[FRIAM] stygmergy, CA's, and [biological] development

[Marcus Daniels]

Could be.  But isn’t it obvious that writing a CA in some imperative language requires less hand wringing?    What is the payoff?   So much of this stuff ends up coming across as “Look you can do the thing you already knew how to do!”  What can I do that I couldn’t do before?

It is hard to find the motivation to invest much in category theory when the practical considerations are left as an exercise to the reader.
