You have things like grapheme-color synesthesia where people really do experience things different. They might see 2s as blue and 5s as green. So if they ever saw a 2 it would be blue. Like 5 5 5 5 2 5 5. Even though the numbers are all the same color to us someone with the synesthesia would see those numbers there in the color their mind associates them with automatically.

Here's the standard color wheel set to Red, Blue, Yellow as primary colors.

You'll notice that magenta is represented as almost a whole different color. It's light red in the CMYK, light purple in RGB.

And

Cyan, baby blue, sky blue, etc. isn't represented. Instead you get a blue-purple they call violet.

Light Red - Magenta

Light Blue - Cyan

Blue-Purple - Indigo

Light Purple - Red-Purple - Fushsia

We as a whole can't decide what constitutes purple/violet in RGB model

Even if someone doesn't know what a true "Indigo" looks like they are still experiencing that color for what it is. They will just call it Bluish-Purple or Purplish-Blue. And unless it really was the exact mix of 50/50 blue and purple it wouldn't be indigo. It would be a equivalent to a Redish-Orange. A Bluish-Indigo or Purplish-Indigo.

Sorry for the walls of text I was learning and thought I might as well share.

Your language doesn't change your perception of color.

The primary colors being Red, Yellow, Blue. Is made up. There's no reason those should be the three primary colors.

Magenta, Yellow, and Cyan could be the primary colors if you were taught that.

In that color wheel orange is an intermediate color. The intermediate color between green and yellow can be called chartreuse.

Did you know chartreuse as a color or did you just know it as yellow-green?

Do you not preceve the color chartreuse the same as someone that just knows that name?

You can perceve all the difference colors on this wheel without needing an official word.

As you can see "Brown" is just a darker orange.

Your phone screen only uses three colors to represent all colors.

If you printed out the photo of the dress the "illusion" wouldn't work.

The 3 colors used to make the blue dress in warm "gold" light is what allows your brain to interpret it as yellow.

If anything it helps prove that people basically see in the same way. Just if your brain adjusts for the backlight tone. You either saw blue or yellow. No one was saying purple or orange.

If you took mushrooms and saw purple you'd be hallucinating. Your brain is giving you false information.

Seeing it as yellow isn't false information but a different interpretation of the given material

Counting to 100 is like learning to read. Yes both are basic tools needed to learn English or math.

Do I need to know that the Ming Dynasty ruled from 1368 to 1644? Is anything about the Ming Dynasty relevant to my life? I cannot remember the other handful of dynasties so I guess the Ming Dynasty could be the only one needed to function.

Yes history is important and definitely worth telling people. But having them memorize stuff that you can look up in a textbook is dumb.

I could walk into any high school level history class and pass the test if it was open book and if I had enough time I'd probably find all the answers.

Anyone couldn't walk into a Calculus class and pass the test with it being open book if they didn't know how to do Calculus. Yes they could read the whole chapter and learn to do it then pass the test. But there's no looking up the answers in the book. It's not memorizing.

We know this is necessary because of cultures that are missing whole concepts like particular colors. The idea of right and left. So on.

Cultures are not missing whole concepts like particular colors or left and right. They just express it differently.

Light red is pink. But a light blue is still light blue, maybe baby blue or sky blue.

Russia has the word голубой for light blue. It's equivalent to our pink. Are we missing the whole concept of light голубой? No.

The cultures understand them being a different color and even more so they understand how it's a mix or part of a color group. Being able to point and say "orange" when equal red and yellow are mixed isn't a necessary skill. Like what would you say if something was a mixture of equal parts green and yellow? You could say chartreuse. If you didn't know that word are you really missing out on everything chartreuse?

The right and left thing I think you're referring to the tribe that uses cardinal directions? Thinking in terms of cardinal directions instead of left or right is a bit bizarre and I don't know exactly how deep it goes. Like if i wanted to tell you to hang the picture to the right of the fireplace, I would have to know the cardinal directions of your house? Cardinal directions are extremely useful to use in English. East side wall of your house tells you exactly what wall it is. Left or right doesn't mean anything unless I say something like "facing your house". If I knew your fireplace was on your north wall I could easily say "Hang the picture east of your fireplace" meaning hang it to the right.

They do have a point. School should be about learning and developing critical thinking skills rather than memorizing who the 30th president was.

I know my schooling had a ton of memorization. Funny to think about now that I know I have Aphantasia because I always excelled in math and science because they are less about memorization and more about learning a concept to apply.

They need to teach kids how to use AI. It's like people that won't let you use a calculator in math. "You aren't always going to have a calculator in your pocket"

I've always been a big supporter of open book/note tests

There is no reason I should be able to recite as much of the Canterbury Tales as I can.

Do normal people really argue with themselves?

I have aphantasia, no visual mind images, and was thinking about the cartoon representation of the devil and angel battling on the character's shoulders.

I learned counting sheep meant actually watching sheep in their mind. Could it be like that?

I'm debating if I have an interal monologe. I can "speak" words in my head.

But I wrote this comment without planning and just wrote it down as it came to me saying each word in my inner voice as I typed it.

160k extra. You have what you're going to normally retire with plus this 160k.

"Allow her to retire comfortably"

The debatable part is if they meant immediately retire. Which 5 figures will not let you do. But will it allow her to retire eventually comfortably?

10 year US bond is 4.2%

Let's say she is 30.

Retirement age is 67. So 37 years until retirement.

6,000€ ×5 is ~$35,000

$35,000 at 4.2% interest for 37 years is $160,388.66 (This isn't taking into consideration reinvesting the 4.2% interest after 10 years, but also ignoring things like taxes)

But getting $160k when you retire would allow a lot of people to retire comfortably.

They get turned into red light when going into pokeball. They get stored as red light. No need for tubes to store ball.

Since the masterball exists that must mean you keep the masterball on you always and just pull the pokemon out with any connected PC.
