Cricket is a popular but potentially dangerous sport. It is played with a hard ball that can travel at great speeds. Serious injuries, including fatalities, have occurred when balls have struck participants. The game is traditionally played during daylight with a dark red ball, but recent games have been played during the day and at night using a 'pink' ball. We have reported data that seemed t...

In this paper, we contribute to the deconstruction of concept accuracy with respect machine learning systems that are used in human decision making, and specifically medicine. We argue that, by taking a socio-technical stance, it is necessary move from idea these “agents can err”, just tools which humans interpret new cases light technologically-mediated interpretation past cases, like if they ...

OBJECTIVES Self-luminous electronic devices emit optical radiation at short wavelengths, close to the peak sensitivity of melatonin suppression. Melatonin suppression resulting from exposure to light at night has been linked to increased risk for diseases. The impact of luminous cathode ray tube (CRT) computer monitors on melatonin suppression was investigated. DESIGN Twenty-one participants ...

OBJECTIVE In an effort to enhance the efficiency, brightness, and contrast of light-emitting (LE) devices during the day, displays often generate substantial short-wavelength (blue-enriched) light emissions that can adversely affect sleep. We set out to verify the extent of such short-wavelength emissions, produced by a tablet (iPad Air), e-reader (Kindle Paperwhite 1st generation), and smartph...
