Our brains are wired such that we automatically cancel out things that are not changing around us, in a process called adaptation. I really like this article because it not only gives a lot of interesting information about the brain, but it also hooks the reader effectively by providing physical, relatable examples of how our brains tune stuff out. I quickly found myself drawn into the article and interested to learn more.

I thought the author of this post did a great job explaining the experiment and the point of his research. Additionally, he was able to clarify complex scientific words and processes, without spending too much time explaining every detail. The overall structure of the blog post is well done, as the author progresses from an explanation of the experiment, to the meaning of certain results, to the results themselves.
