looks like it will be must earlier than that - with the expansion of the universe speeding up, there might be a time, where quarks cannot stick together anymore and this will be the end of particles as we know them - they might fly through space slower than it is expanding - isolating each particle into it's very own space.
This cat seems to be worshipping this carrot. It's weird.

Exploration in EDO is really something!
I always thought Scottish tea WAS whiskey.
i'm a bioinformatician - figuring out how nature works in a way - using the information to create experiments which might be useful to make technology out of it. We work with complex adaptive systems a lot and artificial life in those complex adaptive systems ( the superclass of "evolution") - i have seen hundreds of evolutions and studied them and i think I have a quite good idea how it works and as well how to use it in technology - especially in artificial super intelligence it will be used a great deal - and this is really scary, because I have seen it's power so often, that I fully understand why Elon Musk is stressing this fact that much and wants it to be regulated - ASI might just be the end of humankind even earlier than climate change or any of the other threats we'll have to face in the near future.It doesn't matter (in the Borg perspective), as you see it looks like a smart way to derail the retort.
IRL my honest ideas how to solve some problems are usually received as dark, grim jokes.
I must say it feels ambivalent to be received positively and labelled as "this funny guy with dark but sharp wit" even though you were not kidding most of the time.
YOU WANT ME TO EAT THIS... TRAVESTY OF FOOD?!?!
Pineapple is OK, with ham, but beyond that, yeah fruit is a no no. Of course there are always the "tomato is a fruit" people, which may not be necessarily wrong, but that would obviously be the other acceptable fruit on Pizza.
I did that three times over the past year. Very glad its finally settled on the PC that'll be my main for the next 5.
I did hear an interesting tidbit about some researchers watching an AI learn and grow, and they said that there was a point beyond which where they didn't know how it was working (as in making decisions) any more. But it was getting things right.
AI or politicians.... which to Blam! first? It's the modern dilemma... so, how about we just put them all in a big cage and it's last one standing?
So, tell me one thing, and I am asking serious, as you seem to be the right person.
I have always had this "gut hunch" that purpose of Universe IF IT EXISTS is much more purely "information oriented" then we seem to assume/perceive.
I mean for example genetics : the efficiency of the self-organising/self-processing of information (e.g. in living organisms) - although there is so much depending on randomness in all those small, basic changes in code, changes and adapting of species seem to be impressively adequate to the environment then it is to be expected from a system that appeared randomly and accidentally.
What I am asking is not a "is there a god" type of question, I am more like trying to stretch how we see physics laws and constants values as something REQUIRED and "pre set" (accidentally or not, doesn't matter) for the stars, planetary system and eventually life to come to existance.
Is there something in DNA and living, basic forms like bacteria that makes you think/feel like this is all "too sophisticated" (as process) to NOT be a part/result of "initial conditions/states set" of our Universe?
(and if it came to existence by a big bang or some bored god from another dimension is out of context/focus here).

I think the real problem is that en masse people are more likely to agree with poorly thought out emotionally charged words, due to a "me too mentality" (similar to the proven psychology of wanting likes on our posts and stuff) than they would otherwise, on their own or in much smaller groups.
I've personally experienced both sides of this and have regrets to this day when I "agreed" with something stupid, Ahhh, the teenage years, I don't miss em.
