  2. Spotted this ten years ago, stuck to a payphone enclosure in one of my favorite cities, Troy, NY (The Collar City!). Whenever I see it, it gives me pleasure that someone shared a thought so lovely with the world.

    Troy *is* beautiful.
    You *are* beautiful.

  3. . @troy_s a few minutes in, and I'm already wondering out loud how they got those blacks in a shot like that...

  5. @troy_s

    So from the rough example math in the previous, with #f00, the L cone is receiving 3.5 times more than M.

    With the grey, L receives 1.33 times more than M (L cones are more populous).

    With the grey, the ganglion cells are switched to where the signal is sent to light/dark.

    With the red #f00, the L gets 26% more luminance than the grey, and also L is not really competing with M as here, L is getting 71% more than M.

    Point: there are clearly a number of places where the physiology favors a vibrant red vs a grey of same luminance.

  6. @troy_s

    Okay, so in the normal eye, there are more L cones than any other. Stim the L cones only, with the L cones making up the majority of the luminance signal (with L cone peak being a greenish yellow).

    And meanwhile the S cones are not contributors to the luminance channel (any luminance from the display blue primary is due to the stim of the M and L cones).

    The sRGB red primary creates about 21% luminance.

    The first image is a neutral grey of 21% luminance #868686 against #f00 .(equal Ys, 0 C vs red 104 C)

    The second image is #f00 v #860000 (Lc25)

    The third is #009494 vs #f00
    (equal Ys — 33 C v 104 C)

    The 4th is #d11 v #06f
    (equal Ys & equal chroma)

    Note: Ys is "screen luminance"

    ----
    Some very rough calcs:

    #f00 mostly stims L cone to Ys=21.3%

    #868686, the values are
    R Ys= 4.5
    G Ys=15.3
    B Ys= 1.5

    So #f00
    L 16.6%
    M 4.7%
    L gets 3.5 x more than M

    #868686
    R
    L cone 3.5%
    M gets 1.0%,

    G & B
    Remaining 16.8%:
    L 9.7%
    M 8.9%
    =
    L for the Grey 13.2%
    M for the Grey 9.9%

    L 1.33 more than M

  7. @troy
    The funny thing about all of this is how much the general thoosie population shamed those of us that saw the merger as an absolutely horrible thing. Some of us called all of this bullshit from the first mention of the merger. Less competition is never good for the consumer (no matter how many parks your pass gets you into).

  8. Troy Martin gives his opinion of Hewlett Packard Enterprise's acquisition of networking giant Juniper Networks. His article provides analysis on how this strategic move could enhance HPE's portfolio, particularly in the areas of networking, security, and edge computing. It also speculates on the potential market implications and how the acquisition aligns with HPE's broader business objectives.

  9. Troy weight is a system of units of mass that originated in 15th-century England, used in precious metals. Units include the grain, the pennyweight (24 grains), the troy ounce (20 pennyweights), and the troy pound (12 troy ounces). A troy ounce (oz t) equals exactly 31.1034768 grams. Here’s how big a troy ounce of common metals is.
