Telorand OP , to Ask Science in [Mycology] Are yeasts analogous to each other, to the point they can be used in food interchangeably?

That’s fascinating!

Amouranth just apparently dropped $17mil on some fruit farms, so money isn’t a problem for her, but who knows if she would go to the trouble, since it sounds pretty error-prone.

Telorand OP , to Ask Science in [Mycology] Are yeasts analogous to each other, to the point they can be used in food interchangeably?

This is a completely reasonable hypothesis.

Also, sorry I spoiled the illusion that “Gamer Girl Bathwater” was the most egregious thing the parasocial relationship industry has come up with.

I understand that fungi can and do swap genes, so I wonder if they’ll try to create a brewer’s and vaginal yeast hybrid.

Telorand OP , to Ask Science in Can sufficiently energetic EM waves of a specific frequency affect weaker EM waves of a different frequency?

I really appreciate the extra info! It’s fascinating.

I’m recently an ex-fundie, so learning about all the cool stuff happening in science is like finding out your childhood house has a million secret rooms you never knew about.

Telorand OP , to Ask Science in Can sufficiently energetic EM waves of a specific frequency affect weaker EM waves of a different frequency?

I will! Thank you! Also, it’s super fun that there’s exceptions based on the medium; I had no idea. I was picturing air or vacuum when I conceived of the original question, so now I have other things to look into!

Telorand OP , to Ask Science in Can sufficiently energetic EM waves of a specific frequency affect weaker EM waves of a different frequency?

from a distance it will appear grey but the actual colors of individual grains of sand (frequency of “individual” em waves) won’t change.

So to a sufficiently tuned and sensitive receiver, if I understand correctly, it would be trivial to distinguish between the two. That makes sense.

Telorand OP , to Ask Science in Can sufficiently energetic EM waves of a specific frequency affect weaker EM waves of a different frequency?

Thanks for the analogy! It’s pretty easy to understand how that works. I think I was imagining that EM waves shared some qualities with mechanical waves like sound, but I suppose that’s not the case!

Telorand , to Texas in Texas amendment results rundown

Republicans pinky-promised they would find the funding somewhere. That’s apparently good enough for a lot of people.

Telorand , to Texas in Ken Paxton plans to file criminal complaints against lawmakers who impeached him

He won’t hurt shit, except the taxpayers who are footing the bill for this. This is “kraken” level political theatre.
