Reflections on Zelar.City are out! The organizing team was
interviewed during the final days of the 5-week event and daily deep convos
We reflect on longevity industry and pop cities

Is it just me, or am I uncovering new reasons to pursue radical life extension? π€
(Of course, we're talking about biological age in theoretical high calendar-year-old 25-year-olds!)
Paper for reference:

1οΈβ£ It's way better to be a woman!
2οΈβ£ If you're a man lucky enough to live to 5,000 years, you're in a world where there are three 25-year-old Japanese women for every one of you!
3οΈβ£ If you've made it to 10,000 years, the number of women per man is ~7.5.
3οΈβ£ We also know there are big differences between male and female mortality rates. I found the mortality rates for 25-year-olds in Japan (0.02% for women, 0.04% for men) and plotted a graph. What do we observe?

Half the people will die before reaching 1,214.5 years
18% will live up to 3,000 years
5.78% will make it to 5,000 years
0.33% will reach 10,000 years
1οΈβ£ Even when we remove aging from the equation, there are still chances of dying (from infections, violence, accidents, and cancers). For 30-year-olds, the mortality rate in the paper is about ~0.057% per year, aligning with data from developed countries like Japan.

Way better than now!
But there are important nuances (I played around with the data for you): π
I've been digging into Andrew Scott's paper and found an interesting table modeling a theoretical therapy applied once a year that regenerates either 1 year, 9 months, 6 months, or 3 months of aging at different ages (see table).
