Visual Selection
Introduction
Many moons ago, back in 2008, while in a debate on an atheist-oriented phpBB site (as was the fashion back then), I ended up writing a couple of scripts, in ruby, to illustrate a point about how mutation and selection can, given enough time, result in something with the appearance of design.
The code was far from a mic-drop body of evidence (it wasn't meant to be), I think it did an okay job of showing how nothing more than just mutating something and selecting for the "fitter" options can get you somewhere meaningful given enough time.
No matter, either you get the illustration or you don't. That's not important.
Fast forward 15 years and I was thinking that a Textual version of the code might be fun.
This is a version of
selection.
Turns out it is fun!
