gpuccio again: | Quote | I believe that everybpody emphasizes too much the concept of “selection pressure”. Maybe because the only real model of darwinism is antibiotic resistance? But you know, that is an extreme scenario.
And then, isn’t RV the real originator of the new functions? |
Yes, in part:
| Quote | | RV knows nothing of selection pressure. |
Correct:
| Quote | | If a new function arises by RV, it will be a new useful function also in a general purpose computer environment, I believe. |
Useful to what? If it is used by something, and is found to be usefull it will be used some more. If it is not useful it will not be used - this is called SELECTION!
