#32Someone should make a website showing the oldest living biohackers. Presenting it as a sort of leaderboard edit: I don't actually ethically endorse this. I was moreso poking fun at the morbidity of the biohacking influencer space which invites people to obsess over an influencer's health and inevitably turns into something gruesome when said influencer has a tragic health outcome.
Honestly, great idea, hope someone interested reads this.

#33Now this news is everywhere and people seem to be mocking him, but he is a good guy.
He's hubristic and selfish. None of his "research" is going to benefit anyone (himself included), making this essentially a huge waste of time and resources. Bryan will die just like all the rest of us, despite being very rich and self-obsessed. He could spend his enormous wealth on supporting real research and proper studies on real diseases that hurt lots of people. Instead he's acting like just another huckster pr…

There we go again. There's always that one guy in the crowd, who knows better what you should be spending your money on. Also, that guy has the moral right to tell you. He is a really good person, you know! So you should listen! You should also thank him.
> He deserves to be mocked.
Just look how good this guy is.

Being good and wealthy are mutually exclusive.

He's actually Bio"hacked" himself though ! Most people just take supplements.
Isn't getting "hacked" suppose to be a bad thing ?

#36Having a blood boy will not save you from inevitable death
Re: Biohacker seeking immortality afflicted with incurable 'stomach eating' disease
#37I thought the article was talking about his blood transfusions to explain any part of how he ended up with this disease but no, he just has it (for some reason) as a result of something that happened at some point.
He donates blood or ?

#38I completely support people who want to be guinea pigs for health science.
What he's doing is not science.
It literally is, and in many circles (illicit drugs, bodybuilding, cosmestic...) it's thanks to those community that we have early-on data. Go look for information about latest psychedelic derivatives, user reviews is the only thing we have accessible, it is Science, a doctor is aware of side-effects because of reporting, user reporting (assuming relatively trusted) is genuinely useful for the world.
It's also useful because most AI models are able to talk about what the community is saying about drugs and the model can correlate that with many other things and it does enhance diagnostic and it's quite useful to train medical models.
See a relatively "new" example is about Vapes, there has been deaths and so-on due to people experimenting with illicit ones, without those reports, we will never have in future Science book and AI models that some chemicals are dangerous to inhale or whatever (it's a shitty example but you get my point)

Turns out that when you amass a significant portion of society’s resources then society will be interested in what you do with them.

#40To add some context, this is a relatively common form of gastritis impacting depending on location 3-5% of the population called Autoimmune Gastritis. Now his biohacking might be related it might not, the issue with the guy is that he does too many interventions at the same time so it’s hard to really tell what’s going on. He also has a core belief of equating looking younger with his interventions working, to his de…

And he looks pretty much exactly his age.
