Internet browsing popup menace

I wish to draw attention to some of the problems that face the people who desire ad and popup free Internet browsing.

I raised a ticket for the same, and I quote -

When typing 
www.google.com in the address bar of Microsoft Edge on Windows 10, I get the annoying popup shown in the screenshot attached.


Please give an option to suppress this popup as it is very annoying.

I use a combination of Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome for my browsing requirements

This is the reply I got from the Google Product Forums -

If you choose no thanks it should be remembered. I know you already have Chrome, but the cookies in Edge don't know that.

You will still see that message sometimes if you're using a Private window, but so long as you're in that particular window you shouldn't see the message again.

How do we resolve all such issues ?

This is a partial solution not a complete one. All Internet browser companies need to work together on this......   😡

Chess blogging - Chessbase is back with a bang !

In view of my keen interest in UI for applications and websites, I feel it necessary to promote an investigation of the new play-chess interface on www.chessbase.com . * It is minimalistic * Allows you to play as Guest * Allows you to choose from different time-controls * Allows you to test your skills vis-a-vis opponents from across the globe Have a look at this interface, that is impressive from a UI developers point-of-view, and very conducive for a chess player to test his wits !  Whoa !  😇😇😇

B Trees🌲🌳🌴 databases and CHESS☺

Binary trees are a specific version of decision trees that have two nodes,one parent and two children, and this concept is used in database programming with relational databases like SQL server for creating in clustered and non clustered indexes. Alpha beta pruning together with B tree searches makeup the basis of chess programming. I have played a program that reached its thought horizon and then had a bizarre response inspite of  having an advantage of one pawn♟️
