Immortality race

Allow me to suggest an analogy of some concepts “underlying” this your work, with a philosophical thesis, well known among progressists, according to which WE ACTUALLY ARE just a simulation. I can brutally collapse it to the following sentence: IF we ADMIT the possiblity for the human race to reach a transhuman (or better posthuman) stage, AND to run large computer simulations of its evolution at the level of individuals, THEN we are almost certainly ALREADY living in a computer simulation. This comes from the facts that i) it is very likely that the our actual human race will go extinct before reaching the posthuman stage, ii) the odds that the simulation in the hypotesis has already been realized, compared with the odds that it will be realized in the future are in neat favour of the first chance. No need to say that, this astounding thesis is strictly depending on the peculiar form of the initial hypotesis. All that stated, and with all that in mind, I’d like to quote one your sentence and give an extension of it.
“Fixed shapes and speed limits (unless it’s the speed of light) are not for us.” The extension is that, also the limit of light speed is not of us (nor is of the posthuman creators of the simulation). Actually we should only consider it a limit defined by the simulation, a feature of the careful design of our capabilities to perceive the (simulated) universe, imposed by our posthuman ancestors, to avoid that we could discover the real nature of all. This would include other limiting, and somehow paradoxical, “dogmas” of our science, like Heisemberg’s indetermination principle, Goedels’ limits to mathematical axiomatic systems, dark matter, dark energy, and so on. CAUTION: thinking deeply about all this, may get your brain in a loop. The best and more.
