hypothesis: the current obsession with longevity is a byproduct of tech culture's fear of death. i used to ask founders + early employees, "have you thought about dying?" i would get a visceral reaction each time. and yet, as steve jobs said, "death is the destination we all share." so why do you want to live longer?

I accept death not a fan of the concept of dying, but no desire to live longer than I do. it keeps us honest, and our time is limited. limitation breeds creativity. definitely no strong desire to live for thousands of years The world has seasons Beauty is fleeting
