That feeling when you miscalculated the sun’s position in a taxi

Be the damn penguin.

Me rn 😁

And we've finally arrived 😁

Miscalculated the time it would take me to get there by that much lol

Had to dip

What an event this was, i swear to god 🙌

This is awesome, will probably do it in the future, in the far future

Ive officially started working on my own chess engine (Oxide) using rust

I began with pawn and knight move generation, and for now im keeping things simple and readable instead of jumping straight into heavy optimizations. The knights are generated using straightforward (file, rank) offsets... check all 8 possible jumps, make sure the target square is on the board, and allow the move if its empty or holds an enemy piece.

Its not bitboards yet, but its easy to reason about and hard to get wrong, which is exactly what I want at this stage. I’ve also finished pawn move generation, so the engine can already produce a decent chunk of legal moves.

Next up are sliding pieces (bishops, rooks, queens), which is where things start getting more interesting. Once thats done, I’ll probably revisit move gen and optimize.

Finally feels good to actually be building this instead of just thinking about it. ♟
