Computer's and networks do not 'evolve' by themselves, they are intelligently designed. Like all things done by intelligent beings they build upon what has been previously found to work. No one reinvents the wheel, no one reinvents binary computing. People build upon these previous systems and discoveries. So much so that the width of our present roads was originally defined by the width of road necessary to carry a Roman chariot. This intelligence at work, not some mystical 'evolution' advancing our scientific and practical knowledge. In fact, when claiming that such things have evolved, the evolutionists are really showing the religious, not scientific nature of their theory.
Now you're quote mining me. Kinda cool actually.
In science, analogy is sometimes used to illustrate a point. I posted it to show that Shapiro is only proposing using analogies to illuminate evolutionary concepts in biology. The result of this approach led to the automated diagnostic testing machines that dominate the market today.
There is no non-Darwinian science here.
