But this is not blind evolution as we know it. Of course, if you want to speed up things you can use such techniques you are mentioning. But this techniques use prior knowledge for this particular set of problems. Evolution in general does not care about this. It has all the time it needs. > Moreover, the genetic code has evolved to evolve. I agree with that. > Neither Haskell nor any conventional language has. True. We should evolve also the language itself, not just programs.
