Kevin Durant, Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green are still under 30, Steve Kerr is younger than half the league's head coaches, and the Warriors have established an altruistic culture that attracts helpful veterans who're willing to play for less than the market says they're worth.

But I was also struck by how Whittaker's gleefully altruistic spin on the Doctor immediately felt more akin to Tennant's version than that of her immediate predecessor, Peter Capaldi (who imagined the character as a sort of gruff but good-natured building superintendent for the entire universe).

One of the most iconic crowd involvement moments in wrestling history took place in Toronto at Wrestlemania X8, when fans simply decided to cheer the heel Hulk Hogan over The Rock, prompting the then-dastardly "Hollywood" Hogan to revert back to his altruistic superhero ways of old mid-match.

It's worth noting that this echoes much of the altruistic, rich-savior rhetoric around Facebook's controversial Free Basics internet service — long criticized as an example of "digital colonialism" and of making developing countries dependent on Facebook for internet access (that is, when the free internet program worked at all).

Not only does it serve both selfish and altruistic means — it simultaneously puts you and your co-workers in a better position during salary negotiations — but pay transparency can even protect companies by "minimizing the risk of disparate treatment claims and increasing job satisfaction for workers," Ms. Cornell said.

Slim and I discussed his new healthy lifestyle, philanthropic endeavors outside of rap, and the motivation for the altruistic shift underscored in American King, all three of which serve as an awesome assertion that Slim is continuing to develop his creative skills while honing in on his virtues.

When that impulse to be altruistic goes left, you get incidents like Meek's recent fallouts with The Game and Beanie Sigel, which stemmed from an alleged phone call to Sean Kingston tying The Game to a robbery of the singer's money and jewelry in an LA nightclub back in June.

But I'm doubtful that I'll be able to keep the good in view alongside the bad, if the sequel continues to be a game that worships an order maintained at gunpoint, by people who continually try to pass-off their random, indiscriminate violence as a form of altruistic public service.

"It's an open question why anna-senpai released the source code for Mirai, but it's unlikely to have been an altruistic gesture: Miscreants who develop malicious software often dump their source code publicly when law enforcement investigators and security firms start sniffing around a little too close to home," he wrote.

These giants might point out that they're already being altruistic by offering free connectivity, through schemes that will plug in rural areas, vitalize the economy and transform the country — and just happen to add hundreds of millions of potential customers to their rosters for a variety of ads and e-products.

So whether it's for selfish or altruistic reasons, there could be a benefit to everyone, even the asymptomatic, wearing masks — as is standard and recommended by public officials in many Asian countries (including Taiwan and South Korea, both of which have done a better job containing Covid-19 than the US).

He is the kind of guy who responds to Rory's declaration of their pseudo-relationship ending not with acceptance, but rather with one last, Beatles-inspired Life and Death Brigade extravaganza, followed by a seemingly altruistic (but ultimately selfish) attempt to peer-pressure her into using his family's house in Maine to write.

As if to underscore how separate Hydra is from all those altruistic American hearts pumping red, white, and blue, the film reveals their infiltration through the cold, inhuman voice of a dead guy whose consciousness lives on in one of those old computers that only displays black and green; not us, them.

My research on suicide terrorism has demonstrated that affiliation with a group is quite different from the research of criminal justice professor Adam Lankford of the University of Alabama, who insists that many terrorists are suicidal and not sacrificing themselves for a greater cause or for some underlying altruistic motivation of self-sacrifice.

By the mid-1900s the world was being scoured by musicologists seeking to document and preserve, with ethnographic labels giving them altruistic support: Folkways in America, Topic in Britain and Ocora, set up by the French government initially to record the music of the French West African colonies as they moved towards independence.

Students who've not yet celebrated their 18th birthdays create multipage CVs, altruistic volunteer efforts must be repackaged as resume line items and the staggering price-tag of an American college education creates a scramble for parents to send their kids to the schools where an expensive experience will produce the best return.

Bernard is depicted in the manga as an altruistic and brilliant doctor, whose attempts at humanitarian aid are crushed by the inhuman interests of superstates like the EC. This sets him on a much more clearly motivated campaign of international terrorism to try to undermine the organizations that ruined his life and dreams.

More than that: based on the Greens' 3:1 model for purchase and donation, and exorbitant purchase prices for the post-2002 Dead Sea Scroll fragments (tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars each), they have likely made millions of dollars in profit just from their "altruistic" donation of these 16 fragments.

If the pious owners of a corporation can argue that their freedom is substantially burdened by a health-care plan, then it becomes a bit more plausible for an altruistic aid worker, or even a pacifist nun, to say that freedom is being curtailed unless they too are free to act on their ideals.

Not that we expected the Hero of Harlem to be behind bars for long when there's a superhero team-up in progress, but it's nice to see him getting back in the groove with Claire and riding the bus past Pop's Barber Shop like the good old days, with his altruistic streak still intact.

Hamilton's idea, which became known as kin selection, acknowledged that compared to a selfish person who never got their feet wet, someone who went around jumping into ponds to save drowning people would be at a greater risk of dying before they managed to reproduce and pass their altruistic genes on to their children.

A stark example of such abuse is the case of Mr. Luis F. Andrade – an American citizen – who left his Senior Partner position in McKinsey & company, to serve as the head of the infrastructure agency in the government of his parents' home country of Colombia, in an altruistic attempt to help that nation move forward.

I also don't know if I entirely believe in the too-neat scenario at the heart of the film, which has Joan perform a kind of exalted form of altruistic surrender (to borrow Anna Freud's resonant phrase) in exchange for proximity to "the literary life and the house by the sea," as Joe puts it.

A Philippines-based firm claims to be manipulating social media for political clients around the world, including Great Britain; Mexican campaigns for city and national offices use social media chicanery; and researchers at Google's altruistic technology outpost Jigsaw recently rented a Moscow-based outfit to run a disinformation campaign to test how its campaigns worked.

Given the way Facebook has royally screwed up everything about how it's handled politics — from being infiltrated by Russian ads in 2016 to the Cambridge Analytica scandal to its decision to let politicians say basically whatever the hell they want — there's no reason to believe Zuckerberg is acting in any sort of altruistic manner here.

Hamilton's rule, as it is now known, formalized this phenomenon as: rB > C Broken down, the formula suggests that genes for altruism will evolve if the cost (C) of them to the altruist are offset by the reproductive benefits (B) to those helped, multiplied by the probability (r) that the beneficiaries share the altruistic genes.

They were here before us, they will be here after us, and especially given that most of them live in the wild, where we have very limited knowledge of how to improve animal welfare, it would appear that their presence and moral weight turn the altruistic efforts of humans into … tinkering at the margins of the moral universe.

Caper combines image recognition and a weight sensor to identify items without a barcode scan Caper combines image recognition and a weight sensor to identify items without a barcode scan "I don't have an altruistic reason, but I really want to put a dent in the universe and I think retail is severely under-innovated," Gao candidly remarked.

The gaggle of pop stars who participated in the session might not have participated for purely altruistic reasons—Status Quo were only there because the police weren't likely to turn up to the studio, knock down the toilet doors, and confiscate their pharmacy's worth of narcotics—but their star power did a lot of good that year.

They've managed to portray to themselves and, to some degree to the world, certainly to the western world, the British Empire as some sort of benign exercise in altruism, which is far from being the truth … The fact is that it was neither benign nor altruistic; it was deeply rapacious, and deeply self-centered and self-benefiting.

So are the calls for "comprehensive immigration reform," or Hillary Clinton's assertions that "she would defend the president's executive actions on immigration and go further," altruistic in nature or, as we have often seen in many other government actions, motivated by the elimination of civil and criminal risk for the corporations with the boosting of their corporate profits.

At a time when we are seeing a huge groundswell of good works and charity to help our communities get through what is not just a public health crisis, but a social and economic one, the resulting rollout made the effort feel more a bit opportunistic than altruistic — both GoFundMe and Yelp are businesses, after all.

What they have engendered is a harmonious locker room, governed by an altruistic culture embodied by cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon's request to play special teams after he was benched in last week's victory over Minnesota, and a roster crafted to Lynch and Shanahan's specifications: Of the 22018 players who started against the Vikings, only five predate this administration.

But, after gaining a PhD in computer science and statistics from the University of Bonn in Germany, becoming a tenured professor at Stanford, numerous academic awards and accolades in the media, and his trailblazing stint at Google X, his ambitions would eventually become more worldly and altruistic: He wanted everyone to have the chance to learn the skills he had, wherever they were.

Some of these career moves could be considered altruistic—I went to work for Maine's senior senator, Olympia Snowe, as her speechwriter; for the undersecretary of state for global affairs as her senior adviser on democracy promotion; and for Freedom House, a democracy and human rights watchdog organization cofounded by Eleanor Roosevelt in the 20183s, as its director of Eurasian programs.

This experiment in emancipation had mixed results — an influx of altruistic volunteers known as Gideon's Band, the establishment of schools for the freed slaves, their conscription by the Union Army, and an economy that was self-sustaining but also undermined by capricious government decisions about distributing land — all of which foreshadowed the conflicts that would doom Reconstruction after the war.

Remembering these altruistic intentions helps me reach common ground with the parents who call the Office of Family Engagement to complain that their daughters are unable to register for their preferred classes, are intimidated by their professors, are not happy with the water pressure in the dorm showers, are worried their roommates don't like them or are dissatisfied with the food options on campus.

The idea that we're all motivated by the need to feel good about ourselves doesn't negate the good we can do in pursuit of feeling altruistic, and believing that it does is often the domain of smug assholes who resemble Mister Gotcha, a character in a comic from Matt Bors, who has never met a good deed he couldn't criticize because of its perceived less-than-wholesome motivations.

But it is a good reminder for us all that the biggest leaps forward in technology, the next steps on our journey towards a Matrix or Star Trek-like future, are not necessarily in the hands of altruistic scientists with public funding, but potentially in the hands of enormous private corporations who seem to primarily perceive humans as commodities, and technology as inroads into our wallets and minds.
