Cheating Accusations in Mental Sports, Too – New York Times
For some reason it never occurred to me that one might wish to cheat at chess. Eugene Varshavsky sent the NY Times article along to me and as soon as I run into him again I’m going to ask what the heck took 45 minutes in a men’s room stall to uhhhh hide. I’m not going to ask where he hid it.
Do you ever stop and look at the devices you use every day and think, “The Future is here, and I’m still wearing denim?” I do all the time.
The point being that with everything having integrated cameras and being able to connect to everything else via Bluetooth, it’s only going to get harder to keep chess players from cheating. And if the chess club is cheating, what do you think metal shop is getting into?
