There is almost too much going on these days to keep up with! I'll try to let you in on some of the craziness:
Front-loading
A lot of people have been discussing front-loading. Here's some of the links:
- UD and TT are both doing discussion posts on the front-loading hypothesis of Michael Sherman. Here's the UD link and the TT link.
- MikeGene has two posts on what he considers misunderstandings about front-loading (part 1 and part 2). I hope to find time to write about this, because I think MikeGene misunderstands his misunderstanders a bit, and then part 2 almost completely wipes out his criticisms of part 1. But we'll have to talk later if I have the time. In the meantime, after reading part 2, you should check out my review of an old paper about monophyly.
- More front-loading stuff around the web:
New Blogs I'm Watching
I've found several blogs. These two appear to be very interesting indeed:
Other Stuff
If I blogged on all that stuff, I'd never sleep! Hope some of it interests you.
