An obvious question arises - why doesn’t an organism degrade before its terminal point?

Observation has revealed great variation in the level of protection and repair of genetic code both from one organism to the next and from one stretch of code to the next in the same organism. From an engineering perspective it’s trivial to protect some memory regions better than others. It’s all a matter of how much protection you need and how much overhead you’re willing to use to protect it. Code that needs to be maintained without error for geologic timespans gets better error detection/correction applied to it.


Quick, to the informatics lab, Tardman!
We should be able to see this extra, targeted protection, then...?

Wow, I read that, and the stupid just burns.  It's just sad when they say cute stuff like that.  If you could only remove the blinders, he might actually be able to understand some fairly simple evolutionary biology...

I just got the PDF version of Michael Sherman's opus re the "Universal Genome", touted by DaveTard as being in support of front-loading. If anyone wants a copy, PM me and I'll get it to you. It does seem that this went through some sort of review process (submitted 4/5/07, accepted 6/6/07), but a quick read does also indicate that the reviewers weren't paying much attention. There are many instances of appalling English grammar, typos, etc.

I also have a new avatar, designed by my son. It is supposed to be a "Dire Penguin", but shrinking it down doesn't let you appreciate all of its intelligently designed features. Go here if you want to look at the full version.

I'm bewildered by the new tactics on UD.

First, as someone's already noted, Dave admits:
 
Quote
In all fairness to nbogard (who is now being moderated) anyone who thinks a design inference is warranted is in some sense a creationist. The argument I think hinges on conflating “creationist” with biblical creationist. One can be the former without being the latter.

Then Patrick weighs in:
 
Quote


Even before I read what Dave wrote I was thinking the same thing. But I went to several dictionary websites and most conflate “creationist” with “biblical creationist”. Even this definition which doesn’t explicitly reference “God” or the “Bible”…

“the doctrine that matter and all things were created, substantially as they now exist, by an omnipotent Creator, and not gradually evolved or developed.”

…would rule out someone like Behe.

In principle I don’t mind being labeled a creationist. The problem is that it causes confusion since it doesn’t recognize the significant distinctions.


But, but, I thought ID was not creationism.  In fact, I thought it was not creationism.  In my foolishness, I even persuaded myself that ID  was not creationism at all.  In fact, I even thought that Michael Behe and William Dembski had both said that "ID is not creationism."

Clearly I was mistaken.

(So what gives?  Are they embracing their secret creationist selves?)

Dembski notes that it's OK to publish emails sent to you, if the sender also sent copies to some other people    
Quote
It started with Benjamin Kelley, dean of engineering and computer science at Baylor, sending Prof. Marks the following email (I share it here since Dean Kelley copied others at Baylor and had no compunction about embarrassing Prof. Marks with it)

I don't know who those other people are (maybe they were the sort of person one might expect to be copied: personel dept, Sysadmins etc, not just people Marks had been trying to impress socially or whom Baylor employed to mock thier employees in public), so I won't get into that side too much, but this post did remind me of something from last year.

In December 2006, Dembski sent an email to Dawkins and copied to all of the people he featured in ID's greatest work to date, the flash fart animation. Dawkins reproduced it on his web site and Demsbki got all self righteous about it.  He used it as an excuse to publish a previous (2006) email sent by Dawkins to Dembski (alone) and thereafter they both printed each others emails (according to DDD - I don't often read Dawkins site), but with Demsbki complaining about the fact that Dawkins was now doing the same thing as himself.

I'm not sure if Dembski is now saying that Dawkins was right all along to publish his first multiple-recipient email and Dembski was just being melodramatic, or whether he still thinks it was wrong, but is using one person's immoral behaviour towards him as an excuse to act immorally towards someone else.

O'Leary:

What does Bob Marks want? He wants the right to run computer simulations at Baylor that might (possibly) reduce confidence in Darwinian evolution.

Has Baylor ever told Marks what simulations he can and cannot run on their computers?  Of course not.  He could be simulating a light saber battle with Darth Vader for all they care.

Denyse and several others are trying to exploit this incident by making it seem that the Darwinian establishment is shutting down ID's attempts at research.  But Baylor isn't slowing anyone down by saying, "Publish this stuff on your own server, not ours."  Whether or not Baylor has behaved poorly in principle, IDists can't add this to their list of excuses for not doing research.

I don't know what to make of this.  Tom English, a Dembski debunker and a member of the banned, is now an affiliate of the Evo Info Lab.  And Dembski still isn't listed.

I can't tell if Dembski is really off the project or not.  As of Sept. 7, he was still saying, "Bob and I are committed to doing good work and letting the results go where they will."  But if English is in and Dembski is out, I think the lab will be legitimate.  I don't think that English will put up with having his name attached to junk pseudoresearch.

This is a very surprising twist in this story.

Maybe Marks didn't want to get dragged down into the shitter along with Dembski? Frankly, I have no idea why any scholar with a real professorship at a real university would want to be associated with Bill in any way. Bill's name recognition among creationist engineers and property managers can't possibly be worth it.

It appears that this the Tom English that is associating with Dr. Marks is the same one that got banninated at Uncommon Descent last year.

Definitely. I recall visiting his website while in the midst of the discussion that culminated in so many bannings (including my own). Same site linked to from the informatics site. That's the guy.

Great picture of suite 1800.  Perhaps that explains why Dembski was so eager to gain the use of a broom closet at Baylor.

Do you think the younger races have more information for skin color than the younger races?
I think it is fairly obvious that the East Africans have all the inherent traits of all the races in their genomes! Whereas it is also obvious that Europeans are much more deficient of the raw material to “make” other color races. To me it is clear that more information for skin color resides in the East Africans! It is commonly known that the black color is really a mixture of all the other colors when referring to materials, whereas white contains all the other colors when referring to light! As to how to extrapolate this basic fact for color information to the genome I do not know right now. As well you can clearly see genetic entropy in the wild with the sub-species of “horses” such as donkey and zebra. It is very easy to see which is closer to the parent species that was originally created by God and to see which has been “naturally selected” for to produce the “very limited variability” we can easily see in the sub-species!
As far as front loading goes, I believe that “beneficial adaptations” will occur from preexisting information such as what we see in the polar bear from the grizzly bear but that the adaptation , though beneficial, will result in the loss of information from the original parent species. Such as the loss of information for hair color.


Wow.

It's hard to see through the Tard-fog, but I think he's saying exactly the opposite.  Creationism is the anti-racism!  Evolution leads to Nazism!  Etc. (insert creationist canards freely).  

It's really odd, for sure.  He's forgotten that real people aren't actually white or black.

I note a certain deafening silence has descended on that thread, like BA77 just loudly farted in church. Part of it may be the extreme difficulty of figuring out which of two completely retarded ideas he's advocating.

Sentences like the following sure don't help:

Do you think the younger races have more information for skin color than the younger races?


No, I think the younger races have more information, not the younger ones.
