    Evolution, maybe someone can explain?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fitness_(biology) Fitness (often denoted w or ω in population genetics models) is a quantitative representation of individual reproductive success. It is also equal to the average contribution to the gene pool of the next generation, made by the same individuals of...

    Evolution, maybe someone can explain?

    Just a reminder. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fitness_(biology That is three dimensions but not relevant, you have taken an average of 120 steps in 120 different directions just in the mutations not present in either parent and that is before we get to recombination effects. Most of those...

    New lessons for an old man to learn.

    So far the President is still an employee of the country.

    New lessons for an old man to learn.

    Short version, con men make good sales-people, however, be careful of their promises to the client as mistakes there will reflect poorly on your business.

    Evolution, maybe someone can explain?

    Smart educated people and even most not so smart ones know for starters that evolutionary fitness is a population attribute and is not predictable or even calculable at the individual level. That is because we also know that evolution is a random walk with for example 120 steps since our...

    Evolution, maybe someone can explain?

    Colloquially yes, in the five year old looking at pictures sense, yes. If that is your point then fine I admit and agree. BUT, that has nothing to do with understanding evolution, only the strawman version of it. I hereby grant you a MAGA style Pyrrhic victory. .

    Questions that evolutionists and billions of years proponents cannot answer but disprove their theories.

    See the Bible predicted modern technology years ago, it must be troow.

    Evolution, maybe someone can explain?

    Actually in a monophyletic clade called fishes, if it includes the Coelacanth etc, yes it would, the problem is you don't know what you are talking about no matter how many times we explain it.

    Evolution, maybe someone can explain?

    As a rather silly meaningless hypothetical, yes, given enough time and some unknown set of selection pressures, yes evolution can come up with all sorts of solutions to all sorts of problems, but that is about it. Though I don't know why you suddenly added ancestors into it. Your father falls...

    2024 USA PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION DAY watch party.

    I have one conclusion after interacting with several hundred voters roughly equally from all parties, Arrogant ignorance beat ignorant arrogance. We shall suffer on until the ignorance is defeated by and arrogance is not getting us anywhere.

    Evolution, maybe someone can explain?

    Actually birds are fish by the same reality, just more evidence that neither of you understand the concepts of evolution regardless of your claims. No wonder you have problems, you think Jurassic Park is as accurate as the Bible. Oh wait, you might not be wrong in that. :) If the ancestor of...

    Evolution, maybe someone can explain?

    Unfortunately you stopped learning at that point, you heard the basic introductory class and never paid attention to the places where the concepts were developed. Convergent evolution does not make not-X into X, it only makes them X-like. In adult conversation there is a difference and it is...

    Forbes will be able to buy Trump's Scottish properties soon enough at the rate they are producing income. Yet another Trump business failure.

    Or an Englishman. Hawaiian Pizza is great, but beyond cultural memories of WWII, don't do it with Spam.

    2024 USA PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION DAY watch party.

    Yup just did 17 hours as election inspector in your favorite Peoples Republic. She failed to point out the ignorant arrogance of your demagogue, and tried to hard to rally around his misogyny. Slim chance Harris will win EC and lose the pop vote, but Drumpf won the ignorant vote and got them...

    Biden's Border Czar Said You Can't Fire Me I Quit !

    That we are seizing more at the border is a positive sign, and it is not the immigrants that are behind it. According to a 2022 report by the Cato Institute thinktank, US citizens made up 89% of convicted fentanyl traffickers in 2022...
