Maybe you can make an NFT of them...

Few things are as useless as watching TV and playing video games. Especially when you're young, the world is your oyster, you should hang out with friends and do things in the real world. Yes, playing video games occasionally with frie

I don't know who's right but I certainly hope that an open letter won't affect the decision.

That seems like an incredibly cheap feature. The mouse pointer png probably costs a lot more than the shake detector.

Does that include the lobbyist's cut, or would you go directly to the MP? But how much do you really gain from buying a single MP?

In Sweden they do the opposite, they have half a dozen parties with almost identical politics. Also very effective.

Just like people stopped using google and facebook because they also scan for CSAM?

Since the threshold is 30 images, and those images are matched to a curated database of abusive material, what you write here simply doesn't apply.

The NFTs would of course only be able to validate themselves, not the physical paintings.

Of course they walk, it's in the name! Seriously speaking, very cool stuff.

Infinite? Not at all, we’re talking about identifying absolute frequencies here, not just telling them apart. For sound I’d say it’s less than five, for colour perhaps a dozen.

There is no "fail", it's just a matter of how many colours one can distinguish, vs how many absolute tone frequencies.
917.
by Grustaf 5y ago
"bass, baritone, tenor or soprano", that's only four categories, that's much less than 10. And I would guess that timbre will play in here as well, since the human voice is pretty restricted. A bass is not just a frequen

Sure, it's complex, but the basic point still stands. Most people will probably be able to accurately identify 10-20 different colours, if we fix the luminosity etc and they are given cards with each colour. When it comes to sound thou

Sure, but we are still talking about bands of _frequencies_, not sets of harmonics (although there are colours that are not pure). So it would correspond to identifying 440 Hz with a tolerance of N Hz. And we are not talking about colour na

by Grustaf 5y ago
I mean you can easily identify 5-10 absolute colour frequencies, but how many can identify even a single absolute tone? Ordering things in relative order isn't very relevant to this discussion I think, since the point was about the dif

by Grustaf 5y ago
It's not though, red and blue have specific frequencies, just like a 440 Hz sine has.

I know what timbre is, that's my point. The difference between a violin and a piano is not about frequency.

> Almost anybody can say "That was a violin" or "That was a female voice" or "That was a guitar" with basic training. That's about timbre, not pitch.

Without having read the link, one obvious answer is that colour vision helps us tell what plants are ripe, but detecting absolute frequencies probably has little survival value.

by Grustaf 5y ago
Brightness is not related to colours, and while colours are "relative" in the sense that colour perception is influenced by context, it's still the case that you can accurately identify lots of colours in an absolute sense, g

That is great but are they returning because it's engaging, or because their parents told them to?
