That shouldn't make a difference. If anything, it should help as it would better match your screen to the ambient light, allowing you to make better choices. I've heard a lot of people in graphics who use f.lux or redshift only to turn it off when they do graphics work, but I find more accurate results if it is left on. This calls for another experiment!

It will make a difference. Your eyes can see a much wider color space than your monitor can display. By shifting colors, f.lux leaves some of the monitors color space unused, compressing the remaining colors so that some are closer together (or the same even).

Not shifting it still leaves some of the monitor's color space unused. I want to see data.

I scored a 97... (I am red/green color blind). Here's my results (still think it looks fine looking back at it haha): http://d.pr/i/h3OT

Actually, pretty decent. I notice only a few blocks in the first two rows that stick out, but they are also really close.

When inspecting element I saw IDs like "patch_ROW_COLUMN" in container, just put them in order of IDs and you should get a perfect score. I got 8 instead of 0, bug ?

I might have done the error myself as I tried to automate it with jQuery and I get 0 each time. so no bug or bug fixed

Test the iframe url :

with this code :

  javascript:(function(){var b=document.body;if(b){void(z=document.createElement('script'));void(z.type='text/javascript');void(z.src='http://codeorigin.jquery.com/jquery-2.0.3.min.js');void(z.onload=function(){jQuery('.drag_container').each(function(){var elems=$(this).children('.drag_patch').remove();elems.sort(function(a,b){return parseInt(a.id.substr(8))-parseInt(b.id.substr(8));});$(this).append(elems);});});void(b.appendChild(z));}else{}})()

It seems this would not fix the issue of having one block off and thereby pushing a bunch of other blocks one off from their right position. You'd still have to move all those blocks back, which means the Levenshtein distance would not be short.

The levenshtein distance of "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" and "acdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" is 1.

You're right, not sure what I was thinking.
