Allright you all-
Although chiming in without having read the entire thread is probably
an error with you all, re Vladimyr's intriguing comments below:
I agree completely, although I do not see this as an uncomfortable
conclusion. I see it as less hubristic and more integrated. Must be my
lack of sperm.
How can you identify in the moment which aberrations will lead to
evolution, versus which aberrations will lead to atrophy?
Development over enough time changes circumstances so that former
criteria are no longer accurate.
I've never seen a dynamic evolving system without random noise,
errors, unexpected elements, unpredictability, weirdness and the like
in there. Responses to these elements are what drive dynamism and
evolution.
A pristine corruption-free state is stagnant. Non-complex. No
emergence. Problem-solving around 'corruption' is a motivator for
growth.
Enjoying this tremendously. Thanks, Vlad-

for an ideal system to be constructed that is immune to corruption.
... In fact evolution is simply corruption, the positive or
negative attributes are simply the consequence of observer
perspective.
