Thoughts about the old milestone and old road in Espoo (Life is a road, I want to keep going)


The old milestone

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Many memories are connected to scenes or landscapes. And there are many marks about how the advancing of the city and growing population changes the area and the lines of the roads, but there are still marks from the past times when the cars were smaller and driving speed was lower. Above the text is a picture of the old milestone, what is at the side of the old footpath in the city of Espoo. Of course, that milestone can be carried that place from somewhere else, but maybe that brought some thoughts about chance in my mind. And writing is the nice hobby, and I would like to tell those thoughts to you.


That kind of milestones are not made anymore, or they are on the side of bigger roads, and this picture remains, that in the past the roads were quite different than today. Today this old road does not even have the snow plow in winter time, and it tells something, how the road lines are changed in history. In the past, this road had some kind of meaning because there is a milestone, but then everything changed, and today the line of the main road is in the different place.

But that milestone remembers us, what kind of people lived in here near the capital in a couple of decades ago. The main roads were quite smaller than today, and this footpath is now only the memory from the times, where there were many agricultural fields. But then the price of the ground was raised, and that meant the farmers moved away and sold their farms to the city or building companies.


That meant the end of the agriculture here, near the capital of Finland, but there are many memories about those times, like straight ditches, what are still marking the places of the fields, even this area is now full of trees, and it's now forest area. But in the bottom of the forest is very easy to see the lines of ditches, what is filled with water in autumns and springs. This tells how long those marks of farms are staying in nature.

Antigravity will be the greatest thing. That we have ever created.

"Artistic depiction of a fictional anti-gravity vehicle" (Wikipedia, Anti-gravity) Sometimes, if the airships have the same lifting power as the weight of the airship.  It can act like some “antigravity system”. Those systems are based on lighter-than-air gas or hot air. The system can have a helium tank. And the hot-air section whose temperature can be adjusted using microwaves or particles that lasers warm. Those systems are faster to control than some gas flames. This makes it possible. To adjust the lifting power.  If a thing like a balloon has the same lifting power as its weight, the balloon can be lifted to a certain point and altitude. And the balloon stands at that point until something moves it. That kind of thing can make an impression. On the antigravity systems. Modern airships. Like Lockheed-Martin P-791 can look. Like a “UFO”. The system can use systems to move the craft. Or maybe those ion systems are used for plasma stealth systems, if those airships' mis...

Capitalism is a blessing and a curse.

Basically. There is nothing wrong with capitalism. The idea of capitalism is simple. If people like your products, they buy them. And that brings money to your bank accounts. If people don’t like our product, they don’t buy it. And that drives you into bankruptcy. That is the economic Darwinism. If the company cannot sell its products. That removes it from markets.  Other ways. We can say that if the company cannot answer those new challenges, it will be terminated immediately. In the Soviet Union, there was no capitalism. And the competition between companies. Did not exist. That caused a situation where the merchandise. With bad quality being. Entered. Into shops. Without competition, there was no development. And that turned those products old-fashioned. That raised the Soviets' addiction. To the natural resources. To get Western currency. They sold gas and oil to get dollars, which they needed to buy Western technology. That caused a situation. The Soviet technology started to ...

The problem with mirror life.

"Mirror life presents serious dangers, primarily due to its potential to interact unpredictably with the natural world. Without natural checks like predators or antibiotics, mirror organisms could replicate uncontrollably, creating risks that scientists are only beginning to understand. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, “Mirror Bacteria” Warning: A New Kind of Life Could Pose a Global Threat) When we think about artificial life, and especially mirror life. We must say. This technology. It can save billions of lives. But otherwise, those kinds of organisms could be hostile to their mirror forms. The shape of the mirror-life is like a form of a vampire. In movies, vampires look cute. But then. They show their real nature. The mirror-organisms are created for something. They look like original organisms. But they are AI-generated mirror-organisms. The purpose is to control things like hospital bacteria.  Mirror-life is the artificial life created by AI. And genologists. T...
