I don't think we'll be much more advanced in 2050 than we are 1980 to today. How many new technological advances have we had since 1980?
 
My fears is the growing groid and muslim population could fuck us all out of it.


Matthew, those are fears of your own making. the vast majority of blacks and Muslims are good people. Stop letting the retards in the media polarize you view of other good human beings.

Technological innovation is in high acceleration, friend.

A mammal has been cloned, developed huge internet based industries of various kinds, smart phones, flying cars, learned how to make stem cells, created the first artificial kidney, LENR, 3D printing on a micro scale, nanobots, 3d printed organs, and more.

The Future is Coming Much Faster than we Think Here s Why

The Singularity Is Coming Now What

The key factor is the integration of human knowledge and the speed with which that knowledge can be shared and evaluated among other experts of that same field. This speed in communication has been accelerating exponentially since the beginning of human language. We are on the cusp of a marvelous world, I am fairly sure, full of capacity for great human advancement and great evil as well. I hope we are up to the task.

A mammal was cloned in 1984. The technology to do such was invented in 1884.

Internet based industries? You mean mail order?

Smart phones? Multiplex radio telephone.

If we had flying cars, I'd own one.

Stem cells research has been on-going for 100 years.

Artificial kidney research has been around for decades.

Invention of 3D printing was in the 80's.

Nanobots = Someday

3d printed organs = not yet
 
In 1980, most of the human knowledge was available to just a few people living near universities. Today, thanks to the net, it is available to most of the people in this world. This has only been the case for less than two decades. Another quarter century of this access is going to bring changes not imaginable today. Wonderful and terrifying.

The technology for cloning mammals was not invented in 1884. Its precursor tech was, perhaps, but to say that was the whole tech needed is like saying the internal combustion engine was invented when we discovered fire, lol. :D

Yes, internet bsed industries that integrate all these various devices into a way that allows for commerce in a global market. That is new and revolutionary.

And we have flying cars and apparently you dont own one because you dont either have the money to buy one or dont have the required recreational pilots license or just are too lazy to search the internet for one.

I did not say that stem cells research started since 1980, but that our ability to MAKE a stem cell from something that was not previously a stem cell is recent.

Artificial kidney research has been around a long time but a successfully made artificial kidney was only approved for human trials by the FDA last year.

And invention of 3D printing in the 80's woiuld put it AFTER 1980, right Sherlock?

Nope. It will be 20-30 years before it's reality.

Your racism aside. You really sound like an ignorant fool.

I'm not negative on future advancements, I'm stating the fact that technology has hit a road block, partially due to Republicans stifling government spending.

Think about it. The internet, the technology to make those personal devices you love work, all the great stuff that NASA has given us, and, one government paid technology that I'm vested, SWATH.

If you cant see the difference between the simple USENET groups of the 1970s and what we have today with smart phones, twitter, Ebay, etc, then you are just a fool.



I can understand how some chronic jack off like yourself would feel that way, but you are wrong.

"There are a couple ways of thinking about the proportion of the Internet that is porn:

● In 2010, out of the million most popular (most trafficked) websites in the world, 42,337 were sex-related sites. That’s about 4% of sites.

● From July 2009 to July 2010, about 13% of Web searches were for erotic content.
Both of these are from our research in Billion Wicked Thoughts. We consider our data the best available. It’s an impossible task to say exactly what % of *ALL* websites are pornographic or anything else, because the web is both so enormous and so dynamic; looking at the million most popular sites is a very reasonable sample."

No, you are wrong. Artificial kidneys are being made and used in testing. I know that is a hard thing for you to wrap your brain around, but yes, technology is advancing and you don't have any reason for your doom and gloomy view of our future. The world is not going to die without libtards running everything.




You implied there has been no significant progress since 1980, so no, you are wrong again.

It is here already, dude.

"Ray Kurzweil, call your office—Harvard scientists have developed a cell-sniffing nanorobot that can deliver payloads of drug molecules to cancer-stricken areas of a person's body.

The researchers said Friday in a peer-reviewed study that they used their nanobots to deliver antibodies to lymphoma, leukemia, and other types of cancer cells, succeeding in halting their growth. "

Lol, I am not a racist, and you are an ideological idiot for accusing me of such a heinous thing. Didn't your mother teach you any manners, dude?



I'm not negative on future advancements, I'm stating the fact that technology has hit a road block, partially due to Republicans stifling government spending.

Obviously from the linked and sourced FACTS I just gave you, there is not a roadblock at all. Truth is, you are just a doom fixated Profit of Gloom and a fraud.



Think about it. The internet, the technology to make those personal devices you love work, all the great stuff that NASA has given us, and, one government paid technology that I'm vested, SWATH.

The NASA research did kick off a lot of new tech and that in turn has become influential in many many other technological advancements. But NASA didn't invent fire, dude, it was just one of the big players of recent note.

So why don't you develop a little humility and try reading and thinking about what those who disagree with you are posting and stop being so full of shyte?

We are seeing a number of technologies coming along that seem to suggest that by 2050 we will have all the energy we will need as small communities or individual households, will be able to manufacture via 3D printing and nano-manufacturing anything we want or need, and we will have technology enhanced life, vigor and indefinite life spans.

How do you feel about where we will be in the year 2100 AD?
We will be at the stage where we decide do we all stay living and stop reproducing? Or do we forego immortality to continue to breed.
 
Electric cars are hundred year old tech. But only just now becomming affordable and mass produced.

Optimistic? Uh, no. :)

Well, there must be a *need* for a technology for it to become adopted and part of everyday life. I think the commute of most major cities is so hellacious that a demand for flying cars has grown, and the smog and CO2 are issues that have increased demand for electric vehicles. I think a flying car that incorporates electric engines is the perfect fix for most of our need right now. Even if only half the population ever could afford them it would cut pollution and traffic by that same percentage and would be a boon to those who still bump along on the surface..

No one needed cellphones. Getting lost in the wild and dying was Nature's way of killing off those who couldn't navigate. :)

Why do you see a dichotomy between reproducing/breeding and indefinite life spans? I think we will need both. Given the freedom to choose, I think we still need a maintenance level of breeding, but where that number would be, I am not sure.

"Psychological consequences aside, Leonid Gavrilov, in "Demographic consequences of defeating aging," (presented at the Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence Conference, Queens' College, Cambridge, England, September, 2009) asks: "Is it possible to have a sustainable population dynamics in a future hypothetical non-aging society?"

In computer simulations, Gavrilov concluded that "population changes are surprisingly slow in their response to a dramatic life extension. For example, we applied the cohort-component method of population projections to 2005 Swedish population for several scenarios of life extension and a fertility schedule observed in 2005. Even for very long 50-year projection horizon, with the most radical life extension scenario (assuming no aging at all after age 50), the total population increases by 35 percent only (from 9.1 to 13.3 million)."

Paradoxically, the population might even decline "if some members of the society reject to use new anti-aging technologies for some religious or any other reasons (inconvenience, non-compliance, fear of side effects, costs, etc.)."

Immortal parents, if they had only one child per couple, would double the population over time. The population would not grow infinitely."

Well, mortality issues aside, apparently a lot of people these days see texting as a critical necessity for modern life. :D
