Почему тигр оранжевый, если он хищник и должен быть незаметным?

Просто у его жертв обычно лишь два типа рецепторов цвета (у человека 3). Они не видят разницы между оранжевым и зелёным (можно сравнить с некоторыми дальтониками у людей, у которых не работает один из рецепторов).

@andrey_sitnik А почему в процессе эволюции у его жертв не появились нужные рецепторы (как у нас) если это помогло бы им заметить тигра?

@cardinalby Я думаю потому что в «архитектуре млекопитающих» проще развивать слух/нюх, а не зрение.

У млекопитающих серьёзный костыль в зрении, который мешает нам видеть хорошо.

У человека жуткий хак, чтобы костыль обойти.

@andrey_sitnik кажется, очень неполный ответ. Есть и другие трихроматические млекопитающие кроме нас. Я бы ожидал, что дихроматизм позволяет, например лучше видеть в темноте или замечать быстрое движение, а плюсы от трихроматизма меньше чем у нас из-за образа жизни.

@cardinalby Да, Твиттер — много не засунуть. Вот ещё датели:

У млекопитающих нервы идут поверх фоторецепторов, создавая сильные помехи.

Поэтому у большинства млекопитающих зрение очень плохое. Проблему не исправить легко, так как порядок слоёв формируется ещё у эмбриона.

https://twitter.com/andrey_sitnik/status/1644727969255129091

@cardinalby Там не только нервы, но и сосуды идут поверх сетчатки ещё сильнее нарушая картинку.

У человека зрение на порядок лучше большинства млекопитающих из-за жуткого хака.

У нас в центре сетчатки нервы подсоединены под углом — создавая небольшую точку, расчищенную от помех.

https://twitter.com/andrey_sitnik/status/1644728255298121729

@cardinalby Только эта точки видит в большом разрешении. Вся остальная сетчатка из-за нервов и сосудов видит в очень низком разрешении.

Но мозг этой точкой сканирует все объекты и «кеширует» их вид. Поэтому нам кажется, что мы видим чётко.

@cardinalby Уровень хака у человека показывает насколько зрение фундаментально сломано у млекопитающих.

Поэтому ставка делается на другие органы чувств.

Да и у слуха/нюха есть куча плюсов. Они в темноте работают.

@alkkar @andrey_sitnik На нетфликсе есть документалка Life in colour как раз про всякие механизмы окраски у животных.

Там вроде рассказывали, что у млекопитающих в принципе не существует зелёного пигмента для шерсти. Поэтому эволюционно у тигров подобрался максимально похожий для жертвы оранжевый

@alkkar Зелёный попугай совпадает с цветом растительности только для нашего зрения.

Может быть (не точно, не знаю спектров) для животных с 5-ти компонентным зрением он может сильно отличаться.

У птиц, кстати, 4 компонента, больше, чем у людей.

@andrey_sitnik @alkkar У птиц действительно в основном 4 колбочки, хотя это и не доказанный факт. Расцветка же птицам нужна не столько для защиты, сколько для спаривания. Логично, что для многих мелких птиц выживание через размножение является более стабильной ЭСС, чем выживание через скрытность.

Looks like @discord messed up, ruining (even retroactively!) many uploaded images: 1) they strip ICC profiles without color conversion, 2) they do low-quality lossy transcoding (q75 4:2:0 unoptimized libjpeg-turbo?), 3) recompressed images can be bigger than the originals. Ouch!

https://twitter.com/jonsneyers/status/1645139244183085057

Stripping ICC profiles without conversion is a very amateurish thing to do. It's like a music score copying machine that removes all clef symbols and key signatures, saying "you don't really need those symbols, all music is in C major and written in the G-clef, right?"

Transcoding uploaded images to q75 4:2:0 jpegs is also pretty bad. People use discord to share digital art, and until now they could share high-quality images as long as they're under 8 MB. Now those images lose a lot of quality, and not just the preview thumbnails. Very sad!

@jonsneyers @discord If this is in response to acropalypse it’s a bit heavy handed, seeing as you could literally just truncate the file to fix it without re-encoding at all…

That said, now I’m wondering if they never stripped GPS EXIF before ????

@nucknyan @jonsneyers If they were serving the trailing "garbage", they certainly weren't running any content-aware processing on it like stripping EXIF tags. Let's just say there's a _reason_ I turned off the GPS EXIF embedding in my phone's settings...

https://twitter.com/jonsneyers/status/1645499619567341568

@aapur @discord The ICC stripping is happening with both jpeg and png, but the lossy transcode only with jpeg. The pixel data of png files gets recompressed losslessly, and optimized png files can easily get larger in the process.

Many people seem very confused about the new color spaces in CSS so here’s the quick summary:

HSL is a polar form of sRGB, LCH is a polar form of Lab, and Oklch a polar form of Oklab.

[1/3]



Lea Verou (@LeaVerou) 2023-04-11 01:04:37 (UTC)

https://twitter.com/LeaVerou/status/1645593661600673795

Polar forms are generally easier for humans because they more closely match how we think about color (hue, vividness, lightness).

[2/3]



Lea Verou (@LeaVerou) 2023-04-11 01:04:37 (UTC)

https://twitter.com/LeaVerou/status/1645593664603799554

Oklab/Oklch are improved versions of Lab/LCH. They have all benefits of their predecessors but improved perceptual uniformity & hue linearity, especially around blues.

[3/3]



Lea Verou (@LeaVerou) 2023-04-11 01:04:38 (UTC)

https://twitter.com/LeaVerou/status/1645593667464228867

So why use Lab/LCH at all? Oklab/Oklch are newer and less tested (though spreading super fast). Lab/LCH have 47 years of legacy, ie greater compatibility.

@LeaVerou And when OKLCH is tested, some very interesting test results emerge, such as https://github.com/LeaVerou/color.js/issues/81#issuecomment-1216715181 for example.

Defensive patents were necessary for AV1 to not be hobbled / stopped by legal challenges from MPEG et al.

Does anyone know the origin of "mahou shoujo"?
Animage Aug. 1986 issue says that
1. "Majokko" are magical girls who have magical origins.
2. "Mahou shoujo" are ordinary girls who happened to gain magical powers.

However, we cannot say such a definition was shared in the industry







ehoba (@htGOIW) 2023-04-16 10:32:13 (UTC)

https://twitter.com/htGOIW/status/1647548445027348480

We can't say it's true because Pierrot themselves released an OVA under the name of "Majokko Club."

I thought someone already summarized such a history, but google and twitter seach didin't give me a good answer.





ehoba (@htGOIW) 2023-04-16 10:32:16 (UTC)

https://twitter.com/htGOIW/status/1647548456565886976

As far as I understand, they still called it "Mahou Series" at the time of Fashion Lala.
At the time of Fancy Lala, the term "Mahou Shoujo Series" appears on some media. But maybe I'm wrong. Some older series might be called Mahou Shoujo.





ehoba (@htGOIW) 2023-04-16 10:32:17 (UTC)

https://twitter.com/htGOIW/status/1647548460105879553

To sum it up, the term Mahou Shoujo appeared in some '80s titles and articles, but it looks like it was not fully recognized as a genre name. Pierrot Mahou Shoujo brand was established in the '90s, but it's just a brand name. When did it become a genre name?



ehoba (@htGOIW) 2023-04-16 10:32:19 (UTC)

https://twitter.com/htGOIW/status/1647548469450784774

Some say it started with Lyrical Nanoha, but that's doubtful. Tenchi Muyo series released Mahou Shoujo Pretty Sammy in the middle '90s, and there was Mahou Shoujo Ai in 2001 too.
Triangle Heart 3 is a pretty old game. I'm not sure how influential it was before the anime.





Microbry (@microbry) 2023-04-18 07:47:23 (UTC)

https://twitter.com/microbry/status/1648231738584477699

@htGOIW The Japanese Wikipedia entry on 魔法少女 says that Toei registered 魔女っ子 as a  trademark in 2003 which reduced the ability of others to use the term.  I would suspect that's when the change occured.



ehoba (@htGOIW) 2023-04-18 07:57:26 (UTC)

https://twitter.com/htGOIW/status/1648234267670089728

@microbry That's a different issue. As I showed in the thread, examples like Pretty Sammy suggest that "mahou shoujo" became a common noun in the '90s. My question here is what was the culture setter.



ehoba (@htGOIW) 2023-04-18 07:59:20 (UTC)

https://twitter.com/htGOIW/status/1648234746374402049

@microbry There are several possibilities:
A: Pierrot made it common already in the '80s (I didn't find such a proof.)

B: Pierrot's brand name after Fancy Lala.

C: Pretty Sammy

D: People came to use the term in the '90s without a particular reason.



ehoba (@htGOIW) 2023-04-18 10:11:32 (UTC)

https://twitter.com/htGOIW/status/1648268015509860352

@microbry At least, Pretty Sammy has lines like "You're a mahou shoujo" without explanations.
And it is true that Fancy Lala was released as "Pierrot Mahou Shoujo Series 15th Anniversary."



ehoba (@htGOIW) 2023-04-18 10:12:59 (UTC)

https://twitter.com/htGOIW/status/1648268379558670336

@microbry Plus, some eroge like Lyrical Omochabako or Mahou Shoujo Ai used the term "mahou shoujo" in 2001. It was a common noun in the late '90s at latest.

Вчера смотрел на Ютубе как целый кандидат физ.-мат. наук, стипендиат "Династии", 40 минут объясняет опыт Юнга влиянием датчиков на фотоны. Типа, чтобы измерить через какую щель пролетает фотон, с ним надо как-то провзаимодействовать и за счет этого поменяется его поведение.

Но, 1) даже если установить датчик у одной щели, фотон не покажет интерференцию пролетая через другую щель. 2) Влиянием датчиков невозможно объяснить эффект квантового стирания. 3) можно использовать пассивный датчик, например улавливая тепло, излучаемое нагретыми частицами.

Google and Chrome can go screw themselves rotten with their WebP image format.

Photoshop — the world’s most popular designer app — doesn’t even recognise the format, meaning I have to then go onto an ad-infested converter site so it can turn rightfully back into a PNG.

Peeping Nabbit:

In the Switch version of New Super Mario Bros U, Nintendo added Nabbit into the final cutscene, peeping on Mario getting his smooch from the Princess. What a perv. Here's some more random NSMB series trivia: http://youtube.com/watch?v=1IxZ_UWqo4A

I wonder how different PNGs would be if the filter method was specified before hand, outside of the compressed data.

You could know in advance which scanlines need to be preserved for future filters.

And while I'm at it, I wonder about filters on partial scanlines.

https://twitter.com/jonsneyers/status/1655804158568460288

@ProgramMax JPEG XL effectively does that: the filters are part of the context model (MA trees), which is signalled separately. Also it has tiling (so scanlines are never full, at least for images with large width), and also the x coordinate can influence the filter/predictor...

@ProgramMax Filtering is a minor issue in png. The main mistakes:
1. Red, green, blue and alpha bytes are encoded with the same entropy code.
2. LZ codes can copy 32 kB only
3. No 2d referencing. Very expensive just to copy a few pixels from the line above.
4. Byte-oriented LZ, not pixel.

https://twitter.com/jyzg/status/1655834751817711616

@ProgramMax 5. Entropy codes are changed one-dimensionally, but entropy in the image changes in 2d.
6. No way to reuse a previous entropy code, have to resend it (~70 bytes) at switch time.
7. Filters are changed per line, not for 2d areas.
8. Line filter bytes mixed into image entropy.

https://twitter.com/jyzg/status/1655835400315850753

@ProgramMax 9. Paeth, the only non-linear predictor can use different neighboring pixels for red, green, blue, and alpha, adding combinations that hinder LZ, in comparison to making one selection decision per pixel. The same pixel can get 16 variations depending the neighbourhood.

@ProgramMax I fixed all these and more 11 years ago in WebP lossless, and JPEG XL adds even more density efficiency techniques.

On this day in 1985, the Philadelphia police dropped a bomb on a West Philly neighborhood, specifically on the house of a Black liberation group called MOVE, ki!!ing 11 members, including 5 children, destroying 61 homes and leaving 250 people homeless.

The same day the bombing took place the police were sent to the MOVE house to arrest 4 members. When those inside the house refused to respond, the authorities decided to take extreme measures,  justifying the use of military grade weapons, despite knowledge of children present.

500 police officers fired 10,000 rounds of ammunition at the house. The police commissioner then ordered to bomb the house, with a helicopter dropping a satchel bomb, typically used in combat, onto the roof. After detonation, they let the fire spread throughout the neighborhood.

«Тербий был переименован в эрбий после 1860 года, а эрбий в тербий — в 1877 году».

@aldragon_net Там в той же компании есть ещё иттербий и иттрий. Все четыре элемента названы в честь деревушки "иттербю", возле которой был найден минерал, в котором они все и были обнаружены.

Дубний — назван в честь наукограда Дубна.

Московий (не путать с Элериумом-115) — назван в честь Московской области (sic!), в которой находится наукоград Дубна.

Рутений — в честь России. В которой, очевидно, находится Московская область...

Теллур — в честь Земли. Ну вы поняли.

In Bakhmut a restaurant owner and 60,000 convicts destroyed an army that NATO trained for 9 years. Reminds me of the farmers in sandals that kicked the US out of Afghanistan. The US Govt spends a trillion dollars >per year< on a military that can’t win anything. What a waste.

Trump Tried to Steal the Vote in Georgia in 2020. Now Election Deniers Run Georgia's Election System

Ari Berman, the voting rights correspondent for Mother Jones, details how pro-Trump forces may try to throw out the results of the 2024 election if Kamala Harris wins, with a focus on the swing state of Georgia, the “epicenter” of Trump’s failed efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. “It’s very dangerous to imagine what people who don’t believe in free and fair elections can do when given the power to oversee those very elections,” says Berman.

'Boss claims that me quitting will result in the business closing': Worker gives 2-week-notice after basically running the company they work for for their boss, prompting boss's total meltdown

It is truly mind-boggling how some employers will treat the workers who are essential to the success and operation of their business. They gamble that they can pay them below market rates and keep them exactly where they are and that their workers will continue to be milked like the cash cow that they are… After taking on increasing responsibility in their boss's small business, this worker knew it was time to move on to greener pastures. They did what they thought was the right thing and gave their boss their two-week notice, prompting a meltdown that they could not have anticipated. 

As commenters in the original thread noted, this begs so many questions. Like, if they were so important to the business why didn't their boss recognize that and reward them for it? Surely, there were chances and opportunities for their boss to give them a promotion or even a partnership in the business that they were so essential to. Still, their boss's general laissez-faire attitude and seeming reluctance to lift a finger to support their own business has spelled their own doom. It seems that they were totally complacent and happy to let the employee do all the work while they raked in all the profits.
