5 Ways to Tell If You’re Chatting with a Bot



Technology has brought us a lot of wonderful things, such as ordering a pizza with a single button, or receiving text alerts — about how close your pizza is. However, not everything is sunshine and pizzas in the digital age. Once upon a time, you could say with confidence that the person you were talking to is, well, an actual person. That's no longer the case as robocalls and chatbots, computer programs designed to simulate human interaction over the phone or on the web, are more common than ever, and getting more sophisticated every day.

12 Signs Your Computer Has Been Hacked https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6XFaUT2RfU& #bot #chatbot #brightside SUMMARY:
– Since bots don’t need to sleep, they can spend all night spamming your feed with suspiciously similar posts. So, if one account is posting comments 24/7 365, you've probably got a bot on your hands.
– If they’re posting the exact same comment all the time and every single one has a link to the same website, you probably have a bot on your hands.
– Chatbots may be complicated machines, but they’re still just machines. Creative thinking isn’t exactly their forte, or their pommel either.
– Bots pick words out of comments posted by real humans and run them through an algorithm to select the appropriate response.
– If you're ever not sure what you're dealing with, you can try asking them a series of very similar questions.
– Bots often don't know what to do with jokes and have no understanding of context or the nuance of social interaction. – Since humans are big on oversharing, you can probably guess that bots aren’t that into it. Most websites that allow users to leave public comments require them to register an account.
– The automatic responses bots give out tend to be chock full of keywords. Those keywords attract other bots, whose responses attract more bots. – Even when things don’t escalate that far, bots still love to follow each other around. Particularly nefarious programmers will go as far as creating bots specifically to upvote the comments of their other bots. – A bot is a bot, and even when the programmers try to be subtle, they tend to fixate on one topic exclusively. – Hearing about all this, you might get the impression that all chatbots are bad. That isn't the case, and many serve useful functions. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

Scientists Have Found the Lowest Land on Earth



The Earth's lowest known place is the Challenger Deep, almost 36,000 ft below the ocean's surface! But however incredible it may sound, dry land also has some extreme points which lie way, way lower than sea level. And the lowest of them, previously hiding under a massive glacier, has been discovered only recently! Antarctica's massive ice sheet effectively hides the continent's mysteries. But scientists don't give up: they've been using radar equipment to crack Antarctica's riddles. And recently, their efforts have paid off! Other videos you might like:

Death Valley 0:37
The Dead Sea 1:30
Lake Baikal 2:12
The Krubera Cave 3:05
Denman Glacier 3:55
Mponeng & TauTona Gold Mines 4:48
KTB Borehole 6:17
SG-3 Kola Superdeep Borehole 7:08 #geology #DeadSea #brightside SUMMARY:
– The most amazing thing about Death Valley is that it's home to the lowest point in North America – Badwater Basin. This place lies 282 ft below sea level, which is just a bit smaller than the Statue of Liberty!
– The Dead Sea made it to this list because until recently, its surface and shores were considered the lowest point on dry land. The Dead Sea is on average more than 1,400 ft below sea level – that's just a bit less than the height of the Empire State Building! – The Baikal is a unique water body that contains more than 20% of all unfrozen surface freshwater in the world. The lake's total depth is more than five Eiffel Towers piled on top of each other. – No one knows for sure how deep the Krubera Cave really is. Believe it or not but this abyss may drop down to 7,200 ft underground.
– Stretching more than 11,500 feet below sea level, a canyon under Denman Glacier turned out to be 8 times deeper than the Dead Sea shores!
– Being almost the same in size, Mponeng and TauTona mines are as deep as 700 giraffes and filled with complicated mazes of underground tunnels. – The main KTB borehole (that's a hole branching from the main hole) reached a mind-blowing depth of almost 30,000 ft, which is the cruising altitude of passenger airliners – filled with giraffes!SG– 3 Kola Superdeep Borehole is almost 400 ft shorter than the longest man-made well. But we're talking about the lowest points below sea level – the Kola Borehole is number one. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

26 Short Facts That Explain Lots of Confusing Things



Just when you think you have this world figured out, all these questions pop up in your mind: why do car rides and rain make you sleepy? Why do airplanes have a hole in the tail? And which water extinguishes fire better, cold or hot? Do you know what makes us perceive the clouds as white? Or why dogs kick their legs when you rub their belly? Or why most big space objects like planets and stars are round? Well, those answers and plenty more coming your way! Other videos you might like:

20 Interesting Facts You're Too Lazy to Google https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZqFokYyluw&
16 Little-Known Facts That Will Save You One Day https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpUCk_d5f14& #factsyouneverknew #brightside #strangefacts SUMMARY:
– Storm clouds may seem to turn dark, but it's just an illusion. Thin clouds on a sunny day let the light through and scatter all the colors of the light spectrum. – Leaves don’t really change colors – they just lose their green pigment. – When a mosquito breaks your skin, your immune system perceives the insect's saliva as a foreign substance and starts making histamine. – Zebras probably have their stripes as protection from bug bites. The stripes seem to dazzle the insects, and they can't make a controlled landing.
– Most salt in oceans and seas comes from land. – Rain makes you drowsy because the sky is overcast, and without sunlight, your body produces melatonin – the very hormone that makes you sleepy at night.
– Cats regularly lick themselves to prevent skin oils from gathering on their fur.
– Your stomach “growls” when you're hungry because your digestive muscles are contracting to sort of warm up in preparation for a coming meal. – Cats love boxes so much because they make great hiding places. No predator can sneak up on them from behind, yet your cat can still observe its surroundings without being seen.
– Dogs kick their legs when you rub their belly thanks to the so-called scratch reflex. That perfect spot your canine loves so much is full of nerves that go straight to the spinal cord. – Driving already makes you drowsier after 15 minutes into your trip. The reason is your seat vibrating at low frequencies, lulling your body and brain.
– Flamingos turn pink because they live on a certain kind of blue-green algae and brine shrimps.
– As people get older, their hair follicles start to lose pigment cells. – A comet’s tail is created by the Sun. Its heat turns some of the comet's material into vapor and releases dust particles trapped in the ice. – If a space body is too small, like an asteroid, its mass and gravity aren't strong enough to form a spherical shape. – The temperature of the water you use to extinguish a fire does matter. And surprisingly, hot water can put out the flames faster than cold. – Most cruise ships are white because they typically sail in hot tropical climates. The white paint reflects sunlight better than any other color and keeps the ship nice and cool. – When your body warms up more than normal, your brain reacts to this potential danger by releasing sweat from the over 2 million glands scattered all over your body!
– Bees make honey to have something to eat all winter, when there are few or no flowers (their main food source).
– The holes in some types of cheese are made by bacteria used in the production process. – Fresh rain falling on dry ground smells so nice thanks to a unique mixture of ozone, plant oils, and bacterial spores.

Why No One Should Dim a Phone Screen



Even though cell phones have dramatically changed since the 90s, loads of myths surrounding them are still the same! The more megapixels the phone's camera has, the better images you get; the dimmer the screen is, the better it's for your eyes; overnight charging harms the battery. Some people even believe that a phone can cook an egg. This myth became popular after a viral Internet article – lots of people believed that radio waves a cell phone emits were so powerful that you could boil an egg by placing it between two devices. In short, smartphone myths are numerous and persistent. So let’s pop some of these dubious bubbles, shall we? Other videos you might like:

Stop Using Your Phone Sitting on the Toilet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_zbGb5yBtI&
12 Mistakes You Make When Charging Your Phone https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=prZR1PkVjng& TIMESTAMPS:
Cell phones can start a fire at a gas station 0:37
Charging a smartphone overnight damages the device 1:23
If you've dropped your smartphone in water, put it in rice 1:44
Your phone can cook an egg 2:38
smartphone can demagnetize your credit cards 3:11
Magnets can delete data from your smartphone 3:32
Let your phone's battery drain completely before recharging 4:19
The more megapixels your camera has, the better photos you'll get 5:00
4G uses more data than 3G 5:28
The dimmer the screen is, the better 5:54
Better specifications mean better performance 6:29
Smartphones emit harmful radiation 6:49
If you make a call while your phone is charging, it may catch fire 7:13
The larger your phone's battery capacity is, the longer it will serve 7:47
Close background apps to boost your phone's performance 8:15
Using incognito mode will protect your privacy 8:45 #smartphone #gadget #brightside SUMMARY:
– Why cell phones are banned at gas stations is probably because they can and do distract drivers from the task at hand. – If a decade ago overcharging could indeed damage the battery, you don't need to worry about such an outcome these days.
– Rice doesn't soak up just any liquid that happens to be nearby. To absorb water, rice grains have to be in direct contact with it.
– The amount of radiation a cell phone emits is so small that you would need 7,000 smartphones to boil an egg – and even this number is very approximate since nobody has checked it yet. – Your gadget does have a magnetic field, but it's so weak that it won't affect your bank cards in any way. – Some experts recommend draining your phone's battery completely only if your device quits working at 20% charge. Then emptying the battery might help you recalibrate its level sensor. – Most people are sure that the number of megapixels is the best indicator of how good your pictures are gonna be. What they don't know is that not the number of megapixels but their quality plays the main role here.
– Since the 4G connection is faster, most people believe that it uses more data. But whatever connection you use, 5 MB of data is still 5 MB of data. – If your screen brightness is higher than 50%, though, you should keep it down a bit. An over-bright screen can cause lots of short-term eye issues, from irritation to dry eyes and strain. – The EM radiation frequency your smartphone emits is completely safe for you.
– There have been several cases when devices started burning, but it happened because of low-quality batteries, suspicious second-hand chargers, and dubious charging methods.
– The battery life mostly depends on how much power your device consumes. – By closing background applications, you waste more battery because your phone has to spend more resources on opening an app than on re-launching it. – The private mode does prevent your browser from storing your cookies, passwords, and other information. But it doesn't equal an encrypted connection, and other people, for example, Internet service providers, can see your browsing history.

The Only Reason Why Modern Planes Are Better Than Old Ones



Travel by airplane is by far the fastest, but not the most comfortable way to go. It wasn’t always like this, though. Getting to lie down in a spacious bed-seat? Check. Full hot meals, bars, and even pianos on board? Also check. So what else has changed in the past 100 years of human flight? The first airplane ever was the Wright Flyer made by the Wright brothers in 1903. It made just a few short flights, but those changed history forever. The first commercial airplane in history was the Model 14 Benoist airboat: it took passengers from St. Petersburg to Tampa in Florida, making the journey a dozen times shorter than by train or steamboat. But the true golden era of commercial flights began in the 1950s… Other videos you might like:

What Happens When a Bird Flies Into a Plane Engine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CozYL-_ttEc&
Why No One Should Swap Seats on a Plane https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLvlmtSPGx4& #planes #aviation #brightside SUMMARY:
– Let’s first take a look at one of the most typical airliners of the time: Douglas DC 6. – With the size of it — 100 ft long and almost 10 ft wide — it’s a bit surprising that it only accommodated 48 passengers.
– The seats were big and comfortable, with plenty of leg room. They also had seat backs that could go all the way down, so you could take a hearty nap if you wanted to.
– There was a real menu and you could order whatever you wanted, be it a rib-eye steak or smoked salmon.
– The average price of a domestic ticket would cost you a month’s wages, and a Trans-Atlantic flight was a luxury for the richest.
– Passengers would dress up for the flight as if they were attending a social event — and in a sense, they were. – But today’s airplanes have much more to offer in terms of entertainment: personal screens with lots of movies, TV shows, and even games, magazines to read, and of course, on-board shopping.
– Modern jet airplanes usually fly at about 480 mph, climbing as high as 39,000 ft above ground.
– Low altitudes of the old airplanes meant stronger and more frequent turbulence. – The engines were also awfully loud: the propellers and engines roared together to create enough lift and push the aircraft forward. – Another distinctive feature of the old airplanes were square windows. – Even seat design has changed a lot towards safety. – In the past, an accident could’ve torn the seats from the floor, so you basically traded safety for comfort.
– In older planes, long-haul flights often required them to make stops on the way for refueling and maintenance. – Airplanes weren’t the only means of air travel, though. Don’t forget about airships! Those were slow, huge, and often dangerous. – The real age of airships came in the early 20th century, when the German Zeppelin Company made their rigid passenger-carrying dirigibles.
– Compared to the most prominent airship of the time, even Airbus A380, the superjumbo jet that dwarfs other airplanes in size, is like a fly to an elephant.
– Airships couldn’t rival airplanes in speed or passenger capacity, but they were comfortable and luxurious. – They could’ve become a tourist thing kinda like cruise ships, if not for the 1937 disaster of that same Hindenburg over New Jersey. – Today, though, there’s plenty of talk about the return of the giant dirigibles. In about 5 years, for example, the first airship will take a hundred passengers on a North Pole expedition.

How Much It Would Cost to Build Famous Landmarks Today



Stonehenge, the Taj Mahal, the Great Pyramid of Giza – all incredible historical monuments and impressive engineering feats! But have you ever wondered how much it would cost to build these awe-inspiring landmarks nowadays? For example, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Great Pyramid of Giza was built around 4,000 years ago. The whole thing was made with more than 2 million limestone blocks, each weighing about 2.5 tons. And it took tens of thousands of workers up to 30 years to complete the construction! If you decided to build such a colossal monument nowadays, the total price tag would be a jaw-dropping $1.2 billion! But it isn’t even the most expensive! Other videos you might like:

– Let’s say you just want to make yourself a Big Ben Bell. You’ll need to get hold of $63,000 for copper, 67,000 for tin, 90,000 for the workers, and 3,000 for cranes and the whole installation process. In total, it’s $223,000. – To build Statue of Liberty nowadays, you’d need $780,000 for the materials (copper, steel, and concrete) and half a million for the construction work. Meaning the total cost of your Statue of Liberty project would be almost $1.3 million. – Stonehenge consists of two types of stones. So, that’ll be $1 million for the sarsen stones (the smaller ones), 100,000 for bluestones (those are the big ones), another 100,000 for trenching, and 2.3 million for the labor and cranes. – If you decided to build your own Tower of Pisa, you’d need to spend almost $3 million on the white marble it’s made from. The cranes and labor would add 1.2 million to that. – To build an Eiffel Tower in your backyard, you’d need the permission of your neighbors (good luck with that!) plus $1.2-million-worth of materials like iron, rivets, paint, and light bulbs. – The Hanging Gardens of Babylon. If you wanted to create the same oasis for yourself, you’d have to spend 21.5 million on the materials and landscape designers. The workers will take their 10 million, and you can say goodbye to a total of $31.5 million.
– The Parthenon. These days, re-constructing the famous landmark would demand over $35 million!
– Machu Picchu. You would spend 57 million on the materials (mainly granite) and 13 million on the labor and cranes. A total of $70 million – and voila! You have a cool mountainous city!
– The Taj Mahal. To build one today, get ready to pay 3 million for the bricks, 23.5 million for the marble, 15 million for the garden, and 2.5 million for the dome! – Built from stone and concrete, Rome’s Colosseum is the world's largest amphitheater. You’ll need $200 million…just for the limestone alone! The elliptical structure would be 215 million. – The construction of the original wall took over 2,000 years to complete! It would cost you around 21 billion to get all the necessary materials. You’ll need the same amount to talk the builders into getting down to work.
