The chicken or the eggcausalitydilemma is commonly stated as the question, 'which came first: the chicken or the egg?' The dilemma stems from the observation that all chickens hatch from eggs and all chicken eggs are laid by chickens. 'Chicken-and-egg' is a metaphoric adjective describing situations where it is not clear which of two events should be considered the cause and which should be considered the effect, to express a scenario of infinite regress, or to express the difficulty of sequencing actions where each seems to depend on others being done first. Plutarch posed the question as a philosophical matter in his essay 'The Symposiacs', written in the 1st century CE.^[1][2]

Ancient paradox[edit]

The question represents an ancient folk paradox addressing the problem of origins and first cause.^[3]Aristotle, writing in the fourth century BCE, concluded that this was an infinite sequence, with no true origin.^[3] Plutarch, writing four centuries later, specifically highlighted this question as bearing on a 'great and weighty problem (whether the world had a beginning)'.^[4] In the fifth century CE, Macrobius wrote that while the question seemed trivial, it 'should be regarded as one of importance'.^[4]

By the end of the 16th century, the well-known question seemed to have been regarded as settled in the Christian world, based on the origin story of the Bible. In describing the creation of animals, it allows for a first chicken that did not come from an egg. However, later enlightenment philosophers began to question this solution.^[4]

Scientific resolutions[edit]

Although the question is typically used metaphorically, evolutionary biology provides literal answers, made possible by the Darwinian principle that species evolve over time, and thus that chickens had ancestors that were not chickens,^[4] similar to a view expressed by the Greek philosopher Anaximander when addressing the paradox.^[3]

If the question refers to eggs in general, the egg came first. The first amniote egg—that is, a hard-shelled egg that could be laid on land, rather than remaining in water like the eggs of fish or amphibians—appeared around 312 million years ago.^[5] In contrast, chickens are domesticated descendants of red junglefowl and probably arose little more than eight thousand years ago, at most.^[6]

If the question refers to chicken eggs specifically, the answer is still the egg,^[7] but the explanation is more complicated. The process by which the chicken arose through the interbreeding and domestication of multiple species of wild jungle fowl is poorly understood, and the point at which this evolving organism became a chicken is a somewhat arbitrary distinction. Whatever criteria one chooses, an animal nearly identical to the modern chicken (i.e., a proto-chicken) laid a fertilized egg that had DNA identical to the modern chicken (due to mutations in the mother's ovum, the father's sperm, or the fertilised zygote).^{[8][4][9][10]} Put more simply by Neil deGrasse Tyson: 'Which came first: the chicken or the egg? The egg—laid by a bird that was not a chicken.'^[11]

It has been suggested that the actions of a protein found in modern chicken eggs may make the answer different.^[9][10] In the uterus, chickens produce ovocleidin-17 (OC-17), which causes the formation of the thickened calcium carbonate shell around their eggs. Because OC-17 is expressed by the hen and not the egg, the bird in which the protein first arose, though having hatched from a non-reinforced egg, would then have laid the first egg having such a reinforced shell: the chicken would have preceded this first 'modern' chicken egg.^[9][10] However, the presence of OC-17 or a homolog in other species, such as turkeys,^[12] and finches^[13] suggests that such eggshell-reinforcing proteins are common to all birds,^[14] and thus long predate the first chickens.

Since the beginning of Apple history, Steve Jobs and his team in Cupertino have been secretly adding tons of fun prompts and games into hidden parts of Mac OS X. In celebration of the Easter holiday coming up, we've collected our favorite Mac 'Easter Eggs' for you to enjoy:

1. Find Famous Dates in History: To find a list of 'famous dates in history,' open your 'Terminal' (under Utilities). Enter this line of code into your Terminal window: cat /usr/share/calendar/calendar.history. From there, a list of important events on any given day of the year throughout history will pop up for your reference.
   
2. Play Snake, Tetris, or Pong: Also through Terminal (in Utilities) you can open up mini games hidden in your Mac computer. With your Terminal type in: emacs. From there, press 'X' and the escape key at the same time. Enter in either 'snake' 'tetris' or 'pong' depending on the game you want to play (without quotes) and you'll have a fully functioning game open right then and there.
3. Enable 'Suck' Minimizing Effect: 'Suck' is one of Mac's hidden minimizing/ maximizing effects. It's pretty simple, but if you're looking to shake things up a bit, it's pretty easy to put into effect. Open 'Terminal' (in 'Utilities') and enter the prompt: defaults write com.apple.dock mineffect -string suck. You will need to restart your 'dock' to turn on this function now. This can be done by restarting your Mac or 'quitting' your dock in 'Activity Monitor.' Once you quit your dock, it will immediately restart, enabling the 'Suck' effect when minimizing/ maximizing windows.
4. Speak to a Psychotherapist: Under the same prompt as games (Utilities> Terminal> 'emacs' > press 'x' and the Esc key at the same time), you can enter the word 'doctor' in as a command. A prompt as a 'psychotherapist' will come up. The instructions say to enter 'RET RET' after anything typed to enter text. It works better on older versions of Mac OS X. It also has been described as a caveman version of Siri. Besides that, we still appreciate it.
   
5. Watch Star Wars: Open Terminal and enter 'telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl' to start a screening of Star Wars in ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) art. We know, this is our favorite one too.
6. Enable 'Genie' Slow Motion Effect: If you hold down the shift button while minimizing (or maximizing) a window, it will open (or close) in slow motion.
7. Bake Cookies: Okay, so your computer won't bake cookies for you, but you can find Mrs. Field's recipe on your Mac. Open your Terminal and enter 'open /usr/share/emacs/22.1/etc/COOKIES.' After that point, you have to bake them yourself, but maybe someday…
   
8. Play a game like 'Mud': Like most of the things listed, you can also open this interaction 'game' through your terminal. Enter: emacs -batch -l dunnet. There are some simple instructions you can use to help you through the prompt given. 'Take the shovel' & 'go North' are a few of them. The game will guide you in a yes/no kind of fashion.If you type a command that doesn't exist in the game, it will simply respond 'I don't understand that.'Type 'Inventory' at any point to take a record of anything you've acquired through this game. This one's a real time killer.
9. Donate to charity: Through Terminal, you can open 'Charityware.' Type in: vi. The prompt will tell you ways to donate to needy children in Uganda.
10. Find a Lord of the Rings timeline: Also in Terminal, type in 'cat /usr/share/calendar/calendar.lotr' for a list of dates, marking important events in the LOTR timelines. For other calendars, start a new Terminal prompt and enter 'ls /usr/share/calendar' from there, you can replace '.lotr' in the first code with any of the listed items.
