...</title><content type='html'>Sorry to hear about another person dying young.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quite a few people in the news lately dying young from heart conditions.  It&amp;#39;s frightening that the heart is a muscle in the human body that has to keep working perfectly all the time or you drop dead.  Unfortunately Mac is a warning that it can happen to any of us anytime.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It&amp;#39;s possible that a simple cocktail of supplements could drastically cut risks from heart aliments.  Since I have a couple of risk factors for heart disease, I will share my own &amp;#39;hack&amp;#39; - a cheap daily cocktail that other transhumanists might want to consider:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Omega 3 &lt;br /&gt;Aspirin&lt;br /&gt;Calcium/Vitamin D combo&lt;br /&gt;Zinc/Magnesium combo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is evidence that each of these on its own cuts risk of heart aliments by 25%.  (Google for research details).  If they have a combinatorial effect the cocktail of the above 4 elements could cut risk by more than half (1.25^4=2.44).</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6753820/6302186976565350024/comments/default/3836754429920381517'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6753820/6302186976565350024/comments/default/3836754429920381517'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.sentientdevelopments.com/2009/10/remembering-mac-tonnies.html?showComment=1256860071610#c3836754429920381517' title=''/><author><name>Marc_Geddes</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07742429508206464486</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.sentientdevelopments.com/2009/10/remembering-mac-tonnies.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6753820.post-6302186976565350024' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6753820/posts/default/6302186976565350024' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6753820.post-7683577345117757266</id><published>2009-10-25T15:30:32.011-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-25T15:30:32.011-04:00</updated><title type='text'>No offense George but out of all the futurist blog...</title><content type='html'>No offense George but out of all the futurist bloggers he was my favorite.

I had a few exchanges with Mac via Twitter; he seemed every bit a charming man. It&amp;#39;s clear from what people are writing that he was regarded warmly by friends and readers alike. Like you, George, I couldn&amp;#39;t go the distance with him on some of his intellectual sojourns, but I came to respect the spirit of honesty with which he proceeded. And he was a damn fine writer, to boot. We&amp;#39;ve been talking about him all day over here. You are missed, Mac!</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6753820/6302186976565350024/comments/default/3487084847837949357'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6753820/6302186976565350024/comments/default/3487084847837949357'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.sentientdevelopments.com/2009/10/remembering-mac-tonnies.html?showComment=1256351221652#c3487084847837949357' title=''/><author><name>Jayar</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05848176012360533142</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.sentientdevelopments.com/2009/10/remembering-mac-tonnies.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6753820.post-6302186976565350024' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6753820/posts/default/6302186976565350024' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
