      The brain, mercifully, has a set lifespan. Nothing good comes of immortality.https://twitter.com/michael_nielsen/status/998375823114551297 …

      Incredible chart. Take mortality statistics & subtract infectious disease. You see: (a) in the twentieth century we largely defeated infectious disease in the US (arguably the biggest achievement of 20C); and (b) little else we did in medicine affected mortality. via @patrickc pic.twitter.com/k2DAtPoEz8

      Nothing good comes of aging either.

      Use old growth forests as a model. Cross-reference with our generations attitude to boomers. Old growth has to decompose to make way for new growth. Anything less is literally...cancer. There’s nothing dishonorable in knowing when to pass on.

          Seems overrated. Rather live indefinitely and choose my own departure time.

          Hm. To each his own. Personally lust for immortality smacks of our unconditional counterparts. I say embrace the pain and experience of aging, it becomes life affirming. An antidote to an anesthetic life. As for me, I enjoy dreamless sleep. I think I’ll handle death well enough.

          To me, the removal of finitude from being makes the act of forging ones life into a project of overcoming said finitude irrelevant. Think about what we’ve said happens to the human condition after UBI. Lifespan=capital. UBI=immortality. Mortality=pressure to act. And act well.

          Not sure about that… I derive pleasure in itself from action, volition, getting my way, etc. My sense is this wouldn't dissipate from knowing I was acting on a very extended timeline.
