Chess Advice most chess players don't like to hear

Stop living in a fantasy world in which computer analysis and evaluations are always superior to those of carbon-based life forms

I don't know if this applies to "most" chessplayers but it certainly applies to some members of chess.com

Or even the most basic one : stop living in a fantasy world where computers give useful analysis instead of a bunch of random variations.

IM Pruess,
I joined Chess.com on November 21st, 2008 and I often spend hours on the
Tactics Trainer. I peaked at 2295 and now am at 1710(However, Jay tweaked
the rating system so most people have dropped quite a bit).
 
Anyway, my point is am I overdoing it? I certainly feel I can learn more than 2-3 problems a day before sleeping, maybe 9-10. Should I do only 15 minutes per day? I am remembering a lot of the problems when I see them again so they are
in my long-term memory, but then again there are 49,648 total problems.


Lately I have been searching for examples of irony because I feel like the definition of the word is slipping. People apply it to things which are merely coincidental. THIS is irony. No offense intended...just had to laugh.

Weird. I'm 1700 on puzzles and I'm only rated Rapid 500.
