it's notable that the missing time period is longer than the entire time period since, including basically all of known evolution. immediately prior to the discontinuity, there is only very simple life, and immediately after, life is significantly more complex, but also highly constrained, as after a mass extinction.
i just like to think about this sometimes. it brings me a deep sense of peace
- codesnik 5y agopeace? why?
- morphle 5y agoRead his book or watch Feynman explain [1][2] for one of many answers. Pondering these questions and learning about them gives joy, excitement, peace of mind and is my great hobby. So much so that I recently purchased 21 hectare of mountain for $9000 and emigrated there so I can study erosion (geology), wildlife, flowers and forest (biology and evolution) and dig for fossils in my own garden. And still read science and hacker news online. Feel free to come and visit, either camping or residing in a tiny house on my mountain[3]. I'll play science and nature guide in the Sierra de Cazorla, Segura and other mountain ranges.

- codesnik 5y agoTo have your own mountain just to dig it up and ponder about stuff! What an usual idea. I'll remember your comment, thank you. Who knows, maybe I'll pass by sooner or later.
- morphle 5y agoMaybe we could explore this thought together. It could lead to new research.
