Allusions to evolution: Edifying evolutionary biology rather than economic theory

The „selection arguments‟ advanced by Alchian (1950) and Friedman (1953) were clearly meant to boost confidence in neoclassical economics. But whereas Friedman didn‟t show the slightest reservation, Alchian warned economists “not to push their luck too far” in relying on the argument. Alchian‟s warning spurred some economists (such as Nelson and Winter) to engage with evolutionary theorizing in...

Deprenyl Can Mediate Neuronal Protection Rather than Neuronal Rescue

Background and Objective: Deprenyl is a drug for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, where the dopaminergic neurons are the target of this drug. Several reports also documented that deprenyl has an effect on the sensory and motor neurons. There are some reports about the mode of action of deprenyl on m...

Granulysin for Anticryptococcal Activity NK Cells Use Perforin Rather than

Perihemorheology rather than parahemorheology.

However, the use of the term parahemorheology has been criticized, because the prefix para implies that the rheology of fluids and structures in the perivascular spaces is secondary and less important than that of the vessel-blood organ. It is also imprecise, once it does not refer to the fluids and structures being considered. By contrast, the term perihemorheology implies the rheology of flui...

Simplicity Rather Than Knowledge

I’ve spent over 20 years implementing algorithms for Boolean minimization, with particular application to area optimization of large semiconductor circuits. This exploration has included almost all published algorithms, dozens of conventional and exotic data structures, over two dozen programming languages and styles, and almost every level of implementation, from reconfigurable silicon through...
