Old idea made possible...so we will have superbumans trying to better the others.....oh...the computerity! Memo...to Schmitt...those squishy cells keep your vain imaginings goin’, your being is not a program. If so...you will be replaced by a better program when your entropy cycle has you disintegrate. Next conglomeration of matter please.

Lately I’ve been reading quite a bit about the workings of a cell, Each cell is a veritable compurized factory, complex beyond any that we’ve been able to build.

It’s made up of programs with 3 billion characters, (DNA) subdivided into 25000 “apps” (genes), processed by 10 million microprocessors (ribosomes) producing 42 million proteins (nanomachines) , plus other substances, nanomachinery and communication mechanisms yet to be discovered. All this in a single cell. And each of our bodies is made up of 37 TRILLION cells. It is absolutely mind blowing!

It makes the idea that this was the result of random mutations and natural selection laughable.

Facebook also recently acquired a company called CTRL Labs...

Let that sink in a second.

It’s amazing.

And you’re just looking at one cell.

Look one more step at development from one cell into a baby and then to adulthood.

How can that be mapped out and planned to occur over the course of months and years.

My comment was about the speed of calculations, not overall complexity.

Carbon absorbing bacteria! Imagine their surprise when they discover trees. And that the planet C02 levels are automatically regulated by plant growth.

Biology is slow. Not the next step in computing.

I'm wondering if the "next step" our elites are thinking of, is a more reliable way to control the common people.

I’m definitely not smart enough to even pretend to understand the nature and make up of cells.
But based on what little I know and have read, very similar to your post, I’d say it’s impossible for any randomness to be involved in anything biologically speaking.
We haven’t even really scratched the surface of the complexity either.

DNA The Future Of Computing Information Technology Essay

I read In another article, that if your DNA was stretched out that it would be 320 trillion feet long.

Also, same article as mentioned above, using DNA computing would allow for all the data/written word ever to be contained in a area the size of a chicken egg.

Hi Blam.

I saw your response. I don’t gave any time, but suffice to say what wasn’t gibberish in that article was devoid of any significance.
