Gah, some of this is worded so poorly:
"Thanks to the Human Genome Project, medicine is now information technology, and we’re learning how to reprogram this outdated software of our bodies exponentially."
What does this even mean?
"We’ll be able to send little devices, nanobots, into the brain and capillaries, and they’ll provide additional sensory signals, as if they were coming from your real senses."
Yes, the magic of -~=nanomachines=~-!
Some of it is not unreasonable, some of it is tame (VR), and some of it is hogwash.
- Spearchucker 13y agoWhat does this even mean? Is this a common/standard way of disagreeing with how something is phrased, is it derogatory, or are you really not able to parse the meaning of that sentence? Sincere question. I saw this same phrase used a while ago by someone else, and while the sentence it referred to was as poorly worded as the one you refer to, parsing the meaning is easy. Isn't it?
- angersock 13y agoSo, if I were to say, "what does this mean?" I am usually asking either a question or posing a question I immediately intend to answer. The addition of the "even" intensifier usually signals exasperation or annoyed bewilderment.
- pessimizer 13y agoI have no idea how to program exponentially. Or, choosing a different way to parse the sentence, I have no idea how to learn exponentially. I really don't know what the sentence is supposed to mean.
