what is the 3x3x3 single WR boundary.

Lamarc-ian evolution.
Giraffes don't grow longer necks because their parents stretched them reaching for things. The fittest ones survived (aka ones born with taller necks) so this trait lived on.

Cubing has nothing to do with survival rates really, so this doesn't work much.

I forgot the example (so this isn't a very good post lol) but I think there have been a few instances where Lamarckian inheritance has been observed. Not as in giraffes and necks, but I think it was with toads maybe?

Super tongue stretching?

Epigenetics, however, is a very real thing. Though not exactly what you're talking about, it's close in a certain context.

How is epigenetics related to this fraud?

It's not, but it is related to Lamarckian ideas, in some sense.

 

[oprah62]

I don't really see what you are getting at, or at least not clearly. Isn't epigentics something humans take action on, where "Lamarkian theory" is nature?

Faz is a normal person like everyone else wtf is this?

That's exactly what I said. You took my post out of context...

TRUTH!

6 sec. That's it.

I have a hard time believing this.
AKA DISAGREEMENT!

How dare you attack my math with reality?

I thought maths was for real!

Evolution blah blah blah.... you people got it all wrong. All we need to do is selective breeding, have the fastest cubers f*** each other. And I bet people are thinking about this already. Why else do you think so many teenage boys practice so much to become fastest?

Breeding übercübers?

After a most awkward mystery event involving Erik Akkersdijk and Harris Chan, Stefan realizes that he should've added more detail to his proposal.....

@Stefan
you are reading my mind
Breeding übercübers? nice so sub 3 is possible!
or Gene-doped cubers in year 2020

Interesting question: do you guys think genetics has a significant influence on cubing? (I mean things that would make someone better - I'm not counting genetic problems that would prevent you from being fast, like hand deformities.) Can someone really have natural talent for cubing, or is being good simply a function of dedication, practice, community involvement, and cube knowledge?

Of course some things come easier to some people (you can call that genetics if you wish) but I believe it's though practice (and good practice, you can practice but poorly (aka not practicing lookahead/finger tricks))

But who would the male cubers...

Never mind.

 

[ukrcuber]

dude, i dont think anybody's gonna be that lucky to get sub-5 ever. whilst, i agree sub-6 is possible, but will be very tough to get

You're gonna bring Sarah into this aren't you. :rolleyes:
