Maybe looking at the average is the wrong thing to do. People who die from cancer can be robbed of a lot of years. A couple of other recent cancer deaths I saw on HN: Walter Ehmer died at 58 https://news.ycombinator.com/ite

“ Cancer diagnostics today are broken. You have to get to a point where you're sick enough or find a visible lump somewhere to go for a checkup” We are developing liquid biopsies that seem promising for early cancer detection. https:&

Add a wireless keyboard, mouse and monitor then you’ve got a desktop computer. Not gonna happen from Apple but I’m eagerly awaiting the day.

Intel hasn’t received any US money yet. TSMC will also receive several billion in subsidies. The problem the government is trying to address is 90% of the world’s most sophisticated chips being made in Taiwan, a potential war zone. I

I wouldn't worry. A few hundred billion dollars isn't going to solve immortality. We've also got to cure heart disease, cancer(s), Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, etc along the way. If we could simply add an extra 30-50

I’m not rich and I want to live forever. Let’s skip the two most common comments. “Death gives life meaning” Not to worry, death is still optional “Only the rich will be able to afford it”. No, you are incorrect. Give it some additional tho

I look forward to you convincing Americans to give up their cars. It’ll take decades to get the infrastructure once you do. I’m personally waiting for low-speed maglevs to catch on. In the meantime, there are 16 million Ford F150s on the

“Waymo’s fully autonomous, all-electric Jaguar I-PACE vehicles” Wonder if air quality improves in cities that get a large adoption of autonomous electric vehicles.

It appears he died from pancreatic cancer. The same disease that Steve Jobs had.

How many have died because we didn’t care enough to try harder to cure these terrible diseases. Tens of millions! If you have a disease and want to find clinical trials for unapproved drugs, they are available. https://clinicaltr

Each study tells if they are recruiting. Then you can drill down and see locations where they are recruiting. For example, https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05855200?locStr=New%20Yo...

It is disturbing. For some reason it’s not disturbing enough that we spend more to try and cure these diseases. The Last Lecture was given almost 20 years ago. Pancreatic cancer is just as deadly today. https://youtu.be/ji5_

Let them what? Enroll in a clinical trial? Buy drugs from some website? Get a PhD to try and cure their own disease? https://www.wired.com/story/sleep-no-more-crusade-genetic-ki...

I think I’ve been hearing this argument for the last 40 years. How many miracle cures have we missed? None If you really want to cure cancer, and other diseases like ALS, etc, invest the money and resources necessary to do it.

Might be profitable. Once people realize there’s no way we come close to our climate goals and blow through 1.5C, panic will set in. This might take another decade. In the meantime, keep pumping out the warm and fuzzy narrative.

“One of the benefits of our early success on Intel 18A is that it enables us to shift engineering resources from Intel 20A earlier than expected” The Tom’s article said it would outsource production to TSMC. Maybe in the short term?
