kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 12/07/2026Kirby "I have no mouth but I must scream" edition. Kirby already is a cosmic horror if you think about it, but I think with this he found his match. All those nightmares in Dreamland and nobody thought of doing this yet. 010
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 08/05/2026adorable cast, I like the result so far, looking forward to future improvements 000
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 07/05/2026ironically, randomized elections on average have optimal outcomes in terms of reflecting "the will of the people" - it's just that the resulting variance is also quite high 000
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 22/04/2026Blöderweise war diese Art von Strategie in anderen Kontexten offenbar erfolgreich. Idealerweise sollte Ukraine einen goldenen Schriftzug in seinem Namen auf das Land schreiben, so groß, dass man es aus dem Weltall sehen kann. Das könnte ihn vielleicht für fünf Minuten für Ukraine gegen putin stimmen 030

kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 07/04/2026Ich finde schon. Sieht wie ein normales Ohr aus. Ich seh keine offensichtlichen Artefakte 100
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 07/04/2026Ich bin mir sicher die würden KI ohne Skrupel verwenden, aber zumindest in diesem Bild seh ich keine Probleme mit den genannten Regionen. Sieht mir alles plausibel nach echtem Photo aus. 100
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 22/03/2026This looks like a nightmare. Not just the insanely claustrophobic houses, but also the absurdly enormously wide streets and the apparent lack of any actual infrastructure 020
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 22/03/2026Wait, Sign Language? Can you elaborate on that? That sounds amazing 040
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 06/03/2026Ihr habt die zweiteilige Antwort auf zwei verschiedene Posts geantwortet 010
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 23/02/2026Were you also the one who made channel playlists go antichronological by default and has actively avoided adding a "reverse order playback" button or equivalent? Because I think you deserve double that wage for that decision alone 010
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 15/02/2026but in US you only have two parties, so that shuffle has to be party-internal, with the tea party and Trumpism taking over GOP followed by the Bernie/AOC/Mamdani wing increasingly pressuring Dems 000
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 15/02/2026I think the US is going through a similar thing as parts of Europe right now: The "old guard" of parties is falling apart and a "new guard" is taking over. One that's much more polarized, with far right rising, following by progressives. In Europe, you get party swaps (see UK Reform/Greens) 100
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 15/02/2026favoring GOP in spite of Trump's unpopularity, making it a needlessly close race. (But also, it's way too early for these hypotheticals in the first place) Trump is incredibly unpopular but so are the dems. And Newsom is precisely the kind of dem that pulls down popularity atm, is my Interpretation. 110
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 15/02/2026(not from the US) isn't the electorate that participates in primaries very different from the ultimate electorate? I think his point in part is that, if newsom were winning the primaries, that'd end up being a very low turnout election relative to what it ought to be 220
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 12/02/2026Would love to see this - with Canada, Alaska, and perhaps Mexico included so especially the northern border could be naturalized too - with a population map for orientation 000
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 26/01/2026Yeah, exactly, It singles out purple. That's the whole issue for me. The mechanics it describes are fine, but they are at play regardless of what color you see, not specific to purple at all. Anyways, it's not that important. I just don't like overselling the common claim "purple is fake actually" 000
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 26/01/2026Morever, color interpretations of spectra aren't even stable. By just changing the surrounding context, you can easily shift somebody's perception of whether something is a bluish green or a greenish blue, or a yellowish green or a greenish yellow. 100
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 26/01/2026but it's extremely weak. You break down a continuum of spectral values into just three discrete channels. You can achieve the same colors in infinitely many ways. Which is why screens work with just three lights. The brain is not confused about purple any more than it is confused about teal. 100
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 26/01/2026including ones that go beyond any wavelength (such as when you exclusively stimulate M receptors, which naturally never happens because M and L overlap so strongly) Colors are perception. Wavelengths are physical quantities. There *is* a relation, as colors are weak evidence for certain spectra 100
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 26/01/2026The part where there supposedly is a confusion. The fact, that somehow it isn't supposed to be possible to make colors from opposing sides of the spectrum. Wavelengths and colors are kind of independent. You can in principle directly stimulate individual retinal cells to cause arbitrary colors 100
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 26/01/2026My issue is, that the article implicitly claims that colors besides purple, such as teal (which it mentions), are spectral, when for the most part they are not. Teal (as in the color of the sky) is very much a spectral mixture. There isn't really anything special happening with purple vs. teal. 100
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 26/01/2026I've seen a couple Let's Plays and it's quite hilarious to observe the truth of this. They basically had complementary experiences. Every mid-to-late-game boss one found easy the other struggled with. One's hours long attempts are the other's one-shot. On average they were about equally good tho 010
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 26/01/2026The article is making exactly the error I'm pointing out. With a tiny set of exceptions, *no* color corresponds to a wavelength. *Some* wavelengths correspond to specific colors. At least before you take into account adaption mechanisms which you'd really need to do to make sense of perception. 100
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 26/01/2026You can in fact get super-spectral color by, for instance, staring at something yellow for a whole, and then staring at something blue right after. The color impression you'll get is gonna be even more blue than the blue thing. 000
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 26/01/2026Nearly every color in nature is gonna have a mixed spectrum. And the tiny slice of colors that does not, is perceptually not actually special. And if you need to only activate a single receptor for a color to count as "real", anything but almost-infra-red won't count. The receptors overlap. 100
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 26/01/2026No color is real. Wavelengths are just energy levels. Claiming purple is not real in this sense is the same as claiming there is no color except for spectral colors, which would mean, say, brown is not real. Or any color that's not super saturated. 200
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 16/01/2026not to be confused with fur-bought-n which would involve the wrong kind of o again 000
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 16/01/2026fwiw the way I hear some English speakers pronounce "verboten" it does tend to sound more like in German it ought to be written "verbotten" (Not universal though) double consonants shorten the previous vowel and in case of o change the o sound from like "dough" to "got" fur-bough-tn (ish) 100

kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 01/01/2026Is there a way to extend this somehow to include higher primes like log(7), log(11), log(13),..., perhaps by going to higher dimensions? Since this is based on triangular/hexagonal rather than quadratic grids, it's not quite clear what the correct generalization would be though... 100
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 24/12/2025Even so you'd at least traditionally expect conservatives (who surely also have a historically tiny intend-to-vote share) to be worse on this than Labour voters but somehow that's not the case. Really weird poll outcome to me 140
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 23/09/2025What I don't want is a simple "minimize distance between specific preselected point on curve and specific datapoint": I am trying to optimize the curve to simultaneously have near arc length parametrization and I don't a priori know the optimal correct parameter. The data isn't evenly spaced. 000
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 23/09/2025@keenancrane.bsky.social Hi, I was wondering: Do you have some geometric magic energy that preferentially: 1. gets a curve to be close to (ideally passes through) an ordered set of data points 2. while avoiding itself Your works on tangent point energies seems related but I'm unsure about part 1 240
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 02/07/2025I can actually overcome the greys by blurring my vision for a bit but the yellow/blue illusion is completely impossible. Like, it's *so* deeply obviously different colors and nothing I can do changes that. 010
kram1032 @kram1032.bsky.social · 01/07/2025Sind alle Städte geschmolzen und nach Südosten geronnen oder ist die Landkarte verflüssigt nach Nordwesten gedriftet? Hätte ja prinzipiell nichts dagegen, dass Wien am Meer läge... 000
