Is it bad for your eyes? How does looking at an extra bright screen compare to looking at white paper in sunlight? I can imagine it is no problem to eyes adapted to the sun, but maybe there is a difference between emitted light and reflected light?
And do you think it is safe to the screen? I heard that the screen will throttle itself at low-level when overheating anyway. (Edit: saw you answered it somewhere else in the thread!)
Really excited to do a bit of coding in the garden now, but I'm worried for my eyes and my new MBP :-D
- alin23 5y agoIn terms of the amount of light going into your eyes, my intuition says that you’re getting more nits from a white sheet of paper than from a dark screen with white text (in direct sunlight) But staring into that light for a long time will tire your eyes no matter if it’s reflected or projected.
