I got the impression that he is sincere and smart, but Nectome is just a two people show at this point, with a 2M runway. Robert hopes to be able to extract information about mental states from his preserved nervous tissue in a few years from now. I don't believe that they have a meaningful shot at reviving people, but then, nobody really does. While Robert seems to believe in his mission, I think that their market could be high end tissue preservation for forensics, medical diagnostics and neuroscience research. At the moment, they seem to be trying for the much smaller market of transhumanist funeral rites, but since they only share it with Alcor even that might work out. Unrelated: what do you think about Jim O'Neill? Cheers, Joscha

i feel like i owe the #EpsteinFiles a heavy debt for exposing me to these kinds of literary experiences.
