CityU scholars unify color systems using prime numbers

Researchers from City University of Hong Kong developed a unified colour system based on prime numbers, called C<sub>235</sub>, which can represent various colours more efficiently than existing systems like RGB and CMYK. The new colour system has potential applications in designing energy-saving LCD systems and colourizing DNA codons.

It's not how you play the game, but how the dice were made

A recent study on dice reveals that their design changed significantly over time, reflecting shifting worldviews about luck and fairness. Dice were initially lopsided in Roman times and early medieval periods, but standardization emerged around 1450 with the adoption of Renaissance-era ideas about chance and probability.
