I know it's just an example but there is less drag the higher you go, unless you are thinking of some kind of ground-effect.

I am physically repulsed by the word "founder" when used to signify some sort of holy class of ascended beings.

Memes evolve too and have been dominant since about the invention of agriculture.

Hi Hoseja—

I am indeed talking about ground effect–that's why I included a link for "flying close to the surface reduces aerodynamic drag" which explains how it works.

I also specifically addressed how algorithms differ from memes in footnotes 4 and 14.

Curious to get your thoughts.
