Thursday's free blinks.
The Science and Technology of Growing Young by @SergeyYoung200.
This is timely because as I grow out a beard on my holidays, I've noticed there are a few white hairs!
Is this going to be a Benjamin Button story?🤣

"In the near future, people are going to be able to live for 115, 150 or even 200 years."
I'm not sure I want to live that long.

"Medicine is more reactive than proactive. Doctors run around putting out fires when their patients are already sick, rather than making sure that people remain healthy in the first place."
I agree.

Young - what an apt surname - outlines some cutting edge technologies - Cerebrotech Visor, Ownstone.
It's a bit overhyped IMHO. We are still going to get sick. You can't cheat death.

Young thinks precision medicine and AI will help treat cancer. He's probably right, but it still won't fix obesity and other chronic illnesses.

Artificial spare parts.
But you can't (yet) replace your brain. What happens when it fails but everything else can last another 50 years?

Our virtual selves can live forever. But is it really us? And what of those left behind - do they believe in the mirage? In the trickery? It's all a bit Matrix-esque.

In this blink, Young is recommending men over 40 get screened for pancreatic cancer.
But I've seen a lot of bad outcomes for surgery on benign pancreatic tumours before. Not sure if the advice is sound.

Anyway, I'm not a fan of these blinks. Not sure if I endorse living to 200years of age.
