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?

if that‘s the general question then no. I know people that had a horrible time „living longer“ at old age, wouldn‘t want to have that experience thanks. Ofc everyone‘s gonna scam you with the idea of being forever 21, but yeah it‘s not happeinh
