Balance

Thus to foresee the modification of the hierarchy of strategic factors is nothing other than to be able to define critical positions. — Iossif Dorfman

Lichess

Put this into the URL field of a bookmark and put the bookmark on the toolbar. Click it when you're playing/watching games on Lichess. 
javascript:(() => {
    document.querySelectorAll(".time")
        .forEach(e => e.style.display="none");
    document.querySelectorAll(".bar")
        .forEach(e => e.style.backgroundColor="grey")
})()
It will make the board somewhat more distraction-free by removing the redundantly big clocks and dimming the bars. The following will dim the whole page. 
javascript:(() => {
    const style = document.body.style;
    style.filter = style.filter ? "" : "brightness(.7)"
})();

Profiles

Instead of their names, I wanted to show a little photo of each player in the seatings view of the still #todo swiss pairer. Since we don't really do photos at our club, I decided to finally jump on the generative AI bandwagon and try to talk up a couple visual approximations in lieu of the actual facial facsimiles. deepai.org But writing prompts is a minor artform. wiki arxiv.org One of our players has a Santa beard so I started with this low hanging fruit. Alas, to sobering results. Once you've said "Santa" it's difficult to get him to wear anything but Santa clothes. "Santa in plaids..." got me nowhere. "Homeless Santa..."? Zilch. It's the full Santa or bust. Could be Santa is a package deal? stablehorde.net gh dbzer0.com deepai.org docs.midjourney.com wiki gh howtogeek.com howtogeek.com howtogeek.com gh gh gh wiki wiki wiki wiki wiki wiki deeplearning.ai gh udacity.com pytorch.org huggingface.co

It will be a minor challenge to remove all exception handling. Maybe longjmp. Using std::optional might not be enough. We might need to fallback on std::pair and some long error code enum in an --include globals.h. But rewriting everything will have the side-effect of getting to fully understand the code, which I wanted to avoid since all I need is a quick tool. I wasn't planning on becoming an expert on this particular subset of the universe. Neither does it's coding style appeal to me, not particularly.

If for one of the players the static balance is negative, he must without hesitation employ dynamic means and be ready to go in for extreme measures. — Iossif Dorfman
