    • @TheAndreArtus
      @TheAndreArtus 6 років тому +13

      Do you mean flowers? Fruit are a late stage result of already successful pollination.
      The perception of colour is partly a mental construct, so it's going to be difficult to determine how bees perceive the variations in wavelengths. It is known however that bees are sensitive to a range of wavelengths about as wide as ours, but shifted towards blue. That is, they are not so sensitive to red, but are more sensitive to blue and are even sensitive well into ultraviolet.

    I intentionally do not sustain eye contact while conversing with others as I cannot process auditory and visual information very well at the same time. I've found it easier to listen and develop a deeper understanding during conversations with people if I gaze down or away. I find it liberating.

    • @blindsoul7915

      It is especially logical to cut down on eye contact. It does indeed allow for deeper discussion, focusing your energy on analyzing the substance of what is being said. It has been proven that people engaged in mainstream communication barely pay attention to the actual words. This is just another one of the reasons why people of intellectual abilities are often overlooked.
      The fact remains - rocket science was never conveyed through eye contact alone.

      2) Gamers are more statictically dumbified by marketing, to make them purchase pricey gadgets that makes no difference.

    He missed that ripe fruit is red because it is maximally contrasted (according to color theory) by the green in the environment. Meaning frugivores would be more likely to spot the fruit, thus spread the seeds and thus drive the selection engine further towards red ripened fruit. That evolving in us is also related to why we think of red as cautionary because we instantly take notice, and women and car manufacturers sometimes capitalize on that effect.

      Hello fellow UA-camr, I hope all is well. First, I want to lay a foundation and say that I AGREE with what the Great Jordan Peterson has said and what you have said. Your comment caught my attention because you mentioned the red/green dynamic. When Peterson mentioned fruit, and again when I read this post, I thought
      'okay, but what about bananas? When bananas are not "of age", they are green, and when they are ripe, they are yellow.'
      Not every fruit is red. Perhaps this is solely based on the eye of the beholder; that whatever is eating the fruit determines the color of the fruit, that is, maybe if given enough time to evolve, bananas would become red when ripe as well?
      So my question is: are there other factors at play, or is this "positive feedback loop" the only sort of "driving force" of evolution? If there are other factors in the mix, what might those be?

    • @mattdoesflyfishing
      @mattdoesflyfishing 4 роки тому

      Yes, I can agree with this except that blood is red due to hemoglobin. There are plenty of vertebrates with red blood that do not have the same ocular triggers as we do to red. My uniformed guess is that the relationship between blood color and that of ripe fruit is likely a coincidence.

      @@mattdoesflyfishing yes clearly the color of blood is not dependent on the color of fruit, but the reverse is what I'm arguing. So, given that hemoglobin evolved as an efficient transporter of oxygen, and as a byproduct makes the blood red, animal neurology has special alert systems to the color red. This seems evident to me. Now the assertion is that fruits took advantage of that by evolving to be red when ready to be consumed, thus hijacking the primitive alert system

There are other colors of banana than yellow though, including yes red, brown, and even blue - look at that. The reasons are probably pretty complex and varied and not only to do with detection by the consumer but also in the benefits conferred by different pigment molecules themselves, which can protect against oxidation, and predation by insects.

    The reason that fruit evolved towards a red color to indicate ripeness is that red is the color that stands out most against the predominantly green and yellow-green background of grassland and forests, where angiosperms (flower and fruit-growing plants) evolved. So it's an eye-catching color, signalling that the fruit is ready to be eaten so the plant's seeds will be dispersed.

And its no coincidence that that 60 hertz is the frequency of most AC electrical circuits (those used in your home, work etc) as the alternating of the current coincides with the maximum frame rate. The power supply for a monitor to display a higher frame rate must be altered from the standard 60hz to be achieved. You can render 144 frames on your video card even with a 60 hertz monitor, but the monitor will only display 60fps.

      Lower FPS adds lots of milliseconds to the reaction time between seen something in the screen and reacting with the mouse or keyboard. For 144 FPS is only 6.94ms, for "cinematic" 30 FPS is 33.33ms. A regular TV in gaming mode or cheap monitor adds another ~28ms, meanwhile a good gaming monitor adds only ~5ms, and a CRT 0ms.
      The CRT would look like the best option, but they blurry small details negating higher resolution advantages and their refresh rate at high resolutions hardly reaches 80Hz, so in the end you have a total latency quite similar to gaming monitors at 144FPS.

      Experiments have shown that, although we can't make out individual frames above about 255fps(when alternating between actual footage and black frames I think it was), Fluidity of motion and such might still be improved by higher frame rate up until 1000fps, and that is before adrenaline. Unfortunately I doubt that they are going to expose people to high levels of adrenaline for an fps experiment considering health risks, though it would be interesting. One of the few times I've heard Peterson make a mistake. To be fair though this is a very old video, there is still lots of misinformation, higher frame rates have only recently become possible, and many of the studies are from the last couple years.

He doesn't strike me as a person who relies on a textbook to teach, nor somebody who plans ways to teach his students (not to offend him, but he's really a one-trick pony when it comes to how he delivers information, if you had trouble taking in aural information you'd struggle in his classes). He's just a man who is really interested in what he learns about and can talk about it with enthusiasm.

      What you have commented reminds me of a Professor I had in college. He told us all at the beginning of the course that the textbook that was listed for the course (Basic Astronomy) was useful as a reference, but we would not be using it for the coursework ( the book was awesome) - we were simply required to write down in our notebooks whatever he put on the chalkboard. Our notebooks were turned in for examination for the two midterm exams - I aced both, and the final was solely a written exam. Even though I was late for the final exam by 15 minutes, I got a 4.0 for the course. I didn't even have to take the final, He said that he would simply base my grade on my two midterms alone. Naturally, I agreed right away. I was on my way home 5 minutes later with a smile on my face. I don't often get that kind of respect and it was very gratifying.

      AFAICS the answer is oversampling. 144 frames which are blurred together (downsampled) by our slower perception feels more complete than 60 frames, in which the computer-generated nature of the images becomes more obvious.
      The updatedness probably also varies according to where a particular element falls in your field of vision. The centre is likely the closest to realtime.

    2:28 He's wrong about the 60hz thing. You see faster out of your peripheral vision. Say you have something you can't see is flickering at say 60hz when you look directly at it (I do and I think most do) when you avert your eyes so you only see it out of the corner of your eye you will notice the flicker more or will start to see the flicker. The peripheral vision is low resolution but faster because that's better for detecting motion quickly so you can react to it. For example with a CRT screen running at 60hz when I look at it through my peripheral vision I can actually see the effect of the ray gun moving down the screen over and over.

I fact, I think before we had electronic displays like that, they did experiments with film and decided human vision only detected 12 fps, but due to problems with displaying it, it of course looked smoother at higher frequencies like it does now.

      Your eyes, optical nerves and brain simply cannot process beyond 60hz.
      Your peripheral vision is part of the brains hierarchical processing structure so while the vision system cannot process beyond 60hz constructive aspects of brain development create abstract models that allow reactions to take place.
      So in other words your brain can calculate danger with the small amount of information as it recognises various patterns. Your brain can do this in other ways as well such are recognising a person without actually seeing the whole face.
      Our brains are a series of models built from our experiences combined with natural architecture.

    The "Yellow Apple" was a symbol used both in Greek myth and Christian belief-- and could oddly refer to early Tomatoes, which were first cultivated as a small, yellow species. Either way, I always thought the metaphor of the apple or tomato seemed to indicate that once you find something more exciting in life (the sharp, pleasurable experience of a ripe fruit bursting in your mouth) then you'll need to find new excitements. Then you're cast into a hellish existence of working to satisfy your basic desires to the point that you can't even prevent your two sons from killing each other.

In games where the best strategy is to rush in and conquer, then red usually wins. And if the best strategy is to think about how to organize and what objectives to pursue, and it becomes important to not just rush in, then blue usually wins.

That said, many people will be able to tell a faster refresh rate display from a slower one even past that.

      That 1ms display being seen is not from the brain being able to handle 1000 frames a second, though. That's from visual burn holdover, nothing more. If a movie is shown to us at 1000 frames a second, I guarantee it will be a giant blur and only fragments get through.

      Not entirly correct. That means that our brain perceives a 1/1000th of a second flicker in a static image. If you had the equipment to display any 1000 frames per second film, you would see a smooth as butter movie. The only difference between that and real life would likely be the resolution of the movie.
      It wouldn't "blur" any more than our current perception of a real object in motion blurs (like a car moving down the street).

      We can't see the difference for still images if it's 60hz or above. We can't comprehend every frame above 60hz. But we can easily tell the difference between 60hz and 240hz simply because of the motion blur and screen tearing. At 120hz the small number of frames we comprehend each second are less distorted and respond quicker.

      Ian Gifford yes, but sadly many people mock enthusiasm. We need more Petersons.

    Red catches the eye faster than others. It can be mostly shocking, because of blood and association with danger, but that association is done by advertisement and red traffic lights and danger signs. But otherwise, it's just that our minds are attracted by it easily. It's used in eye movement in compositions in art. It's warm, like fire and in the warm color family, yellows, oranges, pinks (kind of)... so also relates to emotional, sexual attraction. You put some colors on paper and RED catches you first mostly, but it can be designed to catch even last, if you compose and place your colors differently

    I really liked what he was talking about, i was very focused throughout the whole video. Then the girl was shown at about 08:15 and, without directly noticing, his words reached my ear, but i had no idea what he was talking about. Interesting how quickly vision and subconsciousness take over.
