Bro was TWEAKING

This study led by University of Central Florida found that Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder symptoms manifest watching videos requiring executive brain function

Man turns on 20000 watt light bulb

Fascinating🔥🔥🔥

The limits of human attention

Research has shown that well-lit environments can enhance focus and concentration. Adequate lighting reduces eye strain, allowing for increased attention span and improved performance on cognitive tasks. Poor lighting, such as dim or flickering lights, can induce visual fatigue and headaches. Inadequate lighting can also result in drowsiness and decreased alertness, hindering cognitive performance.

Which square do you see most clearly: orange or yellow? Normally yellow is the most visible colour: it grabs our attention and we can see it from far away. Hence warning signs, high-vis jackets, road markings, police tape, school buses, and taxis are almost always yellow. But yellow isn't always the most visible colour. See, orange is *more visible* in one specific context: when it is contrasted with blue. That's because orange and blue are complementary colours. This means that, when mixed, they cancel each other out. But, when placed alongside one another, they create a powerful, luminous, highly visible contrast. And this fact is important because... lots of the world is blue: the sky and the ocean. Hence lifeboats and lifebuoys and liferafts all around the world are orange — rather than yellow, the usual colour of safety equipment. If you pay attention, you'll notice that most objects relating to safety and caution around the ocean are, indeed, orange. It's why the Golden Gate Bridge was painted orange — a particular shade which has come to be known as "International Orange" — so that it would stand out more clearly against the water and in heavy fog. And it's also why astronauts wear orange suits during lift-off and ascent, and when they return to Earth; this makes them much easier to spot if they land in the ocean. The "black box" recording device in aeroplanes is not actually black; they are legally required to be painted bright orange because that makes them much easier to find when planes go down over water. The fact that orange and blue are complementary colours was also exploited by the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artists of the late 19th century. Think of Vincent van Gogh's Starry Night or Café Terrace at Night, in which he contrasted oranges and blues to create his famously vivid swirls of colour and light. Claude Monet, too, in his paintings of Haystacks and of Venice, frequently used the complementary contrast between orange and blue because of the clarity and luminosity they produced. Many things in the world are a coincidence, but the fact that lifeboats, space suits, the paintings of Vincent van Gogh, and the Golden Gate Bridge are all orange is not one of them.

This is an egg candling machine. The ones that show a lot of light have stopped developing and need to be removed to avoid spreading bacteria to the nearby ones that are still viable.

Nah that lil dude must be a paid actor

“They laughed at me in 1897 when I told them about the cosmic ray. Fifty years ago they attempted to discredit my discovery of the rotating magnetic field and my system of power transmission by alternating currents. They called me crazy when I predicted the radio and when I sent the first impulse around the world they said it couldn’t be done.” –Nikola Tesla “In the Realm of Science: Tesla, Who Predicted Radio, Now Looks Forward to Sending Waves to the Moon.” New York Herald Tribune, August 22, 1937. #NikolaTesla #electricity #rotatingmagneticfield #Tesla #history
