I lost my dad two months ago to a motorcycle accident. We lived far apart but we’d constantly share podcasts and RU-vid videos about space exploration and sci fi together. Both of you have been a huge part of that. Thank you for the content you guys produce. It means more than you might realize. ❤

So I can entirely relate. He also loves motorcycles (dirt bikes to be exact😊) i recently kinda pulled away from talking to him because of his drinking but after reading your post here I’m going to reach back out. Thank you for your post and I hope time heals all your wounds. Sending love and peace to your heart and to your family’s

"I am Legend" is one of the best books ever written! When I first read it, I cried at how good it was and how bad the movie was. Honestly, I had been lied to when they said the movie was better than the book. Totally wrong.

Depends on the movie! "The Last Man on Earth" is a great film, and "the Omega Man" isn't bad either. The 2007 version had it's moments, Will Smith was good, he's quite charismatic; The scenes of deserted NYC were eerie... but yeah, the rest was terrible.

The bit about staying awake and occupied on a long-term asteroid spaceship trip around 17:00 reminded me of Hugh Jackman's character in "The Fountain" where he's flying through space in his little bubble with his Tree of Life, eating bits of it for immortality and living as a kind of Buddhist monk doing Tai Chi and meditating for centuries while he waits for his arrival at the Xibalba nebula. Always loved that film. Also, what if humanity is currently in a cryosleep right now heading to a new world, and this life we have right now is a dream simulation of living on our old planet with all its major social, economic and environmental issues, the point being to have some fresh insights before we wake up to our new homeworld? Would be nice, maybe.

Golovachev had this horror-like concept of a distant bright future but with the very fabric of the universe going wrong, making the initial manifests of it doing all kinds of solar-system-wide catastrophes hinting at the actual scale of looming doom.

@bluntedsuspect4615 8 месяцев назад

I started reading Iaian Banks 'culture' series a few months ago. Really interesting to speculate about the integration of A.G.I. into a society and the sociological integration of a sentient creation. I'm not sure if the series explores a more blatant dystopian potential or realization associated with A.G.I (I'm only on book 5, 'excession' ). Excession seems to water the seeds planted in some of the previous books that the minds have an agenda that the culture is willfully or otherwise unaware of. I droned on, but I had to delete because I don't want to start throwing out spoilers. Great series of novels nonetheless. I'm interested to know what John's and Isaac's impressions are of this series...

I feel like a space elevator would be a tube, basically a triangle of maybe graphene rolled so it's thickened at the top but the interior diameter is constant. It could be pretty tough against anything but a concerted attack. And multiple tubes could be clustered to give throughput in each direction, and different sizes for different types - like passengers and freight.

@carbon1479 8 месяцев назад

9:28 - with Peter Watts's Blindsight I felt like he was able to constantly feed the reader information and it stayed interesting just based on how many novel threads were evolving and (spoiler) he kept just enough back for there to be worthwhile surprises.

I think the book Snowcrash deals with nanite swarms and other swarms that deal with those swarms and more swarms to deal with those and on and on. I always found that interesting along with ICE and Black ICE from william Gibsons sprawl series. Those are two of my favorite science Fuction "tropes"? I guess they could be called now. I just found ICE and Black ICE very conpleling since i grew up working with computers and at internet based companies.

You don't make a space elevator because you want the cheapest orbital access - After all, launch loops and orbital ring systems are way cheaper. No, you do it because you can DANGLE a whole city-scale space habitat on the other end, that means your counterweight is also a major location with millions of people living there. Even if it's low-throughput, the one tether invites more tethers, since it's a major location anyway.

I’ve thought about being put in a sleep state - but I was recently put in a drug induced sleep/coma in the hospital for 2 months. It took me many weeks to learn how to walk again and almost all my muscles in my legs I lost, all over really. I can’t imagine a year or longer. I had no idea 2 months had passed, I really thought it was the next morning, the dreams I remember were out of this world, of course I’m sure the drugs had something to do with them.

59:34 John: “we are zombies” - This froze my brain for 5 minutes. :-) If a zombie could reflect and recognise that it were a zombie, then he wouldn't be a zombie, but then he wouldn't truthfully say “I'm a zombie...“ “We are zombies“ “every one of _us_ is a zombie” is vacuously true only if “us” refers to an empty set, otherwise leads to the same paradox. 🤯 “This statement is false.“ I'm reminded of the famous quine without deictic self-assertions of truth value, which is even more puzzling: “ ‘yields falsehood when preceded by its quotation’ yields falsehood when preceded by its quotation.” :-) (FWIW, this is a profound one, it's structurally a Gödelian statement.)

@@stevelenores5637Indeed. But was the human condition qualitatively different 10, 100, 1000, 10000 years ago? I don't believe, of course, in the Golden Age, when everyone was either a philosopher or a poet. I think that we grieve that everyone _could be,_ but has everyone ever truly been? There were dark ages and enlightened ages; what, however, wasn't but is, is that we as if require of the common people what was required chiefly of the elites. The idea of equality _in human rights_ is, don't get me wrong, a great one, that which defined our age, but stretching it to equality in, for one, striving to better oneself by education is, methinks, is overstretching it. Some do, some don't. Some think, some meme. I think we're much better off overall: bright people are no longer denied opportunities by their social standing, by caste, by birth. We have a lower ratio of opportunities realized to opportunities afforded to lament, and more opportunities realized to praise. The glass is half-empty and half-full.
