From the time where the light hits your retina, what's recorded is actually a divergence relative to expectations. And what you see is that, you know, if you were to turn off the light somewhere, so now you see things, you turn off the light, everything is bleak. So you can't see anymore. But if you wait a bit, your eye is going to adapt, you're going to start seeing shades, et cetera.

But if you wait a bit, your eye is going to adapt, you're going to start seeing shades, et cetera.
And so you're going to be able to perceive difference in contrast that you were not perceiving before. What has happened is that your eye It does exactly the same thing that you have a kind of an expectation and you observe differences within this range. If suddenly I change the range of luminosity, your eye doesn't see anything anymore.

What has happened is that your eye It does exactly the same thing that you have a kind of an expectation and you observe differences within this range. If suddenly I change the range of luminosity, your eye doesn't see anything anymore.
So you have to adapt to eventually perceive again the differences. And having this, why is it useful? Because if you have a kind of range where you can perceive differences, you want to maximally use this range in the area you are. If I was to look at this range and say I have to stretch it to observe any kind of differences,

If I was to look at this range and say I have to stretch it to observe any kind of differences,
Then the problem is that a lot of things would look the same because you have a limited ability to perceive differences. So I want to use this ability to perceive differences the most in the area where there are variations that I need to observe. So my eyes are optimally adapting my ability to perceive difference in contrast in the range of contrast that I'm facing now.

And if you turn the light off or put a bright light, I'm going to adapt to this new range. And your happiness is the same thing. So your perception of subjective values, they adapt to the range you're facing. So if you are not very rich selling sandwiches on a cart, you need to be careful about not losing $10.

So you'll be mindful about not making mistakes such that when you count the money you're handing in and getting back, that you're not losing money because this money is important. But let's say that you scratch a lotto card and you become a millionaire. Well, $10 doesn't matter anymore. So why would you care?

But let's say that you scratch a lotto card and you become a millionaire. Well, $10 doesn't matter anymore. So why would you care?
Why would you allocate some of your perception of value to difference in $10 when this doesn't matter anymore?
