Memes generally replicate through exposure to humans, who have evolved as efficient copiers of information and behaviour.

Memes, analogously to genes, vary in their aptitude to replicate ; memes that are good at getting themselves copied tend to spread and remain, whereas the less good ones have a higher probability of being ignored and forgotten.

However, Spiral Dynamics does explicitly define a category of people labeled " Spiral Wizards " who have attained equilibrium around " higher level " Memes.

Memes, in this sense, are a philosophical method ; they aren't a scientific object.

According to Beck and Cowan, these conceptual models are organized around so-called < sup > v </ sup > Memes: systems of core values or collective intelligences, applicable to both individuals and entire cultures.

Memes are possibly the best example of viral patterns.

Among his best-known books are The Twilight of Atheism, The Dawkins Delusion, Dawkins ' God: Genes, Memes, and the Meaning of Life, and A Scientific Theology.

* Memes are also Interactors

Memes themselves are neither good nor bad.

“ Memes stay in memory and they are affected by marketers ”.

Memes do this through the processes of variation, mutation, competition and inheritance, each of which influence a meme's reproductive success.

Memes spread through the behaviors that they generate in their hosts.

Memes that propagate less prolifically may become extinct, while others may survive, spread and ( for better or for worse ) mutate.

Memes that replicate most effectively enjoy more success, and some may replicate effectively even when they prove to be detrimental to the welfare of their hosts.

Memes can replicate vertically or horizontally within a single biological generation.

Memes spread by the behaviors that they generate in their hosts.

Memes spread in cognitive transmission do not count as self-replicating.

Memes play a comparable role in understanding the evolution of imitated behaviors.

Memes that fit within a successful memeplex may gain acceptance by " piggybacking " on the success of the memeplex.

Richard Dawkins notes ( in Blackmore 2000: The Meme machine, page 13 ), that Memes can be copied in a Lamarckian way ( copying of the product ) or in a Weismann-type evolutionary way ( copying of the instruction ) which is much more resistant against changes.

* Josephson, B. D., 1993: " All in the Memes ", New Statesman & Society, 6, 28-29.

The company's website, Cracked. com, continued on and has become known for its humorous lists and compilations, for example, " The 9 Most Obnoxious Memes to Ever Escape the Web ", " 6 Bizarre Forms of Discrimination That Can Lose You a Job " A book collection in that vein, You Might be a Zombie, and Other Bad News, was published in 2010.

In the 2010s, the Organization abandoned Joshua, who then joined the Reconstruction after the Eurowar and worked in Quito, Ecuador on the GeoSync Cable and saw with Alice the beginning of the development of memes that would unify all countries and religions, leading to the War of the Memes ( referred to in some of Barnes ' other books ) that culminated in the takeover of Earth by One True.

Alice runs away, and the Organization finds and rehires Joshua to fight in the War of the Memes, for One True.

From Sadi, whom Joshua had met as a woman after the Eurowar and was partnered with when Sadi was male during the War of the Memes, Joshua learns that it's possible to go through the singularity to 1988, when the technology to construct it was first built and put into orbit by the Soviets.

One town and one city, Coventry and East Providence, require an adjustment of their fiscal year only.

This can only be for one of two reasons: either the two are quite different and will require totally different theory ( and hence techniques ), or our existing theories are insufficiently general.

In these terms, the `` economic withdrawal '' of the Negroes of Nashville, Tennessee, from trading in the center city, for example, was clearly justified, since these distinctions do not require that only people subjectively guilty be singled out.

Because Christianity teaches not only salvation in history, but salvation by the history of Christ, such an interpretation of death would require a drastic revision of the Christian understanding of the work of Christ.

Syllabaries typically contain 50 to 400 glyphs ( though the Múra-Pirahã language of Brazil would require only 24 if it did not denote tone, and Rotokas would require only 30 ), and the glyphs of logographic systems typically number from the many hundreds into the thousands.

" The problem then becomes that of constructing a well-ordering, which turns out to require the axiom of choice for its existence ; every set can be well-ordered if and only if the axiom of choice holds.

The control logic functions, which only needed to operate once per drum rotation and therefore did not require electronic speed, were electromechanical, implemented with relays.

Micro-AP on the other hand covers data that show minute differences that require statistical analysis to rule out expected data that was only randomly generated.

However, evidence indicates that harmala alkaloids act only on MAO-A, in a reversible way similar to moclobemide ( an antidepressant that does not require dietary restrictions ).

However, not all symptoms require heavy medication and hallucinations and delusions should only be treated if they distress the patient or produce dangerous behaviors.

It was built with only the upper roadway as traffic demands did not require more capacity.

Years later, he decided that this sort of experience had provided him with not only an interest in design, but also a habit of being familiar with and knowledgeable about the materials that his later projects would require.

The North American agencies will only require these standards for new device submissions, while the EU will take the more severe approach of requiring all applicable devices being placed on the market to consider the home healthcare standard.

Fortunately, faster methods have been developed which require only O ( p ( log p )< sup > 2 </ sup >) operations ( see big-O notation ).

Of course, this is only possible when the application tends to require many steps which apply one operation to a large set of data.

With longer sets ( more than ~ 40 people ) this would require long enough sets that the caller will usually only run the dance all the way around on ( rare ) non equal-turn dances.

Positive consequentialism demands that we bring about good states of affairs, whereas negative consequentialism may only require that we avoid bad ones.

A more strenuous version of negative consequentialism may actually require active intervention, but only to prevent harm from being done.

For this reason, some theorists have argued that consequentialist theories can only require agents to choose the best action in line with what they know about the situation.

In this case, if a proof uses this statement, researchers will often look for a new proof that doesn't require the hypothesis ( in the same way that it is desirable that statements in Euclidean geometry be proved using only the axioms of neutral geometry, i. e. no parallel postulate.

Thus, covalent bonding does not necessarily require the two atoms be of the same elements, only that they be of comparable electronegativity.

Licensing in these categories require not only examinations but also a minimum of flight hours.
