'A lot of people' here being 'Many American men, in engineering / programming who are often unaware'. A lot of the women I have worked with (in dev/engineers)

'A lot of people' here being 'Many American men, in engineering / programming who are often unaware'. A lot of the women I have worked with (in dev/engineers) notice and are annoyed by this kind of mis-match. Working in Europe, also most colleagues (men and women) noticed, and made fun of, companies/ stores / restaurants that were too unaware or cheap to notice the problem or fix it.
Light is the prime inputs to human sensing their world! It amazes me people can be so unaware of lighting conditions / problems, when that is how they do a vast majority of these sensing of the world.

- sam_bristow 4y agoEven ignoring the higher prevalence of colour blindness in males, it's pretty widely understood that females have better colour perception. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21675035/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21675035/ https://www.nature.com/articles/s41599-019-0341-7 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41599-019-0341-7
- thrashh 4y agoOK… I know plenty of non-engineering people who can’t tell or bother either. And it’s not simply being aware or not. We aren’t all born with the same senses. I can spot extremely minute color variations on tests but I have never been able to tell small differences in smell no matter how much I try.
