  1. High dynamic range in PC monitors became an obsession from day one. Since it was one of the disadvantages of so-called flat screens compared to those that used tube technology, technologies were eventually developed to display a greater number of colors and improve image quality. However, there are monitors with limited HDR that do not offer what they promise. The representation of color has been one of the problems to be solved since the dawn of computing. In the beginning, the range of colors that could be represented was very limited and we had to wait until well into the 90's for the average user to see real images on their PC screen. After that change, we were more than two decades in which the representation of color stagnated, even took a leap back with the first LCD screens that appeared for PC. The answer from the manufacturers? The development of the HDR standard, but due to not making clear what the concept really is, this has opened the window of opportunity for screens with limited HDR, which have a higher color capacity than conventional screens, but not good enough. as to be considered as DisplayHDR by the VESA as it does not reach the minimum brightness of 400 nits that the standard requires in both aspects. The problem with limited HDR displays Pseudo-HDR displays Let's recap, a pseudo-HDR screen is one with a color range higher than usual, but lower than what the DisplayHDR standard requires. The problem comes when in stores we see monitors where they offer us a higher heat range than a standard monitor, but at the same time they have a limited range. GPUs to save transistors do not usually support RGB color components of more than 8 bits, to achieve a greater heat range tricks such as Tone Mapping are pulled during the image post-processing stage to add more luminance to the colors that are come on screen, but that is not real HDR. The other problem is that of limited HDR. Keep in mind that the display controller that reads the image buffer and sends the signal through the HDMI or DisplayPort port to the internal controller inside the monitor, which will then interpret that signal and illuminate the pixels on the screen to generate what we will see with our eyes printed on the LCD or OLED panel. We do not recommend such screens for graphic design Pantone Colors Design Since the display driver inside the graphics card does not know the screen to which it is going to send the image signal, it has to trust that the standards are followed. If what you do is send a signal with a higher range to a screen that has it lower, then what will happen is very simple: the colors that are close in value, but that are different, will be shown as a homogeneous color and it is deformation in the color representation is where the problem lies. If you work in markets where the color representation of the images is key, then the best you can make sure is that the monitor follows the DisplayHDR standard, but that the thing is not reduced to a logo on the box, take a good look at the technical specifications both in the box and on the manufacturer's website. Since there are cases in which you are going to see the logo, but then you may find yourself with the surprise that your screen does not represent the colors with the expected precision. The reason for this is that reducing the level of luminance that can be represented on the screen in the end we end up obtaining a compressed version of the color palette. For 90% of the public they are good enough, but if your work depends on the exact use of color then it is best that you look for a panel with better specifications.
  2. Carlos Ramos Núñez, magistrate of the Constitutional Court (TC) and member of the Venice Commission, died at dawn on Tuesday at the age of 61, after suffering cardiac arrest. The president of the TC, Marianella Ledesma, highlighted in RPP Noticias the professional career of the magistrate and said that despite the loss of him, said instance has the quorum to hold sessions. "I have very special memories of Carlos Ramos, the trips we have made as magistrates from the academic point of view that we have shared at the time," she said.

  3. The subject made the front page news without anyone waiting for it. The publication in the Buenos Aires newspaper La Nación of what has been called an “invasion” of capybaras (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris) in Nordelta, an exclusive neighborhood born in 1999 thanks to the real estate transformation of an area that was a wetland in front of the delta from the Parana River, the event quickly went viral. The image of Oreo, a mini schnauzer dog injured by a specimen of the largest rodent on the planet, gained a privileged place on television screens and cell phones, and social networks became the scene of multiple debates where environmental issues, public health, treatment of animals and even social justice were mixed. In a matter of hours, the news became a trending topic on Twitter and while reporters from all the news channels were looking for testimonies in the place, located 30 kilometers from the center of the Argentine capital, a veritable avalanche of jokes and memes was unleashed that focused on the high purchasing power of the inhabitants of the housing complex. Suddenly, the po[CENSORED]r imagination turned the capybaras (known as capybaras, ronsocos or chigüiros in other countries of the continent) into unusual representatives of the less favored sectors, or directly into an authentic revolutionary army whose intention would be to reconquer their territory and expel those who They would have usurped their natural habitat. As is often the case with these types of events, some truth lies behind the initial shock. The capybaras, indeed, belong to the native fauna of that region. "The current po[CENSORED]tions were already in place when the area was natural wetlands," confirms María José Corriale, a doctor in Biological Sciences specializing in ecology and management of both this species and nutria (Myocastor coipus), and adds: " Now, they are simply recovering their po[CENSORED]tion level ”.

Widely distributed in much of South America, the species remains in a good state of conservation and does not belong to any risk category. Neither in Argentina. The largest number of individuals is found in the Iberá estuaries (Corrientes province), but they can also be observed in the north of the Gran Chaco, the low areas that surround the Paraná and Uruguay rivers, and in Misiones, in the extreme northeast from the country. "Until a few years ago, the Delta area was established as the southern limit of its presence, but now they are also found in various parts of the interior of the province of Buenos Aires," underlines Corriale, a researcher at the Higher Council for Scientific and Technical Research ( CONICET).

  4. The bill presented by Congressman Abel Reyes, from Peru Libre, which proposes to declare of public necessity "the fair and equitable distribution of the electromagnetic and radioelectric spectrum" of radio, television and other media, does not have support among the opposition benches in Parliament. Reyes' proposal - which bears the signatures of the official parliamentarians María Agüero, Álex Paredes, Silvana Robles, Guillermo Bermejo, Jhasmina Paredes and Waldemar Cerrón - also establishes in its article 4 that the government "with an exceptional and transitory nature" may assume the direct provision of determining services or exploitation of telecommunication networks. MIRA: SNRTV warns that Peru Libre seeks to control independent media In this regard, the spokesman for Fuerza Po[CENSORED]r, Hernando Guerra García, said that the Peru Libre initiative seeks to "control everything" and a mechanism for this is to "intervene or blackmail" the media. “At that level its ideology works, any extremist ideology, of the communist left, what it seeks is to control everything, that's where totalitarianism comes from, part [of it] is to look for mechanisms to control, intervene or blackmail the media, or buy, The initiative to redistribute advertising has been released, giving emphasis to the provincial media, ”he remarked on Canal N. In a brief communication with El Comercio, the spokesman for the Alliance for Progress (APP), Eduardo Salhuana, announced that his bench "for a democratic principle" will not support any bill that seeks to "undermine" and "restrict" the work from the press. He added that the exercise of the media should be free. “We are going to oppose [this initiative of Peru Libre]. It is worrying that these types of proposals are being made, although it is not strange to me. This government has serious communication problems, it limits access to the press, it does not allow it to enter the Government Palace and there are situations of aggression against journalists, ”he said. Former APP candidate for the Presidency César Acuña said that his group will not support the official proposal. “At APP we are firm in our democratic convictions and in the unrestricted respect of constitutional rights. Our bench will not support any bill that threatens or limits freedom of the press and expression in our country, ”the former regional governor of La Libertad tweeted. The parliamentarian José Cueto (Po[CENSORED]r Renovation) rejected, through his Twitter account, the project presented by Reyes. "In a democratic country, a critical press is required, not one bought or loyal to the government, that speaks or reports according to the Executive's criteria," wrote the also president of the Congress Intelligence Commission. My opinion regarding the bills that seek to affect freedom of expression and of the press: In a democratic country, a critical press is required, not one bought or loyal to the Government, which speaks or reports according to the criteria of the Executive. # RepresentaciónCeleste - José Cueto (@JoseCuetoAservi) September 20, 2021 Avanza País spokesman José Williams Zapata said that, although his bench has not yet analyzed Reyes' project, it is very likely that they will not support him. “There should be no restrictions on freedom of the press. I believe that President Castillo must prevent the free action of the media from being questioned in his government. The government should not enter [the media] in any way, that is not convenient and it would not do the Executive any good, "he added in dialogue with this newspaper. Congressman Carlos Anderson (Podemos Peru) affirmed, in a personal capacity, that he is against any measure that limits freedom of expression. “I am totally and absolutely against any measure that limits freedom of expression or that violates the media. On the contrary, I think that what this government should do is open the doors to the press, open up to dialogue with citizens through the media, ”he told El Comercio.
