I have been taking Rapamycin for 19 weeks and NR and Metformin (for anti-aging) for much longer and I can't see any difference. I'm 50+. I generally, however, feel excellent, as well as I remember when I was younger so…
Thanks!
Hanson doesn't think (2) and (3) follow because of the possibility of panspermia. It's possible that our galaxy is the only one in a billion light years that has given rise to life, but there could, because of…
Children with hyperlexia can often learn to read before they are two. I personally knew a children who before the age of two was reading.
But if I travel for 45 years at 1-g doesn't the largest scale of the universe become significant to my travels?
HBO should email everyone to give us all the choice of whether to get an apology email.
The ability to break the Enigma code might qualify. German scientists, I think, considered it unbreakable.
I think because of the expansion of the universe, you don't have to decelerate as much if you travel to far away galaxies.
By this logic, the military would have started vaccinating their troops for COVID by March 2020.
Infinity makes decision making really weird since infinity + 1 is the same as infinity so if you are going to be tortured for infinity years it wouldn't be irrational to volunteer to be tortured for an extra year.
Let's say that across the multiverse all versions of you are going to collectively live for 1 billion years. Unfortunately, some versions of you will be tortured and let's assume that collectively you will be tortured…
Cryonics (I'm signed up with Alcor) can reduce the measure of you being tortured. Assume a multiverse where some versions of you are going to be tortured for a long time. If you sign up for cryonics, if you get brought…
We must never forget him so we keep in mind that genius can be used in support of evil.
Where do they put it? Wouldn't this require the total biomass of the rainforest to be continually increasing?
How common is it for a federal inmate on suicide watch to commit suicide? What's the Bayesian prior?
I can recall memories easily, but I don't see pictures of them.
I dream but don't daydream. Some with aphantasia say they don't seem imagines in their dreams.
Bicameralism seemed a lot sillier to me before I found out I had aphantasia (lack of a mind's eye), and most people see imaginary images while awake. Hearing the voices of imaginary gods doesn't seem all the different…
If it were legal, do you think that the power company should cut off electricity to Crowder?
"IQ tests simply are not used at any scale that would be required to study such a correlation" I think you are wrong about this. There are a huge number of social scientists who study IQ. Also, IQ tests are very…

I'm the author and I am completely serious. The part you mention is to foreshadow my arguing that Trump should pull the trigger.
It might have been written by an employee of the New York Times.
If a Google employee ever does get punched in the face by a fellow employee, he could use this line in a lawsuit alleging that Google has created a hostile workplace. A jury might not see this line as hyperbole. It was…
People have suggested that the manifesto's author is autistic. If this is true, then it is very possible that if you are not familiar with how autistics' think you will not be able to judge his mental state based on the…
