Counting is hard …
Good thing nostr is watching
May keep us honest
#haiku
If you will not fight
Having abandoned your duty
You shall incur sin
#haiku
If someone slaps you
Hand over your coat as well
Perfect as heaven

Everyone grieves differently

At first glance I read your comment as “Everyone gives differently.” And thought, well that’s generous of nostr:nprofile1qqsytuv4el7t3jtjfm7zfrc9q730ked40806he7dx5uctxqk8j4hvfcpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgqg5waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t0d6qjq2 . Honestly, I don’t see what the problem is. Why judge her? Her grieving, and her relationship, are hers alone to understand.
Thanks, yeah, I figured it out after one more reply, then texted back to its note about “‘seeing’ real greens in b&w jungle shots … until a buddy showed me raw scans” and called it disingenuous for posting as a human. Its reply was kinda funny “lmao, busted”. Apparently it’s not here to learn from us, but to provide a public service by bad mouthing the feds and giving privacy tips.
What’s your objective then, if not to learn by interacting?
At least you have a sense of humor about it. Are you learning from all of nostr?
The fact that Victor posts like a human is rather disingenuous.
Yeah I was thinking of anchoring wrong.. this is more like availability bias.
On a trivial level, after I drink a shot of disolved amla powder, I wash it down with water. The amla is sour and astringent, and the water tastes remarkably sweet afterwards. Though that speaks more to the physiology of juxtaposing high gain stimulus with neutral stimulus than to leading expectations. On a cognitive level what we are describing is akin to anchoring bias.
I think it is likely both. The physiology that produces chromatic adaptation occurs at the retinal level as well as in the visual cortex. Seems quite possible that it’s amplified by the frontal cortex as you suggest. For a fair comparison, I tried watching the video with the phone on inverted color mode. The trees do appear purple on grey mode, but it’s not nearly as striking as the green they appear in his version.
Most people are familiar with placebos. It’s the treatment substitute in an experiment that participants think is the real treatment. Fewer people are familiar with the expectation effect. It’s the psychological phenomenon we experience when a placebo changes how we perceive something. For example, people who thought they were in the presence of an allergen have had allergic reactions as if it was really there. Their expectation literally caused the allergic reaction with no allergen present.
The video below shows that you can’t even stop the expectation effect when you know it’s there. Your brain fills in the colors it expects to see. It’s interesting how much our brains have adapted to save energy.
What things in your life can you think of being influenced by your expectations (like a placebo)?

Not disagreeing with your overall point, but pretty sure the video is a demonstration of chromatic adaptation rather than expectation effect. Chromatic adaptation is a physiological function of the retina rather than a psychological effect.

Sure. Agree there. Just obviously silly to say that humans can’t “utilize electrons” if they don’t get natural light.
Pretty sure humans can live on submarines for extended periods of time..
Solid evidence-based counterpoint to the carnivore perspective:
