i think the ability to regenerate our cells and live much much longer is possible right now and that the technology exists.
its just not in big money benefit to make it accessible. and obviously the propaganda machine is pushing sugar, soda, and toxic packaging to do the exact opposite of increase our life span.

Most of our brain cells are glial cells, once thought to be mere support cells, but now understood as having a critical role in brain function. Glial cells in the human brain are markedly different from glial cells in other brains, suggesting that they may be important in the evolution of brain function. |

When we talk about stem cells, we are actually talking about a complicated series of things, including adult stem cells which are largely cells devoted to replacing individual tissues like blood elements or liver or even the brain. |

Few people wear out before their time. Mostly they rust out, worry out, run out - spill out. A machine must have care and its different parts must be adjusted properly. No machine has ever approached the human machine. When it is right, it is in health. |

Technology has made it much easier to make and manipulate music. Studio-driven, machine-driven music does not always transcend into being a good live act. Many current acts are great live, but many cannot cut it live. The music is not organic. |

Nature is a machine. The family is a machine. The life cycle is like a machine. |

For example, a breakthrough in better batteries could supplant hydrogen. Better solar cells could replace or win out in this race to the fuel of the future. Those, I see, as the three big competitors: hydrogen, solar cells and then better batteries. |

As I look back at the span of the Cold War in those early days, in the '50s, for example, there was a great deal of Soviet propaganda here in the United States, but it was clumsy, and it was anchored to a lot of ideological support in certain circles in America itself. |

There were scenes that just for length purposes, and knowing that the attention span of kids is not great, don't make it much longer than about 90 minutes. |

I was recently thinking about aging. It's been my opinion for a while that we should just accept that we are going to grow old and die and that we have to get over it. I have now heard the argument, however, that the things that happen to us while we age are not unlike the things that happen to us when we get diseases and die. They went on to say that we should treat them the same and we should work on curing aging. This isn't to say that we should live forever, but that the flaws in the mechanisms that replicate our cells could be fixed or assisted and that we could live for a much longer time. I think it's interesting to think about and I agree that it is worth pursuing. Imagine if the life expectancy doubled. What great things could people accomplish if they had more time?

Having a bunch of money helps one live in cities and culture but thats what im calling out. I want to save enough money to get the supplies I need to live off of the grid or however you want to phrase it. But I don't believe I need to use that money to get there, it just would allow me to get certain materials / tools faster.

the technology to repair/regenerate living cells like a salamander would.
there is lots of secret gene splicing and mixing and matching of animal traits going on on the super hush. not too unthinkable that that would be one of the highest priority research, living longer.

BigMoney$-naire propaganda is so embedded that $$-man can say nonsense like "I am accumulating resources to help make life multiplanetary & extend the light of consciousness to the stars" and $-man's men will do all the work of arguing how noble that is

Despite common wisdom to the effect that money can?t buy happiness it is certain that many people
believe that enough money could make them happier than they are. Many people squander huge amounts
of time and energy, thinking about and trying to acquire money because of this belief. Even when they
are reasonably well off, people often make increasing acquisition and control of money a higher priority
than either self actualization or cultivation of relationships - leading to many of the personal and

Sleep Deprivation Disrupts Brain-Cell Communication, Study Finds (npr.org)
A new study published in the journal Nature Medicine found that sleep deprivation causes the bursts of electrical activity that brain cells use to communicate to become slower and weaker. "The finding could help explain why a lack of sleep impairs a range of mental functions, says Dr. Itzhak Fried, an author of the study and a professor of neurosurgery at the University of California, Los Angeles," reports NPR. From the report:
The finding comes from an unusual study of patients being evaluated for surgery to correct severe epilepsy. As part of the evaluation, doctors place wires in the brain to find out where a pat...

We saw everything as small metaphors for the origins of humanity. We hit all the major points. How did we get here? The war paint, the Tai Chi, fire, discovery, the commandments, friendship, love, jealousy, sacrifices, blessings, old technology and familiarity, unknown travelers of similar origins. Those who were in the exact same place in the past, doing the same basic things. Our version of the cycle was life changing and we represented all different aspects of humanity.

Mozilla Releases Open Source Speech Recognition Model, Massive Voice Dataset
Mozilla's VP of Technology Strategy, Sean White, writes:
I'm excited to announce the initial release of Mozilla's open source speech recognition model that has an accuracy approaching what humans can perceive when listening to the same recordings... There are only a few commercial quality speech recognition services available, dominated by a small number of large companies. This reduces user choice and available features for startups, researchers or even larger companies that want to speech-enable their products and services. This is why we started DeepSpeech as an open source project.

Well also that life still requires that we ground ourselves with relationships with others bc the authority of human nature demands it. But if you are trying to live without conforming to others values it's it may make you more antisocial than is healthy

A novice was trying to fix a broken Lisp machine by turning the power off and on.
Knight, seeing what the student was doing, spoke sternly: “You cannot fix a machine by just power-cycling it with no understanding of what is going wrong.”
Knight turned the machine off and on.
The machine worked.
