Color perception is a dynamic, personal experience not captured by any color wheel or color chart
1) 20% of men are red/green color deficient.
2) the surrounding color can change the perceived color of the center

The Ultimate Antidote to Toxic Behavior Online
Changing your perception and withholding your attention are great ways of regaining control over online abuse.

My son worked for a company that replaced its human tutors with an AI. I have to believe that many of the students being tutored are using AI to generate their essays.

Very efficient

it's a bad day for the international network of dictators who live in similar palaces
🇸🇾👀 Syrian rebels have entered Assad's palace in Damascus. What Russia has been building in this country for almost 10 years has been destroyed.
‼️ This morning, the rebels announced the beginning of a new era. People in Syria are celebrating in the streets.
