oy! This is too complicated for me!

Like me.

Next year we are 100 base 8

And you are only 17 base 8.

17 in place of 15 base 10 will definitely boost your ego! This was like a compliment, I gave you two more years for your thinking

All I have to do is make 40-50 correct chess moves in a row and I can beat Magnus Carlsen, and I already have the first 7-8 moves down.

My dear fellow Pawn, that sounds like Puzzle Rush level 7-8.

Work hard on it!

How old are you?

62.....but this kind of thing was never my thing, even when younger....I follow a more general, aesthetic, intuitive approach to the whole thing.

Hi Mai, your first teacher hasn't been prepared to instill the right mindset to you early.

That;s all. There are no bad learners, only bad teachers.

Education is what you have left over after you've forgotten everything you learned.

Also a very good definition of chess mindset, what we use to make decisions at the board without thinking, reasoning, calculating...

Thanks Oregon
