Since you’re here...

... we have a small favour to ask. More people, like you, are reading and supporting our blog: "Chess Engines Diary". And unlike many other sites and blogs, we made the choice to keep our articles open for all, regardless of where they live or what they can afford to pay.

We hope you will consider supporting us today. We need your support to continue to exist, because good entries are more and more work time. Every reader contribution, however big or small, is so valuable. Support "Chess Engines Diary" even a small amount– and it only takes a minute. Thank you.

Reintroduce futility pruning for captures

This is a reintroduction of an idea that was simplified away approximately 1 year ago.
There are some tweaks to it :
a) exclude promotions;
b) exclude Pv Nodes from it - Pv Nodes logic for captures is really different from non Pv nodes so it makes a lot of sense;
c) use a big grain of capture history - idea is taken from my recent patches in futility pruning.
