@tomorrowbio Explaining that death is a process as opposed to an event and that the point at which it becomes irreversible is a border set by medical technology.
every data center story says it uses "as much power as 100,000 homes" like that's a scandal. an aluminum smelter pulls five times that and it's why airplanes are cheap. measuring industry in homes is how you train a country to believe building things is a crime
My latest article is about how the longevity movement should not be about wellness tips and tricks and lifestyle improvements, but rather, true, biotech-enabled life extension and life improvement.
We should be able to live exciting lives, without restriction. Forever.
In 1938, a DuPont chemist named Roy Plunkett accidentally created a new polymer while working on refrigerants. He didn't know what to do with it. Six years later the Manhattan Project classified it. Oak Ridge's K-25 plant was the largest building under one roof in the world, built to push uranium hexafluoride through thousands of gaseous diffusion stages to enrich uranium. UF6 destroyed every gasket and seal they tried. PTFE was the only material that held. The substance that coats your frying pan was classified because without it the atomic bomb couldn't be built. The most critical materials in history were never planned for. Someone stumbled into them and then everything depended on them. That's why I started a chemicals company. We're still in that era.
