This is a link post So you think you can see?
How well can you see colours?

I got 0.004, which is apparently better than the 0.02 average

I wouldn't know any of his songs anyway - we only went for the entertainment value. He had a female singer and I remember he didn't sing much. He wore a giant kimono.

But I suspect that the accuracy of the screen displaying the colours is going to have a significant influence on the results. I'm certain that I'd have scored better if I was playing on my calibrated ProArt screen at home and not my phone screen.

Outdoors in the rain, on a crappy laptop, at 2 in the morning while half-pissed.

This is a normal post This assumes your monitor can show the colour difference...
anyone viewing it on a laptop with a shitty 6-bit screen is going to be unable to see differences.

This is a normal post My ΔE₀ₖ (Delta E OK) of 0.0049 is essentially perfect colour accuracy
So the algorithm is a bit borked. My main takeaway was that it was time to clean my screen so maybe it's just a behavioural control experiment sponsored by the people who make screen wipes.

I'm seeing "differences that most colour scientists call noise" apparently and should be calibrating screens for a living.

What's My JND? 0.0027
Can you beat it? www.keithcirkel.co.uk/whats-my-jnd/?r=AQ0fKP__8vw2

I think it's colour dependent, some near the end I just had to guess but the last couple were really obvious.

I'm in the overthinking stage now. Would a cheaper monitor be better for this? If the colours are closer together than the monitor can handle, will it 'round to the nearest colour' which may be further apart? My monitor not a super high end one by any means, but not budget so probably 16m colours

Isn't this just a test of how good your monitor is?
