    For me the most surprising observation from this thread is this tweet [1] showing that the knight's moves are exactly the squares that the queen can't get to within a 2 square manhattan distance. I.e. the knight is an anti-queen. [1]: twitter.com/skidbladnirr_/status/175028…

    I'm not aware of one, but if you can insert custom css rules it should be simple with something like tbody tr.athing:has(.title .titleline a[href*="twitter.com"]), tbody tr.athing:has(.title .titleline a[href*="twitter.com"]) + tr, tbody tr.athing:has(.title .titleline a[href\*="twitter.com"]) + tr + tr { display: none; } This selects for any `tr` which has an anchor to a url with twitter.com somewhere in it (with some layers in between) and the two `tr` which follow. Note that this is pretty naive and could have some false positives with links such as example.com/blog/a-post-about-twitter.c… and such, you could be more careful with the attribute selector if you'd like This will leave "holes" in the numbering of the list of items as the numbers are not calculated based on the structure of the document but are rather hardcoded. You could definitely fix this with some more funky css rules if needed.

    The L is an orthogonalist conspiracy theory. There's no right angles in the knight's movement, wake up sheeple! twitter.com/graycrawford/status/1750248…

    I mean, sorta? If you think about it as the "rules of the move," but the actual movement can be drawn as a straight line. See: twitter.com/graycrawford/status/1750248…
