rt2k: The Resurrection Arc (It Loads Fast Now)

A month ago, I wrote a post about building the perfect chess training tool and immediately abandoned it.

Then 11 of you liked that post. And I thought — okay, maybe there's something here.

The thing that was nagging me with the original one was the puzzle loading time. Whenever someone would upload a fresh set of games, it would take at least 40+ seconds. In this day and age, that is not ideal, but I thought, well, that must be the standard.

Now I had access to better compute, which I used to find the bottlenecks, and the thing I was concerned about has now been resolved. Now it is fast—even I was shocked, wow! 😱

Do I plan to use it? Maybe 😅 Because now I have a new hypothesis forming — something about art, aesthetics, and whether that mental shift could unlock the Elo gains that raw puzzle drilling hasn't. That's a future post.

Until next time. Thanks for the 11 likes. You know who you are.
