Cold early mornings have come around again so quickly; the gyres turn whether we like it or not. View in LinkedIn

THE UNIT OF NATURAL SELECTION. “Richard Dawkins, in his book, The Selfish Gene (1976), expressed vividly what seems to be the prevailing view among geneticists with respect to natural selection: that it is the gene, not the individual of group, that is the unit.” https://lnkd.in/dpapSK2b View in LinkedIn

THE NUT. “To reemphasize: mere reversal of spacetime paths cannot be a symmetry operation. The claim of this essay is that we can only resolve this contradiction using present theory through the hypothesis below.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

NEW PHYSICS. “Reversing the events needs different laws (if indeed one could describe such strange processes as law-like), reversing the laws produces different events.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

REVERSED TIME. “In the case of time we apparently have no way in current theory to meet Weyl's definition, since reversible mathematics produces an irreversible flow of events.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

SYMMETRY DEFINITION. “Another way to express this is to use R.P. Feynman's interpretation of Weyl's definition of symmetry as follows: a thing is symmetrical if one can subject it to a certain operation and it appears exactly the same after the operation.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

LACKING SYMMETRY. “On the other hand, no processes that in any way resemble the reverse of the existing laws can find and exactly manipulate those unique (but indistinguishable!) particles needed to exactly reverse the history of their own movements. There is no symmetry here.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

TIME REVERSAL PROBLEM. “It should be very clear from the above that reversing the laws of physics and the mechanisms behind chemistry and biology cannot produce a reversed copy of history.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

Oysters are not a favorite in Catalonia but 50 kms over the border into France, and they are a delicacy: the strange thin line separating cultures. View in LinkedIn

CANCER AS SPECIES. “Heritable genomic variation and natural selection have long been acknowledged as striking parallels between evolution and cancer. The logical conclusion, that cancer really is a form of speciation, has seldom been expounded directly.” https://lnkd.in/dgvfyNj9 View in LinkedIn
