Dear all:
Fabio here. I am in Santa Fe right now, but only until Tuesday.
One of the reasons I am here is to find a home for my winter stay.
I plan to be in Santa Fe from January 15, 2018 until April 15 (3 months).
Do you know someone who may have a house for rent?
If not, can you spread the

I've read on Twitter that Brian Hayes was in Santa Fe this week and visited the
SFI. I suggested him to contact Owen if he is interested in taking part in a
FRIAM meeting. Do you still meet on friday morning to discuss complex systems
in one of the cozy and trendy Santa Fe cafes? Anyway, here
Glen,
Actually, I think you are probably right about crossovers! I can see how
innovation can be attributed to them too. Thanks for pointing that out,
Glen. (Had crossovers been discovered in '72 when Monod wrote his book?)
But that is because crossovers, too, like mutations, are stochastic.

I've never tried this approach, but it seems plausible. The link may be
pay-walled, but the gist is to evolve fancier operators using masking of the
genome.
Great info, thanks.
A few constraints:
- I've finally gotten back to Write & Run JavaScript, no transpiling.
- My workflow also is simplified: only npm scripts possibly using a node
script.
- I run a local hot-loading node http server so Write & Run is automatic.
All managed by a npm script.
Exactly. And even though we're conflating the model of evolution with the real
thing, I find it difficult to believe the "space" operated on by evolution is
entirely convex or even connected. So, (point) mutation alone may *never*
reach some regions, regardless of infinite individuals,

"Can we truly say that the crossover had nothing to do with the "innovation"
... that it only preserved the innovation and the mutation caused it? A
neutral mutation can't be considered an "innovation", right?"
A function related by rotation might be a candidate for crossover.
This paragraph (for whatever reason) makes progress toward my counter-argument
AGAINST both Monod-via-Grant and Wagner-via-Jenny. While it may be true that
mutation is necessary for innovation, it's insufficient to claim that
innovation comes only through mutation. Imagine two point mutations

I considered calling "quantum randomness" "notional", but I wasn't sure WTF
I meant by that. There's a dimension here I am
