Lionel Hutz: Mr. Simpson, this is the most blatant case of fraudulent advertising since my suit against the film, “The Never-Ending Story”
The guy on the left is so lazy he can’t even stand up straight to make his point. You got time to lean, you got time to suck cock buddy!
4k80 has issues. It’s been harder for them to track down good prints and get the color correction right: https://www.thestarwarstrilogy.com/project-4k80/
My pleasure, I’m always down for nerding out on stuff like this.
Another fun example of the early visual processing is feature detection. The parallel processing allows us to instantly find a green square in a sea of red squares, as it jumps out at you.
But when you combine multiple independent features together (find the green square in a sea of red and green squares and circles) now we have to tediously look around the whole image. That integration of multiple features forces the work higher up in the visual system and takes more time, attention, and effort. Thats why Where’s Waldo is hard.
Psychophysics is the study of the relationship between stimuli and perception. A lot of it is perceptual thresholds, so how much sound or light is needed for someone to hear or see something (fun fact: people can reliably detect a single photon in a dark room at better than chance). Thus much of the experimental protocols boil down to asking “can you hear this?” after playing a sound which is what the Verizon ads always made me think of.
The other half of the discipline is figuring out the wiring on low level perception. For instance we have massive parallel processing in the early visual system that does things like highlight lines and edges, which is what makes the Mach dot/band illusions work:

It’s what I studied in undergrad as it was a nice overlap in my interests in cognitive science, psychology and computer science. I basically just like knowing how everything works :)

Reminds me of reading the print version of Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace, where you needed one bookmark for the novel and another for the endnotes, which made up like 20% of the book. Hopefully e-readers make that easier now.
Did they check in the ball pit?
We’d like you to be “agile” by following these very specific and rigid set of rules and procedures.
Any particular ones you recommend?
Brotato as a mindless standby.
Hogwarts Legacy is running pretty damn well, as did Cyberpunk 2077.

Sorry I’ll use a different name next time.
They’re deeply troubled that it got out.
Scientists: we can’t understand why global warming is so much worse than our models predicted!!
