@siracusa Blue deep inside the screen, red popping outside. Clearly two different z-planes.
Even for non-glasses-wearers, the Yosemite "x" widget may not appear perfectly centered: http://www.robbert.org/2014/10/the-off-center-close-button/ …

@arroz Yes, that's another kind of effect. I forget the name, but it's well known.

@siracusa The first thing I did during the beta was look at that control with xScope (to file a Radar.) Which removes physical LCD pixel… -
-
@siracusa@bartdorsey That’s due to subpixel rendering: The red circle borrows the subpixel on the right but the black x is on main pixels -
@teilweise@siracusa Question. Does the position of the window on the screen affect this? Can you nudge it left or right and change it? -
@bartdorsey@siracusa I’d say: The window moves whole pixels, so: No. But there might be some position dependent “randomness” in rendering.

@siracusa Anyone else just spent 10 minutes with a pocket microscope and their iPhone camera? Sony 24" TV monitor.pic.twitter.com/MOirfjR59W

@siracusa And MBP Retina 15. Not sure which way is up/down left/right in these. Think both swapedpic.twitter.com/SnNeCsxhDN

@siracusa On The Silent Age game there are neons near a pub, blue and red on dark background. I could swear I see the neons in 3D. -
@siracusa I noticed it makes a difference if it’s Retina or not. -
@siracusa Wow can't unsee. It's like iOS's parallax effect for old folk. -
@siracusa Saw it immediately while reading your review on my iPad Air on a screenshot. Can't see it on my 27" iMac late 2011. -
@siracusa I thought something was wrong with the lenses in my glasses when I first got them after contacts. Luckily you learn to ignore CA. -
@siracusa Switch to contacts for a few years of dedicated use, then switch back to glasses. You’ll notice chromatic aberration EVERYWHERE. -
@siracusa Hell I'm 37 decent eyes and its to small to see because of the bold red color on it. Could they have made it smaller? -
@siracusa No glasses and I can confirm it doesn't look centered to me either. Bugs me. -
@siracusa Switch to the Graphite Appearance and the off-centre ‘x’ goes away. Alignment of red sub-pixels?
