Hi Patrick, I would appreciate any contribution you and other biologists would care to make to the thread I created for codes other than DNA.
It seems to me that codes as defined by Shannon information theory pop up everywhere in the domain of biology. If that is correct, it provides an important counterweight to the “DNA as code” argument that many ID proponents make.
However, I am not a biologist, so I would like to get the opinion of experts like you and the other biologists here (@swamidass @sygarte @John_Harshman @Mercer etc.) before I draw any conclusions.
Thanks! And a happy new year to you!
Chris
