- A carbon-nanotube transhuman body architecture was outlined: CNT-reinforced skeleton and bullet-proof skin, soft-robotic synthetic muscles inspired by Boston Dynamics Atlas, fiber-optic synthetic nervous system, and a quantum computer encased in a CNT-reinforced skull.

- A self-experimented nootropic stack of Rick Simpson Oil (high-THC cannabis extract), Ginkgo biloba (claimed MAOI/vasodilator), and Omega-3 fish oil was reported to yield a perceived 20-point temporary IQ increase, prompting warnings about MAOI-induced mania and skepticism over Ginkgo’s efficacy.

- Magnesium deficiency was highlighted as an under-diagnosed driver of anxiety and panic attacks, with magnesium citrate or glycinate recommended over sedating antihistamines or antipsychotics for sleep and anxiety management.

- The Hedonistic Imperative’s goal of abolishing all suffering was challenged on the grounds that exponential growth of sentient beings would continuously increase aggregate suffering, leading to a reductio ad absurdum argument that total extinction might be the “optimal” outcome.

- Cemetery genetics was floated as a tongue-in-cheek strategy for sourcing high-IQ DNA by exhuming and sequencing genomes from “genius-dense” cemeteries such as Cambridge, MA or Prague’s Slavín.

- Open-source chip fabrication resources were shared: the OnChipUIS project for building a 100-transistor DIY integrated circuit (GitHub repo and Twitter account) and its Hackaday project page.

- Recent technical papers and tools circulated included Expansion-STED hybrid super-resolution microscopy (ACS Nano 2018), wearable OpenWater MRI prototypes, TLS-N non-repudiation protocol for cryptographically signed web content, and massively multiplexed tip-based photochemical lithography for microfluidic bio-chips (Cell Chem 2018).

- Piracetam was judged to have minimal standalone cognitive benefit but may counteract caffeine-induced jitters; methylphenidate, modafinil, and lifestyle interventions (exercise, diet, social contact) were recommended as more reliable concentration enhancers.

- FreeCAD’s development roadmap was noted: integration of the SolveSpace kernel alongside OpenCASCADE will soon provide users with dual kernel options, improving assembly modeling flexibility.
