Trivial point, but did they name the ST:Discovery Stamets character after the author of this article? (Mycelium network)

- headmelted 6y agoIndeed they did! A good explainer about this on his Wikipedia page.
- jonathanlydall 6y agoAs someone who enjoys ST:Discovery, also instantly noticed this, looked it up quick and it's mentioned on IMDB as well. TIL. Quite cool.
- rplnt 6y agoI was confused for a while, not the author of the article, but someone mentioned in the article.
- dgb23 6y agoYes, also the core idea of the network came from him. There are a couple of interesting podcast interviews with Stamets. Fascinating stuff. He truly and deeply cares about nature and mushrooms in particular, has done extensive research over the years and has found a wide variety of applicable solutions.
