Why the condescension? Did you even read the top comment in this thread? The whole point is yes, some people do in fact perceive black in that picture. Because color perception is relative.
I find it funny that the HN crowd is arguing over this, given how in our line of work, I'm sure many of us have looked at an image on several different devices and have seen different shades and colors. Someone's monitor might have a higher contrast setting than your smartphone. And you're condescending to someone for perceiving a color that isn't objectively there.

- bradleyjg 12y agoThe words 'really' and 'objectively' in your post give the reader the sense that you think what you see is the correct way of seeing things and anyone who perceives it differently is wrong and somehow lesser. Hope this helps.
