Mental communication already exists in spades. Does Hackaku think that we communicate without using our brains or....?

Well - implanted microchips and wifi - that’s starting to get pretty Kurzweilian

Your phone can’t read your thoughts though.

If that’s scratching the surface, think where it could go.

# 1 . Clarke's Law (by science-fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke): "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistin- guishable from magick."
Imagine a technology a hundred years beyond ours. A thousand years beyond ours. A million years beyond ours. And then remember that many stars, which might have planets and civilizations, are literally billions of years older than our sun. There might be races in this galaxy advanced as much as 10 billion years beyond our technology.
An old Arizona joke asks, "How many Apaches are hid- ing in this room?" The answer is, "As many as want to." Ad- vanced communication technologies would be far more subtle than the stalking techniques of the Apaches. If Clarke is right, even on a materialistic level, the only answer to "How many Advanced Civilizations are monitoring the events in this room?" must be "As many as want to."

I lay down in the shower every morning and do 20 minutes of irest meditation to kick the day off. I feel like its been helpful, but sometimes I dont wanna get up when its over.

I listen to the same thing everyday and after the first 8 minutes or some it turns into a bunch of dumb sounding ****, but it helps me relax so idc.
