For the number of billionaires in the world, there is surprisingly very little investment in Aging research. If I was rich, I would put all my wealth into research to make us live longer. It's almost as if humans accepted defeat.

Even the US's National Institute on Aging only appropriates ~400m USD/yr to Aging Biology. That's nothing.

We can indeed buy time. But we have to pre-pay for it.

My question to AI about garlic on Nostr"

"why are people talking about garlic on nostr"

The "helpful" link that AI returns:

"Is it safe to put garlic up your nose? What experts say"

I don't think we should fear death by this tech quite yet.

1k sats to everyone who repost & comment something positive !

Cut off time 12am today :)

the Russian economy proves robust, when Putin is more popular and secure than ever, when Ukraine’s military is being methodically dismantled despite the West’s supplying it with vast quantities of weapons (exposed as inferior to Russia’s) and money.

Main reason I came here.

Fuck the blue check

It was mostly Victoria who went full retard. 2 people self-immolated here when the vax mandates were in full swing which was heavily suppressed by the media, suicides rose and were covered up, people were jailed for total bullshit and the economy was utterly rekt.

Western Australia had their own special breed of pyschosis becoming a hermit kingdom and would have been as brutal if their protests were as large.

NSW Gov was bad but nowhere near VIC. NSW Police were and always have been pieces of shit, they were flying around in helicopters telling teenagers to go home because of lockdown rules..

Australia was terrible overall and worse in the left-leaning areas. The “no worries she’ll be right” attitude Aussies were famous for went out the window and became total statism with people calling the cops on neighbours for being outside for longer than their “allowed time”.

I plan to leave and have a few options but am waiting to see how things play out before deciding where and when.

What if every little bit of user attention spent on Threads will be compensated by a little bit of less attention spent on Instagram and vice-versa? Facebook may have willingly reduced Instagram's network effect.

We are closer to the end game of fiat than people realise. No central bank nor government has the tools to fix any of this anymore.

They tighten and it drives the people with money to spend more, snapping up the poors at the bottom forced out because they’re liquid or willing to take on long term debt they can afford.

They loosen and it drives the people with money to spend more getting it out of cash whilst fucking the poors simultaneously.

On top of that the central planner’s window is tiny given the debt levels, it’s like Austin Powers trying to U-turn in the hallway - that “fastest rate hike in history” over 12 months is going to look like ant policy when shit starts really moving.

This is the debt death spiral, circling the drain and it’s gonna go round and round real fast until shit breaks beyond repair.

I’m less interested in the fiat price of Bitcoin at that point and more interested in social stability and being somewhere that isn’t caught up in daily policy changes, capital controls, money printing etc.

How are people going to react to an overnight debasement of their money? To new laws restricting capital flows? To new massive stimulus packages followed shortly by new massive austerity packages? New governments every 12 then 6 months? Then no elections?

Shit is gonna get real when the money breaks in a way none of us have ever experienced because this will flow globally. nostr:note1z8nly9ultztt3cznt2zs4d0swae08l0jv6pxple00mhd76yxe8rsxmcznv
