I already find original ChatGPT (free version based on GPT-3.X) being "smarter" than Bing's one based on GPT-4. The latter much easier gives up just saying that it could not find anything, while ChatGPT replies based on its &

Another cool places for habitable planets to be: - Active galaxy with a jet stretching perpendicularly to the galaxy plane for distances much bigger than the galaxy's size, shinning in all the wavelengths. - Planet around a double star

Thickness (or rather its optical depth) of this nebula would be wavelength dependent - in IR you could see through all the distant stars, while in all other wavelength, including X-rays, that nebula would glow.

Well... there is another problem obviously apart of low traction, which car cannot sense directly. Accumulation of water or snow obstruct the radar. Actually a car with no camera would report exactly that just from radar readout alone, sinc

The size of the Earth is incomprehensible - if Earth was a basketball ball in your hands, all the mountains and deepest trenches of the oceans would make the surface imperfections of under 1mm (1/20 inch) high/deep. The average oc

Since this is a theoretical question, I can theorize an actual possibility for such effect - bending of light by massive objects which results in actually observed gravitational lensing (focusing of light from distant object by front object

Ex-russians, who (or whose parents) left Russia, seem to have some kind of romantic connection to the country, they have never been to (or been there when they were young, thus "sun was shinning brighter, grass was greener, trees were

The other kind of problem is if the website is not really proxied but rather dumped, patched and re-served. In such case the only option (if JavaScript frontend redirect doesn't work) is blocking by IP the dumping server. To identify I

Making js essential is not that hard, right? Just "display: none" on the root element, which is removed by js :) More sophisticated options can been found in other comments.

Instead of blocking by IP, just check SERVER_NAME/HTTP_SERVER variables in your backend/web server (or even in JavaScript of the page check window.location.hostname) and in case those include anything but original hostname, redire

As pointed out in [1], it seems machine learning takes the same path as physics already did. In the mid-20th century there was a "break" in physics, before individuals were making ground breaking discoveries in their private/

Actually we cannot see far (other galaxies, early galaxies, quasars) in some parts of the sky because we are in our own galaxy plane [1], so stars, but mostly gas and dust between them obscure significant portion of our field of view [2]. S

Never heard about wire-controlled torpedoes before, but indeed this makes total sense. Radio waves don't travel far in water. There are quite some spectacular systems built to contact submarines underwater [1] operating in 3-300Hz radi

Those are wire-guided missiles, usually used to destroy tanks and other armed vehicles. The length of the wire is just few kilometers. The wire is needed to actually tell the rocket where to steer [1]. More modern approach to anti-tank miss

The only problem with this being a next abstraction level, is that it actually leads to more "coding", because of general spoken language being less informationly dense as any programming language. Before by switching from binary

It may work. Since it may be just a new "programming language" (somewhat literally), i.e. a new level of high level abstraction. We already know examples of such transition to higher abstraction levels: binary code -> assembly

Likely yes. Though there may be few ways to land the core booster: 1. Expend side-boosters to save enough fuel in the core for the entry+landing burn. 2. Land side-boosters on drone ships instead of flying back to land. First option is like
