Sure, but we are all unlikely on the order of trillions. It must then be considered if the removal of any single example of the one in a trillion outcomes is important enough to to negate the future of the general gene pool.
The unique traits that any single individual passes on are 50% diluted each successive generation, rendering them to hereditary noise within just a few hundred years. The general pool of humanity will produce a virtual double of you at regular intervals in case the environment calls for it as a survival advantage.
Humans are an interesting lot. The family unit, in particular the offspring, benefit greatly from a traditional stable, mostly monogamous, marriage.
You and your personal DNA would seemingly benefit from disseminating that seed as often and as widely as possible. The clear winner? Children from good homes and stable situations.
There are billions of near copies. Any individual's DNA, lost forever to humanity, is not a tragedy... no matter our inflated self-worth.
GP is on the right track, if not for the right reasons. It is the genes in the offspring that must be considered.
Adoption is a great example of a child having an upbringing that is likely superior to the one she would've had biologically, and it makes sense that a woman would seek the security of her best mating even after she was pregnant with the child of an inferior mate.
Most importantly, there are seven billion virtual copies of you and your gene set... your genetic outcome is not as special as your psyche may need it to be.
I'm a legacy Amazon Prime subscriber, and I have a hard time not being embarrassed Trump is still in the race, but I don't demand that my top purveyor of goods stop selling his.
There is something dark in that request that resembles a thing that I was for blowing up later in my face.
Promising past indiscretions will not be repeated is a welcome voice from the CIA, especially considering it has been brought up in the Presidential primaries.
Of course, there's way to insure the future behavior of others, but at least they're talking about it.
If you have relatives of few resources, children and brother-in-laws for example, chances are pretty good your wifi has already been turned into a public one.
If they need something incriminating to justify kicking the door in, prior to administering some department-approved strikes, I suspect they have it.
FTA: They didn't find anything. Bultmann and Robinson, both board members of the Seattle Privacy Coalition, were released after being detained in a van, but they were left shaken and upset.
This is the electronic surveillance equivalent of being dragged off in cuffs at a sit-in.
If the aforementioned Bultmann and Robinson are unable to convert this high profile police action into activist capital, I'll have composite metal foam pancakes for breakfast.
I am a weekly member of the church of the truth is out there from when flip phone users Mulder and Scully first aired.
Yeah, it made me want that phone, and I can still remember people thinking that it was as cool as the Firebird popup headlights.
But no. People can't handle the truth about Global Warming and cardboard pretenders to the Presidency... so no, alien life would be widely interpreted as the promised return to earth of someone's religious savior.
6% is the percentage lost most often referenced on these united internets. That seems like an incredibly small number just considering the ubiquitous transmission lines you can observe as you travel pretty much everywhere.
The electricity is already there of you charge at night.
If you're correct, and the energy for reinvigorating the electric vehicles is available at night, I assume that must be in some places during some parts of the year. But. Even if we grant that the energy is generally available at night, there will be some number of procrastinators (or all night partiers) who still need daylight charging. People are a difficult lot to plan for.
You basically charge your car batteries with methane, unless you live in a district that primitively burns thermal coal.
The fact that a preponderance of people cannot do long-term loss calculation precludes the likelihood Nuclear is an option for you and yours.
Tesla3 (pre)sales estimates alone seem to suggest a couple million less barrels of oil per year... what are we going to be creating the additional electricity with?
I think they've proven willing to say they'd like your private information readily available to them to protect you from something, and the buzzword with the most impact at present is terrorist.
I think the powers that be just want to know what's going on.
It's for your own good, anyway, you ungrateful bastard.
I think it's a good idea to get ahead of this outbreak instead of waiting until the tipping point was near for widespread transmission.
Take not just the money from Ebola, take the lesson: don't let something this virulent get away from us.

Money well spent. Bad news spreads faster than the good variety, and its lifespan is in direct proportion to its infamy.
Your wife is turned on when you yell at the waitstaff?

but it is aliens.
It is a tough cause for most to get behind because of the exaggerated distance the good citizen finds between his fate and the street.
You can talk money til you're blue in the face, but watch this little spine tingler.
Yeah, it made me want that phone, and I can still remember people thinking that it was as cool as the Firebird popup headlights.

Wow... and there's nothing worse than having to reheat a dead finger for the third time on your dash with the defroster.
I know electricity transport has losses

Earthmen routinely pay $5000US per gram for some of them.
Congratulations!
You have destroyed everyone else's freedom along with your own.
It's also fairly recently believed to have been spread through sexual contact, after being thought of as primarily a mosquito borne disease.
