| Ya got me, but funny enough mimics tend to lower the effectiveness of warning coloration of other sneks. :/ So it does ONE snek no good to be confused for another.... the venomous one anyways. Basically some young dumbass animal attacks a snake.... and usually learns his lesson about attacking snakes of that color because of the memory associated with that snake...... a predator that attacks a mimic learns nothing. #25 -
anon (12/19/2015) [-] The reason the mimic snakes evolved the colouration of the venomous snake is because predators wont attack, they learned there lesson and passed the behaviour onto their young, which also wont attack. Of course one cheeky lil shit will attack a mimic snake and realize it's harmless, then attack a venomous snake and die. That animal (now dead) will not reproduce and pass on the behaviour (to attack snakes of that colour), so mimic snakes win again, with non of the added energy expenditure of actually producing toxins.

| What you say is partly true. According to NASA all the different colours of light do indeed scatter across the sky, but the blue wavelengths scatter much more than than the others, which is why the sky is blue. Apparently a girl, who had never been taught the colour of the sky, only the colour of other things (including blue things) was asked what the colour of the sky was. Apparently she didn't at first realize that the sky was "a thing", but she ended up saying white. She later changed he opinion to blue, and the white again, until she ended up on blue as her final answer. I have yet to hear of anyone saying the sky is green (though it may have happened without my knowledge as I am not omnipotent). | ||

| Then they are of a blue hue or something along those line (pardon my lack of vocabulary, english is not my main language). This has more or less become an argument of semantics. All the wavelengths coming from the sky (that the human eye can observe anyway) are from the blue spectrum of visible light, therefore i would say the sky is blue. whether it has different tinges of blue i do not care, as they are still blue. #36 -
kingpongthedon (12/16/2015) [-] No, not all of those photons correspond to what we consider blue. The light from the sky encompasses the entire visible spectrum. Color perception is an incredibly complex neurological process carried out by the brain that relies on much more than the actual photons hitting your eyes. But that's my point anyway, whether or not the sky is blue is a matter of semantics, not some objective measure of reality. What you say is partly true.

| All the things you say are true, but we also define light as electromagnetic waves. I dont recall what the wavelength of visible light is, but green and blue is definitely within there. It is generally accepted within most communities that certain wavelengths correspond to certain ranges of colour. Therefore the sky has only one colour, no matter what you may try to argue. The only difference is what we name that colour, and as most people call the wavelengths of the sky blue, the sky is blue. #22 -
kingpongthedon (12/15/2015) [-] But the light from the sky isn't made up of a single wavelength that corresponds to "blue." It's made up of a whole host of photons with different wavelengths that happen to be processed as something most people consider blue. If it were made of a single wavelength, then you could argue that the sky is objectively blue but that isn't the case for the sky. For most natural colors, there is no singular wavelength that corresponds to that color. Designations such as red or blue and even infrared or ultraviolet have little value outside of the lab where you can make pure colors. Then they are of a blue hue or something along those line (pardon my lack of vocabulary, english is not my main language). This has more or less become an argument of semantics.

The entire point is that the argument is trash, not whether you agree or disagree with the ethics behind it. #121 -
jujuface (12/13/2015) [-] "The entire argument is trash" Right. Because you only declare bankruptcy when your business is doing really, really well. You can call it a business tactic all you want, but declaring bankruptcy is done as a last resort, when your business has undeniably failed and you want to cut your losses without pissing off your shareholders. My argument is that he's an unethical piece of shit. New argument cause you didn't like the other argument. Suck it. #92 -
