I’m not Swedish. Does Mullvad do what it says on the tin? That’s all that matters. The CEO’s extracurricular activities are none of my business.

I had elevated homocysteine, treated it (MTHFR gene, therefore methylated B12 / folate, etc), and that had zero effect on my sleep quality, unfortunately. Tried B6, every variation of magnesium (including threonate), all the typical sl

How did you figure this one out and how did you resolve it? Asking for ME!

It's amazing after all these years we're still so bad at improving an average person's recall, even by 50%. It feels like there's a lot of low-hanging fruit there, and all we can do is spaced repetition systems, the memo

It’s no more creepy than every person in the world holding a camera in their hand/pocket and every business and home in a city recording passers by 24/7. Not ideal, but also nothing different or new.

Have you looked into UniQure / Clearpoint Neuro ? Exciting stuff, if it gets FDA approved.

You can offset this cost by investing in memory stocks. Apple product got $200 more expensive? Well you made $200 speculating on $DRAM. Lost $200 speculating on $DRAM? Well at least your Apple product got less expensive.

When has a global agency funded proportionally by all countries not solved the problem at hand?

Also it costs a lot to train and run individual humans, and they can only be run for brief periods per day before they crash, hallucinate and possibly get irretrievably broken.

"alive" is not a meaningful term. It makes sense only when you have blunt instruments to measure aliveness, like pulse, respiration, heart beat, etc. Once you go much more granular, there's no particular spot to make a distin

I absolutely believe that AI will supercharge science and replace humans. Why shouldn't it? Humans are poorly optimized for almost anything, and built on a substrate that's barely hanging together

Luckily they’ve brought in plenty of people eager to sacrifice short term being exploited for long term exploiting others.

Not enough women in tech: bad for women. Women get all the high-paying email jobs in tech so men aren't good enough anymore: bad for women. AI is good at email jobs: bad for women. Won't someone please think of the women?!

If you value accomplishment, then adding more years to accomplish more things is a no-brainer

Why didn't anybody warn Alexander Fleming about Chesterton's fence?

Yes. A lot of people would live life so fully if they knew they had 790 years: in fact more so. Right now the most ambitious projects people start barely scratch a decade or two.

The longer your lifespan, the more chances you have to waste chunks of it in a rut of zero experience, but have time to work your way out of it. At just 60 ~ 90 years, a rut of a single decade can take up > 15% of your lifespan.

What an un-hacker ethos: the idea is to continuously fix problems so that, if anything, quality of life improves from year to year.

500 years is as arbitrary a number as 79 is. A Craig Venter that lives (a healthy life) to 158 is quite likely to accomplish at least 1 more great thing than one who lives to 79.

Imagine what a guy like that could do with 79 more years... or 10x of that. It's not that outlandish: sharks, turtles, etc get far more years than we do. It's shocking all billionaires aren't devoting all their resources to s

Only 79… far from a complete human experience. It’s incredibly sad how little time we get here, especially the best of us.

Is that a lot or a little?

And what if that guy in the surveillance video is just 2 kids in a trench coat? There's no way for AI to be sure from the photons: we should scrap it.

It's actually less fatiguing than interacting with humans, who never admit they're wrong or agree to look at things from a fresh perspective.
