Many of my collaborators have been philosophers, such as Derr, Bybee, Lipton, and Barker, who, while disagreeing with me profoundly on many matters, have generously helped me shape my ideas in some degree palatable to the field while opening my eyes to whole realms of philosophy I would not otherwise have encountered.. The same is true of FRIAM which has bemused me with complexity, mathematics, and the mysteries of algorithmic thinking and has kept me “in the biz” deep into retirement. There is no greater kindness. Thank you, all, Nick From: Friam <[email protected]> On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Monday, August 3, 2020 12:29 AM To: The Friday Morning Applied Complexity Coffee Group <[email protected]> Subject: [FRIAM] Intentionality is the Mark of the Vital One of my favorite papers from Nick is the paper „Intentionality is the Mark of the Vital“. Maybe because every piece of code I write as a developer has a certain purpose and intention. Genetic code contains instructions & recipes too. It has an „intention“. Why is that so many of the good papers are a collaboration of two persons from different departments? Wilson & Sober have written a paper about group selection, Robert Boyd and Peter Richerson too: Intentionality is the Mark of the Vital Nicholas Simonds Thompson & Patrick G.
