David Brin wrote an interesting article “Do We Really Want Immortality” [2]. I disagree with his conclusions about the politics though. Better manufacturing technology should allow decreasing the retirement age while funding schools well.
Scientific American has a surprising article about the differences between Chimp and Bonobo parenting [3]. I’d never have expected Chimp moms to be protective.

Htwo has an interesting video about adverts for fake games [6]. It’s surprising how they apparently make money from advertising games that don’t exist.

Bruce Schneier wrote an insightful blog post on How AI Will Change Democracy [10].
Bruce Schneier wrote an insightful blog post about seeing the world as a data structure [12].
