Ithink you could be more charitable in your reply. Transistors were developed to replace tubes in telephone systems... Okay but the tubes had been developed to where they were because of their usefulness in radio.
And while computers don't inherently rely on radio, it's radio communication that's taken computers from one in every office to one in everyone's pocket. Right? The main thrust of the previous commenter is true.
Just like how the law equally prevents the rich and the poor from sleeping under bridges.
I think the irreducible complexity debate is over. Creationist scientists will continue to publish "but maybe" arguments because defending creationism is part of their identity, but its just a "but maybe this gap in human knowledge proves XYZ". They are starting with a conclusion and looking for arguments that it isn't impossible.
In the video where he's shooting antique guns (or something) with his son, his son always calls him "sir". Is that a regional thing? It seemed super weird to me.
I'm a different person weighing in here:
When you said:
The T3SS is one of the most complex bacterial molecular machines, incorporating one to over a hundred copies of more than 15 different proteins into a multi-MDa transmembrane complex (Table 1). The system, especially the flagellum, has, therefore often been quoted as an example for “irreducible complexity,” based on the argument that the evolution of such a complex system with no beneficial intermediates would be exceedingly unlikely. However, it is now clear that, far from having evolved as independent entities, many secretion systems share components between each other and with other cellular machineries (Egelman, 2010; Pallen and Gophna, 2007).
I ofc am just a layman reading this, I agree it seems better understood that how I interpreted what he was saying, but it also doesn't seem nearly as well understood as you're saying.
IMO it's a problem with the article. The article says that T3SS is cited as an example as something that's "irreducibly complex". I suppose that it's true that it is cited as that. But the second part of the paragraph explains why it isn't true that it's "irreducibly complex". The paragraph isn't explicit enough because the paragraph has probably evolved to be something that's true and equally dissatisfying to both sides.
The printer I had in the 90s wouldn't print black and white without color ink either.
Yeah, the enslaving states actually wanted to count them as full people, for that purpose. 3/5 was a compromise with the free states. It really shows the power of motivated reasoning.
I remember learning about the denial of the denial of the anti Muslim comments years ago. It's offensive that America would send this troglodyte to us.
So if I'm in Vancouver BC it would go from Friday to Saturday in the mid afternoon? Is Friday night the first night of the weekend or the last night of the work week?
I could be convinced that there is a part of Paris that is like that. It doesn't look like a part of Paris anyone would want to spend much time in though.
I think that is just how monotheists prefer to translate it, I believe "before" is more impartial.
I think the establishment is actually quite sensitive to unemployment figures because people that are unemployed have time to demonstrate.
