"I'M SITTING in a darkened hall listening to neuroscientist Anders Sandberg describe how to scan ultra-thin sections of brain. First, embed the brain in plastic, then use a camera combined with laser beam and diamond blade to capture images of the tissue as it is sliced.

The method is being developed (in mice, so far) to better understand the architecture of the brain. But Sandberg, who is based at the University of Oxford, has a rather more ambitious aim in mind. For him, this work is merely the first step towards uploading the contents of human brains - memories, emotions and all - onto a computer."

I read this description in "Death special: The plan for eternal life" and thought of Sylar, by cutting Other people's brains, study the action form of the brain to obtain the law of the operation of things, so as to obtain superpowers, which is Sylar's ability.

Matt is good at reading minds. In "Out of time", he has surpassed his father and instead trapped Maury in a nightmare. So, where do people's nightmares come from? How does it exist in the brain? If the memory that triggered the nightmare is forgotten, where will Maury start?

Last Saturday, when I was climbing the mountain, I was thinking about CoP, social networks, and countless magnificent ideas. My heart was full of excitement. Because there was no paper and pen at that time, and my phone was almost out of power, I couldn’t remember it. Later, most of it was forgotten, of course. They will still be remembered, because this is my subject, and I will not give up until I write an article, but if there is a device that can record the thoughts of the brain in real time, such as personal brainstorming, first exist in a messy way , and then organized into a systematic and structured way, in the way of Mindmanager or Pesonal Brain, they are direct records, rather than a transit, to translate thoughts into words, or pictures, the latter, which we have to adopt now way, but of course it should be admitted that it is inefficient. And if there is such a device, it also answered the question of "how to effectively express thinking" when I was doing mind mapping training last Thursday. What he asked was the confusion of most people, Tacit knowledge becomes explicit, and not everyone can master it proficiently, so we often see unintelligible scriptures. Thinking will be missing and deformed in the process of transition, and this method should be avoided.

From the dialectics of thinking and existence, "I think, therefore I am", if it is true, then if I do not think, then I am not there? Ideology needs to be attached to matter, so brain death becomes the standard of death, so people who are craniotomized by Sylar die without exception, their abilities are absorbed by Sylar, and what if Sylar absorbs their consciousness? (Similar to the Beiming magic that absorbs internal power in "Dragon Babu"?) So, can it be said that these people were born in Sylar?

Throughout the ages, countless people have died, but their thoughts have been passed down through books, folk tales, etc., such as the legend of Miyamoto Musashi, in the seventh episode of Heroes, when Hiro and Eiko parted under the cherry tree, about The dialogue in the story is really touching, reminiscent of Yi Shu's "Chao Hua Xi Shi", but the fate of the hero and heroine has been swapped, imagine such a sensational scene: Yingzi died, and her tombstone is engraved with: Hiro, I love you forever. And 400 years later, Hiro went to Yingzi's tomb to pay his respects. What did he feel when he saw this line of characters? Life doesn't last forever, but love does, love lives forever through death.

So, can it be said that they are still alive? Because consciousness is, in other ways, in the world. ——Let's not care about the loneliness behind him, and just want to live forever. In this sense, sustainable survival is also possible, right? Beyond the mortal body, beyond the time and space, this is the immortality that countless people yearn for. Although it is ruthlessly ridiculed by Kundera, will Kundera himself obtain immortality through his book?

But in the era of network economy, knowledge explodes, and everything is so fast. It is true that running water does not rot, but if the running water is too fast, it is easy to wash everything too quickly. The current limit of Personal Brain is 50,000 entries, so what about the future? Can we put a limit on the brain? We are eager to seek outward, but we tend to ignore the purpose of this life, the difference between life and life, and our brain itself. Sometimes, what it needs most is not being full but empty, so I admire Fang Jun, "persistently give myself some time every day to think and evolve".

evolution. One of Heroes' themes.

Evolution refers to "the gradual development and change of things, especially the evolution of organisms from a lower and simpler state to a higher and more complex state". Advanced and complex to the point of Adam, will see himself as a god. God said, let there be light, and there was light, and God said, let there be light, and there was light. God saw that the light was good and separated the light from the darkness. God sees people as inferior, so he came to a great flood to destroy mankind, and out of mercy, he made Noah build an ark to preserve the species on the earth (the species that God seems to be excellent). For Heroes' screenwriters, Adam and Noah are like this The name of Heroes may not be easy to come by, of course, we do not expect that Heroes can see the philosophical significance like Matrix.

Therefore, Buddhism teaches that all living beings are equal, wisdom and compassion. If a person is only wise, he can look down on the mountains and look down upon the mountains, then he can easily look down on all living beings, and see all things like a dog. Adam obviously does not have compassion, and Noah, sadly, his compassion is limited. From the first season to the second season, it can be seen that a person's trajectory of change (not evolution), in the name of love, in order to defend his family, So, are murder and arson all just acts?

From this, we entered the issue of Do right things and do things right. Suresh admitted that he and Mr. Bennet wanted to bring down the company because he couldn't tell who was right and who was wrong. Our actions follow our heart (or brain), but are we clear about our purpose in life? Can you tell the difference between needs and wants? How much of what we do every day revolves around our goals? Too many times, the opposite is true. The harder you work, the farther you are from your goal. Shangqiongbi fell to Huangquan, and the two places were nowhere to be seen.

If it is, everyone knows clearly that Huang Quan is his last residence. When he is alive, will he still care about those trivial things?

It's a pity, ignorant people... (This sentence is similar to Adam's tone).

Evolution, from low-level to high-level, from simple to complex, is a process. Hundreds of thousands of years have passed since human evolution, but poor us, poor life, so far no one has ever lived to be more than 200 years old, Just be sure to stay sane when watching Heroes and don't think people like Adam are real. Dreams are often splendid and reality is often narrow. From the single-plank bridge of reality to the dream, it needs to be cultivated. Some people can achieve it, and some people can't.

If this ability is also attributed to evolution, then ignorance and ignorance are inevitable at the beginning, and making mistakes is inevitable, so Xi Murong has a poem "Does youth must be ignorant and love must be sad?" The rhetorical question, the answer is affirmative. As a character, we keep asking ourselves, if I were Peter, what would I be like? What if I was Sylar? ——The child is not a fish, how can I know how the fish is?

"There is a fish in Beiming, its name is Kun. Kun is so big, I don't know how many thousands of miles it is. When it turns into a bird, its name is Peng. The back of Peng, I don't know how many thousands of miles it is. When it flies in anger, its wings are like Clouds hanging from the sky." Life is limited, but vision is unlimited. For Heroes' analysis, in fact, everyone has their own imprint of age, industry, educational background, etc. How many people can break through this limitation? I came along knowledge management, to CoP, to social network, to six-dimensional space, to Ruo Lin, thinking is like climbing a vine, I don't know where it leads, but I know that the final point is in "Life" , When looking at Mao Xianghui's blog, I was very happy to find that his blog is called "Life2.0", and his English name is "Isaac Mao".

Isaac, the "screenwriter" in Heroes, draws the future and even his own death. Mao Xianghui, as the promoter of Chinese blogs, is Life to him, is it life or life? Or a combination of the two? And 2.0, how to upgrade to? I am looking for Mao Xianghui, hoping to find an answer from him. In principle, according to the six-dimensional space theory, I can find him with no more than six people, but in Ruolin, I found that, in fact, there are still obstacles, two key points: one is the lack of a connector between me and Mao Xianghui. , Second, I don't know Mao Xianghui's email address, and this is a key.

We're always looking for the key, aren't we? Open one door, enter the next, cross one blockade, cross another, swing between "May it be" and "You must".

But time, time is so limited. "They say nothing lasts forevey, we're only here today."

Can we listen to all 3 million songs on LastFM in our lifetime? Can we read all the entries Baidu knows? Can we watch all the movies in this world? ...If that's the case, why should I waste my life on pointless things?

"Life is precious, and freedom is more expensive." Here, the meaning of freedom is higher than life, and freedom can be replaced with any other word, as long as it is recognized by oneself and the public - the public cannot be excluded, because, "in the world There are only two things that can deeply shock people's hearts: one is the lofty moral standards in our hearts; the other is the splendid starry sky above us." The Nazis advocated beauty and order, but they only cared about themselves, and At the cost of beauty and order in the deaths of thousands. Along the long road of life, everyone pursues different goals, and the splendor of life is derived from this. Therefore, I have always emphasized respect, respect for the freedom of others, and do not interfere or deprive them in the name of love and care. Mr. Bennet, in a way, is it interfering and depriving? Love and responsibility are helpless and heavy propositions. The meaning of responsibility is to say that if you choose, don't complain and regret. After all, people are not pure loneliness in this world. The meaning of life sometimes lies in giving up other things for the sake of responsibility. Value may or may not be the standard of measurement. It is all a matter of personal choice. If we complain that our choices are mostly because of others, then, Ah Q, we can also think that this is a kind of happiness, because there are people in the world who are worthy of you.

One of the hallmarks of wasting a life is complaining while choosing. When you are in a state of hatred, when you leave the state of love, you will never be able to live in peace.

Complaining, complaining, and complaining, endlessly. Many people know the difference between giving up and gaining, and knowing that one must give up first, but, after all, giving up is difficult, right? Wang Yukun said in Kazuo Inamori's Thinking of the Powerful, the more affectionate a person is, the more ruthless he can be. That is the two poles necessary to be successful or powerful.

There are too many philosophies in life, and we may only be on the road of exploration in this life, and there is no conclusion whether we have attained the Tao, more or less. From the agricultural economy to the industrial economy to the knowledge economy, the environment around us is changing rapidly. What about our consciousness? What is our pursuit? What about our living conditions? Where is the boundary between Life1.0 and Life2.0?

Living with a clear consciousness is a very difficult thing. Knowing what you want and thus knowing what to reject is a kind of cultivation. The dream of sustainable survival has a premise, which is the love and reluctance for life. If life is not worth cherishing, then perpetuity is meaningless.

Zhou Guoping commented on Yuan Mei, "On the one hand, I fully understand the essence of life, and on the other hand, I am full of enthusiasm for life." Life and death, if examined, may be negative. When I read "Talking about Eating with the Garden", what I read was not only the food, but also the attitude towards life. We usually eat, but where are we actually eating? It is often eaten without knowing the taste. From this point of view, the chickens, ducks and pigs we eat are not worth dying - their lives are meaningless because of our neglect. From the perspective of resource consumption, sustainable survival can only be placed on consciousness rather than the body, otherwise, there will be no matching resources at all.

Eternal life is like a surge, in fact, life has become a tragedy. While we are exploring sustainable survival, we, more importantly, cherish our present life. Right now. Long and short, eternity and moment, were originally relative concepts. If life can bloom as gorgeously as a flower, then a short life will have more value and meaning. For sustainable survival, we will not give up. The exploration of the human brain will not stop. As ordinary people, what we can do is to wait and live every day.
