stockfish.
I am not going to argue with a wall.
Not waste any more time.
In addition someone wrote this:
Alexander Schmidt wrote: It IS illegal to copy and paste any single line of code of a copyrighted engine like Fruit without the required credits, regardless if it is tolerated by a mayority or not.
It IS illegal to start with a copyrighted code, and it is still illegal if every single line of the code is rewritten, regardless how many ELO the new engine may be stronger.

Re: Fire 5 is out!
I was seriously asking, you told there is much more than this endgame identifiers. There are several ways how they could get into Fire and they are not enough to be sure that Stockfish code was copied.velmarin wrote:No, if that not is enough evidence for you,Alexander Schmidt wrote: I'd like to see which strings except the 16 endgame identifier are from Stockfish.

If we agree about this order: pnbrqk. Unique? Bullshit of course.
