--- Log opened Tue Dec 19 00:00:03 2023 00:42 < Ashstar> it would be great to see the ages pass as we gain wisdom, to be a part of history, to live 100's of yers 00:42 < Ashstar> years 00:44 < Ashstar> yet though, as I reflect as a biologist, is that right? Why has life built in time limits? 00:46 < Ashstar> why do cells experience apostosis 00:47 < Ashstar> if all of us lived hundreds of years, then how would that affect the availability of resources 00:48 < Ashstar> qui pro bono? 00:48 < Ashstar> just a thought 00:50 -!- darsie [~darsie@84-113-55-200.cable.dynamic.surfer.at] has joined #hplusroadmap 00:57 < Ashstar> are we the part of life's relay team? Do we live to pass on what we have? the wisdom, the collected resources to open doors? 00:59 < Ashstar> sequence? 00:59 < Ashstar> Research suggests that 'time cells' – neurons in the hippocampus thought to represent temporal information – could be the glue that sticks our memories together in the right sequence so that we can properly recall the correct order in which things happened. 00:59 < Ashstar> Idaho Shoppers Should Think Twice Before Buying from These 2 Stores 01:00 < Ashstar> lol 01:00 < Ashstar> sory 01:00 < Ashstar> Evidence for these kinds of sequence-tracking time cells has previously been found in rats, where specific neuron assemblies are thought to support the recollection of events and the planning of action sequences. 01:00 < Ashstar> But for a long time, less was known about how episodic memory is encoded in the human brain. 01:00 < Ashstar> To investigate, a team of researchers led by neuroscientist Leila Reddy from the Brain and Cognition Research Center (CerCo) in France monitored electrical activity in the brains of 15 epilepsy patients, using microelectrodes implanted in the hippocampus. 01:01 < Ashstar> "Given the importance of the hippocampus in sequence order learning and temporal order judgments, we tested whether human hippocampal neurons represented temporal information while participants learned the order of a sequence of items." 01:03 < Ashstar> During the sessions, the electrodes recorded specific neurons in the hippocampus firing in response to the experiment, both during specific moments as images were displayed, during gaps when no images were shown, and at pauses where participants were asked to predict what image would be shown next from a sequence already displayed. 01:03 < Ashstar> According to the researchers, the neurons involved are evidence of time cells: "neurons whose activity is modulated by temporal context within a well-defined time window". 01:11 < nsh> TIME CELLS 01:11 < nsh> lol 01:14 < nsh> .gpt4 what are gate cells in the context of network zeitgeiber theories of circadian rhythms especially within the SCN? 01:15 < gptpaste> ​The term "gate cells" is not a standard term widely recognized in the context of circadian rhythms or the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), which is often referred to as the master clock of mammalian timekeeping. However, based on your question, it seems you are referring to a concept related to how signals might be gated or modulated within the SCN or other parts of the brain - https://bin.gy/cericiotio 01:15 < nsh> .t https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3281756/ 01:16 < EmmyNoether> Gates and Oscillators II: Zeitgebers and the Network Model of the Brain Clock - PMC 02:36 -!- flooded [flooded@gateway/vpn/protonvpn/flood/x-43489060] has joined #hplusroadmap 02:40 -!- test_ [flooded@gateway/vpn/protonvpn/flood/x-43489060] has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds] 02:49 -!- Gooberpatrol66 [~Gooberpat@user/gooberpatrol66] has quit [Ping timeout: 268 seconds] 02:53 -!- Chiester [~Chiester@user/Chiester] has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer] 02:54 -!- Chiester_ [~Chiester@user/Chiester] has joined #hplusroadmap 02:55 -!- Chiester_ is now known as Chiester 04:24 < docl> time tracking is a valid neurological function, doesn't mean we have to die. sheesh. and evolution doesn't literally philosophize about limits to growth 04:25 < docl> if it could make people live up to infinity years evolution would think that's great. it just can't quite figure out how 04:28 < docl> probably something more like having cells predictably lose function after the organism has had a chance to reproduce squares better lower hanging with cancer prevention strategies like having cells less easily able to reproduce unlimited numbers 04:39 -!- cthlolo [~lorogue@77.33.24.3.dhcp.fibianet.dk] has joined #hplusroadmap 05:08 -!- test_ [flooded@gateway/vpn/protonvpn/flood/x-43489060] has joined #hplusroadmap 05:11 -!- flooded [flooded@gateway/vpn/protonvpn/flood/x-43489060] has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds] 07:17 -!- justanotheruser [~justanoth@gateway/tor-sasl/justanotheruser] has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds] 07:40 -!- justanotheruser [~justanoth@gateway/tor-sasl/justanotheruser] has joined #hplusroadmap 08:22 -!- cthlolo [~lorogue@77.33.24.3.dhcp.fibianet.dk] has quit [Quit: Leaving] 08:54 -!- L29Ah [~L29Ah@wikipedia/L29Ah] has left #hplusroadmap [] 09:21 -!- Ashstar [~Ashstar@mobile-166-171-250-36.mycingular.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 276 seconds] 09:34 -!- L29Ah [~L29Ah@wikipedia/L29Ah] has joined #hplusroadmap 10:11 -!- flooded [flooded@gateway/vpn/protonvpn/flood/x-43489060] has joined #hplusroadmap 10:14 -!- test_ [flooded@gateway/vpn/protonvpn/flood/x-43489060] has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds] 10:52 < nsh> .m https://twitter.com/softminus/status/1737178371854119392 10:52 < AugustaAva> ​twitter: >Congress recommends ensuring "the United States is the first country to permanently station assets at all Lagrange Points." https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GBuyhJjbMAEeIEI.jpg [https://twitter.com/SciGuySpace/status/1737167062273822734 10:52 < AugustaAva> ​It will be interesting to see what happens if DOD gets serious about L2.
