The closer they are to the focal plane the more they show on the final image. Hence having a scratched rear element is going to affect image quality.

You'd run into diffraction limit for any reasonable pixel size long before the pinhole diameter gets smaller than the wavelength of visible light. The rest of your comment I fully agree with.

I use the term loosely in reference to all types of anaemia arising from cobalamin deficiency, as the NIH and Mayo clinic do[0][1]. After all, lack of IF is only one of the many causes and the symptoms are similar regardless of aetiology. [

When Indians who follow a strict vegan diet started migrating to the western world, a lot of them would begin to suffer from pernicious amaemia, a disease caused by deficiency of dietary vitamin B12. Similar diseases are present in India bu

It's quite possible. There is mounting evidence showing that higher atomspheric CO2 leads to loss of protein and certain micronutrients in both crops[0] and wild plants[1], and it wouldn't be a stretch to think the same thing is h

Well said, the shortcomings of EMEM and its variants are pretty well known. The only reason they have not been phased out seems to have more things to do with cost and institutional inertia. Microbiology used to be in a similar place not ve

CIG's own legal argument is that they have already shipped the game in the form of 3.0 alpha, thus the ToS was amended to forbid any refund beyond the basic cooling off period following purchase. Challeges has so far not been successfu
