Agreed that we probably end up on that naturally for things like traffic lights or danger signs, but I was thinking more interns of a full UI with that approach as an integral, con…

It would be interesting to design a UI colour scheme specifically with this in mind, with strategic use of red vs green for focusing attention in a way that parallels the eye's nat…

Definitely a good point, although it might be a reflection of high budget long form content reflecting interests of older people more than younger generations, and as they grow int…

Also, I'm the same way with shifting to more relaxing things like reading and dinner with friends so totally agree on that! I was writing more with what I think of as the average c…
