komi

When you throw in handicap stones, komi, and reverse komi, how much you win or lose by is arbitrary.

Solving Go means determining by what margin the first player can win, or equivalently, at what komi for white the game is a theoretical draw.

Between the 5.5 Komi vs 6.5 Komi debate, its not very clear if Go has a 1st-player advantage or a 2nd-player advantage.

Similarly the custom of the stronger player playing white without komi suggests that the point differential matters.

Some combination of stones (~4 stones on the 9x9 board), followed up with severe Komi (30+ stones of Komi) is probably better for both players rather than giving the beginner like...

Knowing how much komi should be is equivalent to knowing how to play the best game.

Scoring is sharper in go, so even with integer komi you don't see enough draws to really be a problem.

Superhuman strength AI-Go has given us more data on this subject (suggesting 6.5 Komi is balanced).

We love this Nori Komi furikake, you can put it on anything, including buttery popcorn!

Well that makes you related to my wife, who’s part Komi (her father’s first language).

Republic of Komi - the region Vorkuta is in - has 0.5% of Russia's population.

My wife (half ethnic Komi, another Finnish group), was taught that language in school.

People there on the river will even greet you in Komi, still.

Also, I tried watching Komi-san on Netflix but it was atrocious - the timing and placements were so bad it was actually unwatchable.
