Quran for sure! The best ever book that you *must* read!

See: https://quran.com/ (With Translations) https://tafsir.app/ (ARABIC)

In the past, there was http://robocode.sourceforge.net/ for Java.
Any site with forced popups or forced video auto-playing is black listed ... I don't visit it again ever!

Any site says to me to stop my ad-blocker ... also black listed ... I don't need their online garbage ... I am already paying money to access their online crap!

For Youtube channel's home forced video auto-play ... I skip it ... and usually I move directly to the channel's videos listing page bypassing the channel's home page!

I HATE forcing videos or stupid content or large images on users! and I consider it "Online Abuse" and disrespect to the visiting users!

Also not only I use Ad-block ... I use uBlock https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock with "Block media elements larger than" 100KB !!

If anyone knows how to block Youtube Channel's Home video autoplay please tell me how, maybe uMatrix will help https://github.com/gorhill/uMatrix ... I didn't try uMatrix, will try it soon!

Just a side question but related: Is there any good-and-new ML research/model/example for "Language detection"?

For example I have a conversation in both English/Russian and I want to segment the input according to each language then handle each language separately.
