Travel back to 1910 with a glimpse of pre-Revolutionary Russia in colour. I have enhanced this autochrome of Sophia Kozakova, taken by Peter Vedenisov 112 years ago. It is original colour (not colourised).

Okay, I guess GPT3 (Codex/Copilot) is writing my regex from now on. I gave it the comment, the rest - including the tests - is GPT3

When Einstein proposed his theory of relativity, he also proposed an experiment that had the potential to prove him wrong. Real science makes bold, falsifiable predictions and invites criticism.

Before clocks, there were candle clocks, that when burned, effectively indicated the passage of periods of time especailly indoor & at night. To set an alarm, you pushed a nail into the desired point and the nail would ld fall and clank on the metal holder buff.ly/2GevGQi

BREAKING: the final test of System 002 is completed, and we have another big catch on deck. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch can now be cleaned. The crew is already sorting the catch, and lots of information is still to be processed. Stay tuned!

“When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it but all that had gone before.”
