Abiogenesis, Evolution and the Infinite Monkey Model

Attempting to explain to an extremely ignorant character the concept of the infinite model.

Then moving on to refining the model to make it compatable to the mechanism of natural design in the process of abiogenesis (different to the mechanism of evolutionary natural selection) and, to a lesser extent the natural selection process of evolution

you don't have to imitate an accent like that....it just denotes immaturity.

duly noted

This video is not quite accurate.

An infinite random string will necessarily contain the works of Shakespeare due to the fact that it cannot repeat. Therefore, it follows that it must eventually land on the correct sequence. This must be true as NOT landing on Shakespeare would require the string to repeat, and therefore, not be random.

The string will also contain moonlightbateman's full name, address, and phone number in that order. And yours. And mine.

I agree with what you say (and try to convey most of it) but a random sequence has no rules so I don't see why it wouldn't be able to repeat

Karl Pilkinton, you are my hero.

Your explanation was poor I know all the things you said but had a hard time following

[questionsamson]

When he said with no errors I was completely lost

[thisis3d]

i liked the slack jawed yokel accent, it fits dumb statements/questions so well. it is almost as if the accent was intelligently designed for it

What if the monkey only hit the space bar for eternity... after all it is the largest key on the keyboard... stupid monkey!
