If isolated trees of these species do not have these space creating directional tendencies, then in a group the trees are not just "growing into available space". I haven't read the book but I think you can investigate this t

I think it is likely that if silicon is not the best (whatever the measure is) material then it will lead technology to a local maximum that is hard to escape. Another technology would have to catch up in cost and functionality at a tiny fr

The title seems to have misled you. You do not say whether you have read the book, you seem to criticise ("limited view") and yet hint ("you can't think about evolution on an individual basis") at some fundamental a

Well, they have to balance (dis)pleasing both the old users and the new users. Not everyone will be happy, even those that may benefit later on have no way of voicing opinion based on the satisfaction that is yet to come. On the human side,

print as a statement requires a special syntax rule. When people switch that special case goes away. Maybe that does not account for much on the whole, but language designers tend to be irked by such things.

If you have high earnings in a market that you think has a low barrier of entry, you can expect worthy competitors to show up. If you are the worthy competitor (No. 2) but maybe just cannot dethrone the number one, then you could decide to

ggplot is slow (though not as slow as it was 5 or so years ago) and Matplotlib is even slower. I took to liking the ggplot syntax immediately. Specifically what do you find odd/forced about it?

When reading code I find comprehensions easier to comprehend than combinations of map , filter and reduce . That is considering that I played around with some Common-Lisp before getting into Python. The parts in the comprehension

The tendencies at the start of the domestication process can be varied, yet we can expect that any capacity for tolerance is more likely aid the process rather than hinder it. This is a process that can and does take thousands of years, a

Domestication does not have to be deliberate, nor does it need to provide an immediate benefit to the party doing the domestication [1]. This is probably a common misunderstanding of the process. Plus for a little more complexity, we can ex

While your version are usable. They differ in the requirements fulfilled. e.g. chunk_iter - iterables not just sequences multi-dict - usability Plus nice error messages. The goal is to be standard library quality.

The Fermi paradox is based on the vastness of we can observe. It says nothing about that which may exist beyond (not hidden) what we observe.
