💁🏻♀️ TIL: 👓🌈 #Beijing Institute of #Technology researchers built an add-on layer that lets a pair of eyeglasses show #infrared #light as color, something human #eyes are blind to because each infrared photon is too weak to trigger a single retinal cell.

Good morning Fedi friends & it is a good morning after a nearly 8hr solid sleep in my own snuggly comfortable bed & knowing I’m home for 2 weeks - yaaay. I could have happily stayed in bed, but once I’m awake - I’m up. It was 2c when I woke up at just after 6am & while rain is forecast, it’s for later in the day & should reach 14c. No frost here either.
I would like to do an exercise class as I’ve been missing them but I need to ring my optometrist as soon as I’m showered to see if I can get in this morning - eyelashes again. I’m supposed to be catching up with my daughter as well, but I’ve heard nothing so far. I’ll wait & see.
Wishing you all a fabulous #Monday, have a good one & keep warm out there. #Weather #AussieWinter #Eyes #Family. -

Every Face Is Doing Something
A viral post claims the West never once produced the Buddha's expression across twenty-five centuries of art. The claim collapses in the first wing of any decent museum, and the thing that killed it spent thirty-five years walking through Janna's ASL classrooms. There is a post moving through social media that stakes an entire theory of civilization on one face. Every Buddha statue, it observes, from Thailand to Japan to China to Tibet to India, wears one expression: lids lowered a few degrees, the corners of the mouth lifted by a hair. The styles vary by country and by century while the face holds steady. The post rules out the easy readings, smile and peace both, and names the look "the absence of wanting." Western religious art, the argument continues, produced this expression at no point in twenty-five hundred years. Michelangelo's Last Judgment strains, Bernini's Teresa swoons, every Annunciation leans toward its angel. Western faces reach; the Buddha's face has stopped reaching; and that difference, the post concludes, compresses the whole philosophical quarrel between East and West into a single expression. It closes with a slogan engineered for the share button: "your face is where you are." […]https://bolesblogs.com/2026/07/28/every-face-is-doing-something/

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🐟🕳️ Scientists have described a new eyeless #cavefish species from an #Alabama #cave naming it after the #Demogorgon from #StrangerThings.
The #fish lacks #eyes and pigmentation living in complete darkness with specialized senses for its #underground #habitat. Researchers emphasize the species extreme rarity and vulnerability to groundwater #pollution.

What is GLASS?
GLASS is tough and often stands guard within a frame,
Like as a window, or fronting a picture,
Or focussing our gaze, when our eyes are not the same.
And I often see through you, unless disguised by your coating,
Put on to dull your amorphous transparent mixture,
Of soda, silica, limestone and ‘fancier’ bits, you often say when gloating.
And it is obsidian to say that you can’t be naturally found,
A universal secret without human intervention.
And your boast about rapid cooling makes my heart pound,
For when you were made, you were just too hot to handle,
Making parched lungs wait, for when you were of malleable intention,
Else creating such strange objects, as if made by a mischievous vandal.
Yet, I am overwhelmed by the stresses that you quietly hide
Within your new shape or moulded design,
Made whilst gooey like molten plastic, where no animal can abide.
Which makes for great fun when a glass animal is ‘born’
And you see its wonders in detail and colours and lines
Made by us humans, as we’ve been doing since time’s early dawn.
As an art, you are an object of delight in many ways,
Mimicking nature, abstract designs and useful objects to name a few.
Modern buildings tease out new conceptual uses for your display,
Fish swim within your bounds, whilst plants bathe in wind-less sunshine.
You also protect and make for easy cleaning – for us to enjoy a safer view
From the sky, or on the water, where we can watch the world as we dine.
Broken items can be accidental, and there is none more dangerous than glass,
With your warped sharp edges and shards that can stick you like a pin.
But no blame to you, as QA have given you a solid ‘pass’.
Your character can even be changed, by material science at its best,
To make you stronger, withstand heat and shock, and be made ultra-thin.
But I wish that people knew you better,
As you hide your magical form . . . when you are squeaky clean.

Evolution doesn't really make new things; it changes existing things to new forms. This is the reasons for many of our body's issues. Compromises that worked well enough for survival, but are far from free of problems. Case in point - our eyes.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🦈👁️ #Greenland sharks can live for 400 years and scientists long thought they were functionally blind.
A new study shows these #sharks may retain useful vision thanks to a #DNA repair mechanism that protects their retinas from age-related damage. The work could inform #research on age-related vision loss in #humans.
