You really think Halliburton or Exxon Board of directors is run by Born Again Christians? Seriously? They might be 'christian' but they aren't the demographic voting for Trump. Hillary is just as appealing if not more to them. Trump is a loose cannon.
"straight white Christian Americans, the most privileged and powerful group in the known universe"
Really? This group is shrinking rapidly and mostly lower middle class.
Hitler is a lot more logical- if you take moral relativism to the extreme there is nothing wrong with what he did.
He did get kind of crazy at the end when the amphetamine abuse caught up with him.
Sure we can make it but none of the paper blueprints or manufacturing techniques are used today, so the entire process will have to be designed from scratch.
It is from the oil on the road that floats when it rains after a long dry spell. It isn't nearly as big a problem as it used to be, I think in general new cars tend to be less leaky. You would be amazed at the amount of research that has gone into gaskets.
It's way better looking than the Tesla, and if they give it a really smart german interior it will look better on the inside too. I think porsche wanted to make a distinct electric model that wouldn't get confused with 911 or boxster.
I think that this has to do with the perspective of 'lower tier' programmers. First of all, I want to point out that this isn't meant pejoratively. I don't have a degree and have been developing for >15 years. What I mean by this is there is a large market and need for people to develop for small businesses, usually on typical business workflows. I would suggest that many of the degreed people that work in this market may not be as motivated or talented as the ones that go on to work for wall street, silicon valley or in critical roles at a large company(lets call this first tier).
For guys like me that grew up in a lower middle class family, making ~six figures with no degree working the lower tier sounds like a pretty good proposition. So perhaps some are seeing things from under the glass ceiling.....
I would argue just the opposite- life extension in pets would help us to better understand the ethical implications of life extension without having to commit to them.
Maybe they would get some disease that has never been observed before, or there is some part of them that would consistently fail. If their quality of life was poor they could be euthanized without triggering an ethical dilemma, as most pet owners already do this for their pets.
A lot of the veterinary care we give them is predicated on living ~15 years. If you anticipate that they would live a lot longer expect to treat them like a humans- such as going to the dentist every 6 months, regular checkups etc.
Eugenics is selective breeding- this is repairing abnormality in genes. In the first case someone existence is null, in the other they are preventing abnormality in a person.

Yes, pretty liberal actually not sure how he got tied in with Goldwater.

Unless there is extremely deep pools of water following the speed limit has enough built in safety factor to operate safely when it is wet.

I have a composite filling that is 27 years old and never had issues with it. I chew ice and haven't been particularly careful.
Is this even true? Most of the major free software developers have degrees.
This would be more like a music program at a conservatory.

You aren't making any sense. Joint issues, like cancer are an edge case.
Young people can get cancer too but it is extremely rare- not talking about edge cases here.
This are all old age diseases. We would assume that such a therapy would negate them.

Didn't pay thousands of dollars and invest countless hours so children could have death experience.
You are just holding it wrong!
You have to admit that being a Harvard Professor in genetics gives him slightly more cache then coming from an adjunct at your community college.
Unless there is something architectural in existence or a burial ground these things shouldn't even be allowed to go to hearing.
What was the purpose of the first paragraph? And yes, I am very sorry and feel directly responsible for something Eric Raymond said.
I see lots of intelligent, otherwise perfect unemployed people in our future

How about publishing a set of standards and tests that critical infrastructure companies must utilize?
