Perhaps you haven't noticed this yet....
This helps people with deuteranopia (red/green colour blindness) like myself .
It would have been more suitable to discuss electrical engineering where problems could be just as severe.  |
I have a very good friend since university days (and that's a
long time) who is daltonian (French term for red/green colour blindness – I wondr who "Dalton" was?), drives a car and is still alive, and builds electronic circuits professionally. When resistors arrive, he is very careful into which drawer they are placed.
And, while he reads a fair amount of SF and some fantasy, he does not appreciate the discworld series.
I, on the other hand, can't drive, so wait for the little green "walk" man in the traffic lights, pile resistors near randomly and sort them later, and am fully up to date with my Pratchett reading.
Which demonstrates absolutely nothing.
