But your eyeball, retina, all of it, would be producing the same light.
Maybe if you had a special eye scrotum of low light producing tissue that hung away from the body.
If we all work on this, I think we can seed the chemtrails-verse with the belief that ancient hunter gatherer men saw nocturnal prey with their testicles, and that you can learn to do it now with a combo of ice baths and bow hunting naked
Please don't comment like this on Hacker News. It's fine to disagree with someone else's comment and offer an alternative point of view, but please don't be mocking and mean like this.
Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes.
I apologise if my comment comes across as mean and snarky, and I can see how it does so I'm sorry. I wasn't my inention to mock the poster.
I have always been interested that we cannot see infrared, but some reptiles can, we cannot because our eyeballs are flooded with warm blood, there is no way for our bodies to distinguish signal from noise.
This made me think of the scrotums purpose to maintain the testes slightly below body temperature, which then amused me with the idea that it might therefore be able to function as a kind of infra red, body light retina.
so I was mocking some primal hunter ideas, but certainly no one posting on this page
