Ooh yay thanks @debbie for the upvote.

@po Thanks for such a cool illusion! I never expected that A and B are the same. It’s amazing how our brain can trick us that much.

5 months ago: "Thanks for the upvote!"
Now: me: upvotes almost everything lol -
@po yeah, it's a cool illusion, but how do you tell whether the shade of grey is different or not? Is it just a coincidence and you can use some kind of computer program that breaks the color down to a mix of yellow, blue, and red so you can check if it's the same? Or can you calculate the shadiness of B using the intensity of the light and the density and thickness of the cylinder and then make A the same?
Just wanted to know....curiousity...unstoppable...
