moriartystrangewarp, is that a good thing or a bad thing?04:19
strangewarpMostly it's all so bleak and lacking in decent futurism that I want to strangle someone04:20
strangewarp"We might be able to terraform Mars in a couple hundred years, and that would be the next human frontier" "If anyone survives the global war that the collapse of oil and water will cause" "Well yes of course" AAAHH04:23

moriartyin any case, it's good that we are dismal about the prospects of oil depletion, in that sense we are more prepared now than we were previously, and also good for the crunch that we are in04:39

strangewarpmoriarty: Planetary Resources is being backed by billionaires who quite dearly want it to exist, so in the short term, it should inspire the old-fashioned space-cadet kind of people's optimistic ambitions04:51
strangewarpAsteroid-mining, as it's classically been conceived, is definitely financially dubious, don't get me wrong04:51
moriartydelinquentme, the kind of ROI expected for wildcat exploration is typically two years to half-a-year as a limitation on exposure to those risk levels, compared to modestly risky projects with expected ROI of five years, so for an asteroid mining project with platinum ore, R&D, exploration, production (mining platform and processing plant) construction, transportation, and the actual04:53
moriartymining04:53
delinquentmeOh I was of the thought that they were grabbing them and returning them to earth04:53
moriarty... 47 mm tonnes would be required in order to achieve at least 50% ROI for a near-earth asteroid within the ninety percentile where platinum ore concentration is typically within 140 PPM04:55

delinquentmemoriarty, you're telling me that a universal average for platinum more is 140 ppm04:57
moriartydelinquentme, for ninety percent of asteroids that are near-earth, yes04:58

@kanzurehttp://chronopause.com/index.php/2011/02/23/does-personal-identity-survive-cryopreservation/08:29
@kanzurei am too scarred to read that and check what awful assumptions they make about "personal identity"08:30
@kanzurealso.. that's very long08:30
strangewarpI want to counter that sort of argument by saying "if your concept of 'personal identity' would not survive cryonics, it has almost certainly been resimulated many times over in the Big Universe regardless", but it's too risky of a line of rebuttal - I'd best stick to the standard "massive fluctuations already occur in the human brain and I'm pretty sure we're fine"08:34
@kanzurestrangewarp: i think it's simpler to say that anyone yapping about personal identity is bullshitting you08:36
strangewarpyeah pretty much08:37
