  • I can’t understand anyone who can look at the left dress and think that it’s a dark picture in the shadows.

    All the “explanations” basically say the same thing. Those dress shades appear to be white/gold in the context of a dark or dimly lit room.

    Which the photo clearly is not. It’s so damn bright the entire background is washed out, and light is even spilling over from the background over the dress.








  • I think in terms of workers rights, China is rapidly coming up to the West in the 50s. There’s a massive growth in middle class as well as white collar jobs, especially in tech and engineering.

    This has put pressure on society as a whole for much higher standards of living, and thus better wages and better rights. They are no longer the cheap ass labor country, that’s being exported to Africa and such.

    Although the 996 culture is still insane, but I think that partly comes from the extreme competitive environment in the tech sector. There were similar stories years ago in the video game industry, and that probably hasn’t changed much.
