Why are flies hard to swat?
When we see the world, our eyes send around 60 images per second to the brain. Our brain then combines these images, helping us see just like a simple motion picture.
But the eyes of a fly send 250 images per second to their brain, meaning, it takes in 4 times more visual information. Hence, when its brain combines 250 images, one second feels much longer, making the fly see in slow motion and allowing it to react much quicker than us.
Now, when we move our hand to swat a sitting fly, out action seems like a super quick single action to us. However, from the fly's ability to see our action in slow motion, it gets enough time to fly away, even as we are just in the middle of the action.
Thus it is hard to swat to swat flies.
Posts before October 2021 have been marked as "Old Posts". Less likely, but they might have out dated or incorrect information, ugly looking bits of code, no labels, etc. Don't get me wrong, many of these posts are top-notch and interesting too.
I thought it would be better not to delete or revamp these posts, even if they suck. The bitter truth is that old works always suck, but I take that as a positive tool to convey that I am growing. Besides there's no better way to showcase my journey without these old, messy, poorly written posts!
