Soccer comes from the full title of ‘Association Football’ when it was created in the Victorian period. There was also Rugby Football and other types of football so Soccer was used as a term of differentiation. For some reason it stuck in the states only though
Because we played a game we liked and called it football, so that's football now. We ain't gonna change the name of the game we like just cause the rest of the world wants us to. Similar to how we aren't going to stop using a lot of imperial measurements since a lot of people still like using them. Our temperature system, in particular, has no objective downside to using it. It is, in whole, equal to, if not better, than Celsius.
@@plantenthusiast3052 Fahrenheit has no objective downside just like Kelvin has no objective downside, but we still don't use Kelvin because that's not what the rest of the world uses. The objective upside of Celcius is that literally everybody else uses it. It's relative critical points (0 and 100) are something very easy to observe and understand whereas whilst fahrenheit doesn't feel as intuitive since it uses three different critical measurements for three different materials. So no, fahrenheit is not equal if not better than celcius. Celcius uses base 10 for it's critical points rather than Fahrenheit's relatively more arbitrary system. Communication of a measurement is arguably just as important as the measurement itself. Refusal to move away from the old imperial system seems to be this weird source of pride for Americans, as if your founding fathers intended for the US to never progress forward for a simpler and more versatile system *cough cough Thomas Jefferson wanted to implement the metric system cough cough*.
@Ketsu I disagree. The rest of the world should change to Fahrenheit. It's a better temperature system. I can switch to the other metric system components (m, kg, L, etc), but Fahrenheit must stay. It's just too good. Also, a core American value is in isolationism. It was a part of our culture up until WW2.
At 18:08 Hikaru takes with queen on a8 ,but if the oponent went queen to b8 ,forcing rook to take the queen on b8 ,to not get mated in 1 ,rook b1 takes rook on b8 bishop to e8 is the only legal move and after rook takes on e8 its checkmate now if the bishop were to block the queen when it goes to b8 rook b1 to b7 also leads to forced mate
After Qb8 black can play Bxe4+ and then Rxb8. Or Bxe4 and Qxe6. Or Bc5. I haven't calculated those moves but they're the first ideas that come to mind.
GMHikaru... it would be really cool if you would pre-process your videos and have the stockfish eval bar added. That way we could see just how accurate your feeling is about the various positions. Very entertaining. BTW, you rock.
Wdym? If u mean the black Bishop its just a trade, bishop takes and then horse takes and if u take the horse then the bishop takes ur bishop and also is atacking ur tower so...
@@azium2619 its obvious to not take the bishop on that position lol thats why my answer was for the previous move at 8:51, it should be obvius for u mr.intelligent
Aha there might be a tiny shred of hope for us mortals. I may think that a 2600 would still be a challenge, definitely a strong GM should be past the disrespect threshold. How much is 200 difference at this level? It should be narrower than say the difference between 1000 and an 800. Any strong 2300 or 2400 seems still to be a student for Hikaru. If I overthink it I will definitely want to quit...We all should keep in mind this is one of the top 4 or 5 players in the world, any accessibility at all is pure generosity. Thanks Hikaru for posting, I am learning a lot from watching you play. It is like Kasparov's masterclass, but much faster time control. Regardless, I will still be happy to maybe crack 2000 in a few years if I can.
im learning a lot too and hikarus knowledge of the game is astounding. but like you said, hes top 5 in the world. even at 2400 it would be like an nba rookie going 1 v 1 against Lebron in his prime. no comparison. the fun thing is we get watch hikaru chomp up nubs to him
@@WiiNunchuck Right, but it does take years if you were a full grown man when you started playing chess, and working a full time job while trying to learn it. I learned/started chess 3 years ago. The more I learn about chess the more I realize the really good players live and breath it. And the true greats played as children. I have a deep love for the game, but I realize I will not ever be truly great at it. And I've reached 1200 before, I just say I'm 1100 cause I keep being knocked back to the 1100's.
The amount of disrespect you have is brutal, how can you say a 2200 is bad at chess when there's people who struggles being 750 (not me XD)... Chess is hard man, even a 400 is bad for me, but I cannot disrespect him, because I know there is so many people better than me. That said, I think that you can disrespect who you want, that's another good part of being (if not the) one of the best players ever.
4:48 another American thinking there world champs at things only they do kek.. hikaru good at chess but his takes on other things like stocks and general life are ludicrous
I love the stupid soccer debate. We score more points with our feet than Soccer does and there are many football sports. In Gridiron football (USA and Canada football)??? You kick the ball into a goal or you run the ball into the red zone with your feet and on a some occasions, you can extend your hands past the goal line and score but also in Soccer, you can score off your head. Whoever said in USA football that you score with your hands and left feet out must have been smoking something.
95.75% of the global population use the metric system. "Soccer" is an English word derived from "Association Football" , shortened to "assoc", and then slang of soccer. This was to differentiate from Rugby Football (More like American Football) But Rugby football just became Rugby and Association football became "Football' most countries dropped "soccer" mainly except the Americans but England still occasionally uses interchangeably. Also on metric system, why wouldn't you use a system divisible by ten an weights and measures all related in some way? I thought you were a smart guy ? 😉
22:03 One of the more annoying tendencies of Hikaru. Just sorta starts addressing a topic, without any thought or effort, but lets the mouth make words anyways.
Is it me or is Hikaru not so good at showing disrespect? Isn't the point to play very cheeky and funny moves? He seems to just do an odd opening, and then try to recover and play normally.
When someone play with accuracy of 99 and says -' I messed this up '

17:48 I was thinking rb8 has to be winning for white, and it is, but he blundered e4 instead, making the pos equal. I am now better than a 2200.
Okay, so what if Hikaru would have a camera so that we could see Hikaru sharply in close-ups. That'd be awesome!
Yeah zoom in on Hikaru when he loses a bunch of SCVs to psionic storm just like those old Brood War matches.
18:33. White sacs on f7 and Hikaru couldve been mated
Nope
he did mate
Nf7 isn't check, black just takes the rook on b8 or goes Be4 and then takes
