spencer returned to survival of the fittest, and social darwinism had been born. darwin didn't help his own cause in the subtitle for the book including the line on the preservation of faith of races. i can imagine going in a book shop in 1859, an average englishman, picked up the book and saw favored races, i would not think of worms as the favored races, but would be thinking about british empire builders in england. so there was this social impact, and over time i think what we saw was a very, very big impact op our society by these darwinian ideas. everything from national socialism to genetics to economics have been born some form of darwinism thinking, particularly as mediated through the likes of spencer, so i, as i was beginning to look at the prosises that create -- process that created us, i reread darwin, and begin to think perhaps we were selfish, short sided by another process. it's this man here that gave me hope that may not necessarily be the case. wallace lived a full life dying at the age of 90. at the age of 80, he was still writing. in fact, i

fittest. if you have a table go under the table. look above you, what's going to fall. what's going to hit your head. most of the chairs decent. if you are in a movie theatre or stadium what do you do? the same thing. these chairs are not heavy dutiy but covering your head is most important. if it's an empty room go against the wall and cover your head. a lot of cut in disaster heads and arms will get cut. those you can control the bleeding where as the head injury is harder. cover your head, the most important thing to do. we cover, beaware. 15 seconds. in the marina people said it felt like a minute. if you are covering yourself under the table and it's shaking what will happen in 30 seconds? you look up, where's the table. hold on to the table. if you are inside, stay in don't go from the known to the unknown. if you are downtown in an office building or shopping at macy's, do you run in the middle of the street? no. you stay where you are. how much time do you have? seconds. you have to make a decision within seconds. if you run to the street what will happen? >> ge

conversations they've heard happy people respond and then rise that somehow or it's like a survival of the fittest type of mechanism well it's kind of it's a it's a learning algorithm components and puts them together based on statistics whether or not he really understands what it's saying the short answer is probably no but in a more philosophical sense it's difficult to tell whether anybody understands any of people will be repeating or things the earth sometimes without understanding it and so many children are sometimes that's how conversations are by copying and putting phrases to go so to a large extent it's kind of copying a human learning mechanism. but how does this differ from some of the other robots that are out there of course we know if you look at some of the japanese companies they already have robots that can conduct weddings for people they have robots that can take care of the elderly i mean it's amazing what those machines do how is this different source for us this is a robot just really. it's the process of text it synthesizes we connected it to a component person decides hi

the fittest men went up first. mario sepulveda was the second to reach the top.he seemed happy to be there. victor zamora, the roof repairman, made a movie of it all-- the rescuer's landing, getting suited up for the ride. then, liftoff and 20 minutes in a magic capsule. the docking and a love scene. hollywood couldn't have done better. ( cheers and applause ) the 33 were treated to a victory tour. highlights? meetings with america's top celebrities; galas, where they just kept on receiving awards; an appearance on the david letterman show. miner edison peÑa didn't have the slightest idea who letterman was, but he was having a wonderful time. back in copiapoÓ, though, peÑa was hospitalized for anxiety and depression. and he was not alone. mario sepulveda, that most exuberant of men, is on heavy medication. the oldest miner, mario gomez, finds it impossible to sleep. and alex vega? he can't explain why he's doing it, but he's building a wall around his house. >> vega ( translated ): whenever i hear a noise, i get scared and look all around me. my heart beats faste

within five years herbert spencer had claimed the term survival of the fittest and social darwinism had been born. darwin did not help his cause in the subtitle he picked which included the line on the preservation of favored races. i am mad and going into a book shop in 1859 as an average englishmen picking on this book, wouldn't have been thinking about worms as favored races. you would think of the british empire builders and stuff like that. there was this social impact. overtime what we saw was deep impact on society by these darwinian ideas. everything from national socialism to eugenics' to classical economics have borne some inkling of darwinian thinking particularly as mediated through herbert spencer. as i was beginning to look at the process that created us, i reread richard dawkins's selfish gene and reread darwin and began to despair that perhaps we were selfish, shortsighted, ruthless entities forged by and a moral and utterly cool process but this man here gave me hope that that may not be the case. alfred russel wallace live the full life guy get the age of 90. at the ag

within five years the kind it turned the survival of the fittest. is social darwinism had been born. it did not really help his cause in the subtitle he picked, which included the line on the preservation of favored races. unless you're going into a bookshop, every sort of englishmen and pick up this book, i would not have been thinking about worms as the favorite. you would be thinking about british empire builders stuff like that. and so there was this social impact. over time i think what we saw was a very, very deep impact on our society by these ideas. national socialism, jennings, economics, born some darwinian thinking. particularly as needed through the life of her ribs the answer. so, as i was beginning to look at the process that created less, reread darwin. began to despair that we were selfish, shortsighted, roofless entities for used by the cruel process. but it was this man here that really gave me hope that that may not necessarily be the case. also, the very long and full life dying at the age of 90. at the age of 80 he was still wri

like areas of india where they just left, you know, the doctrine of the right is the survival of the fittest. every man for a self. and if that happens that means society becomes a jungle. and civilization, you know this. your show is reap with it. civilization is but a thin veneer of civility stretched across the pashas of the human heart, and we have to work to keep that civilization at when people would draw whether consent and to withdraw their support from a then you are right close to a reversion to a pre civilization society. that is what troubles me about the elites today who suffer from, i think, the worst of all religious sense, which is malignant narcissism.
