DJMcMayhem

Idk, it seems like a really interesting topic that's slightly out of the norm of what the blog would usually get, but still very related to PPCG

Downgoat

@EriktheGolfer you'll need to submit to the publication

wizzwizz4

@TheveryevilROFLcopter Thanks!

PhiNotPi

I could do a single summary post (given that it's something several PPCG users have been involved with), but all of the gory details will have to stay on my own blog (because sanity).

wizzwizz4

@noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC I tried. I lost the ability to use coherent grammar. ~~Luckily I'd taken a backup of the old state of my grammar parser, so I generated training data using the backup and piped it directly into the new one, so~~ NOT A BOT!

is there any challenge on implementing

Yes (Unix)

yes is a Unix command, which outputs an affirmative response, or a user-defined string of text continuously until killed. == Description == By itself, the yes command outputs 'y' or whatever is specified as an argument, followed by a newline repeatedly until stopped by the user or otherwise killed; when piped into a command, it will continue until the pipe breaks (i.e., the program completes its execution). It can also be used to test how well a system handles high loads, as using yes results in 100% processor usage for systems with a single processor (for a multiprocessor system, a process must...

@EriktheGolfer woah dude get uBlock Origin as your adbocker

3x less memory footprint, 3x less CPU time for your browser

Compared to other adblockers

Erik the Golfer

@noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC What? It's not ABP, it's just based on ABP, but it's much faster than that.

noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@EriktheGolfer Oh, but uBlock Origin is even faster. And open-source. And Adblock is owned by ABP

Performance stats @ GitHub: github.com/gorhill/uBlock#performance

It blocks everything ABP blocks, and more. Same filters.

> uBlock₀ blocks ads through its support of the Adblock Plus filter syntax. uBlock₀ extends the syntax and is designed to work with custom rules and filters.

@EriktheGolfer Yes but uBlock Origin supports all ABP filters. And AdBlock, the adblocker you have now, only supports ABP filters.

Copy-paste the anti-adblock filter into uBlock Origin. It'll work.

Erik the Golfer

@noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC I don't have uBlock Origin right now...

Erik the Golfer

@noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC Just a question here? Have you fixed your pings there forever? The enthusiasm is because I have never seen such a massive (is it?) list of filters. Ever.

noɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@EriktheGolfer huh? what pings? Well uBlock is indeed a wide-spectrum blocker, so it blocks tracking, ads, badware (those annoying .cnet.com sites), and craploads of stuff. All the while, it's faster.

It's not terribly surprising that any language has obscure code that can make it seem really rather odd at a first glance. To judge a language based off of an obfuscated code snippet is ludicrous.

@TheveryevilROFLcopter the problem is you are using Windows

GNU GRUB

GNU GRUB (short for GNU GRand Unified Bootloader) is a boot loader package from the GNU Project. GRUB is the reference implementation of the Free Software Foundation's Multiboot Specification, which provides a user the choice to boot one of multiple operating systems installed on a computer or select a specific kernel configuration available on a particular operating system's partitions. GNU GRUB was developed from a package called the Grand Unified Bootloader (a play on Grand Unified Theory). It is predominantly used for Unix-like systems. The GNU operating system uses GNU GRUB as its boot loader...
