Agreed. It's a matter of different scaling across time and space.https://twitter.com/Failed_Buddhist/status/1044760363185639424 …

Genes: take longer time to mutate, operates in confined internal space. Environment: changes moment by moment in vast external space.
-
Genes don’t take a long time to mutate
-
Mutation of new inheritable genotypes, not mutations that die off immediately through autophagy.
-
There are de novo germline mutations every generation that do not die off, but fail to reproduce because they are selected against.
-
That's not what people refer to when they say "nature", and it's still way slower than effects of what people consider as "nurture". And you're missing the main point which is that both affect one another in complex, inseparable ways.
-
When people refer to “nurture” they mean events that happen after birth, eg social influences such as whether your mother loved you enough
-
Right. Nurture can iterate many times within the same person. Nature can only iterate again next generation.
-
Except there’s little evidence how much your mother loved you, or whether you went to a good school versus a bad one, or any other social factor, has any measurable impact.
