The real "pro-life" battle
The Manhattan Beach Project is a collaboration of scientists and entrepreneurs whose goal is to defeat the world's biggest killer -- the aging process -- by 2029. Its summit last month aimed to speed up progress by bringing together researchers from different disciplines. Article here (found via Mendip). The importance of any one project to the global struggle against aging shouldn't be exaggerated -- aging will be defeated gradually by the cumulative development of many different lines of technology, some of which are already coming into use -- but the more researchers treat the eradication of aging as an explicit goal, the better.

Please be on-topic and read the comments policy. Spam, trolls, and fight-pickers will be deleted. If you don't have a Blogspot account and aren't sure how to comment, please see here. Fair warning -- I reject all comments containing any of the following:
1. Support for transgenderism
2. Negativity about Brexit
3. Support for a military draft or compulsory national service
I am not obligated to provide a platform for views I find morally abhorrent. And obviously I'm going to delete anything which is just quoting what an "AI" said. I want to hear from you, not from the always-wrong hallucination machine.
No comments advocating violence against any specific identifiable individual, even jokingly.
Please be considerate -- no political or politics-tinged comments on non-political posts, and no performative cynicism. Finally, please remember that this is a personal blog whose main purpose is to encourage contact from people with similar interests and world-views to mine. I really don't much care for arguing and debating; if arguing and debating is what you want, there are plenty of other places on the internet which welcome that.
