Polymath and the origin of life
- jacquesm 17y agoIf this stuff interests you and you haven't read the blind watchmaker yet then find a copy somewhere, it has a chapter on clay that is quite interesting.
- te_platt 17y agoIf I read the article right the main questions are: What is the simplest self reproducing system? What are the parameters needed for such a system? Can such a system lead to an evolution cycle? I like the approach he lays out. I've always been curious about what it would take to write a simulation where the evolution happens in code space instead of attribute space.
