TIL: Long before named podcast, O'Reilly (yes, those with the animal books) produced a weekly talk radio show “Geek of the Week”. Thanks to the Internet Archive, quite some of the episodes are available for your enjoyment: archive.org/search?query=creat #vintagecomputing #retrocomputing #geekoftheweek

My [PODCAST] listen today: “Steven Johnson & Michael Specter on the Future of Life” (27 April 2024) by #TheNextBigIdea

Pocket CastsSteven Johnson & Michael Specter on the Future of Life - The Next Big IdeaLast month, longtime New Yorker staff writer Michael Specter released a brand new audiobook with our friends at Pushkin. It’s called “Higher Animals: Vaccines, Synthetic Biology, and the Future of Life,” and it’s an inspiring account of the emerging field of synthetic biology — a field where scientists combine chemistry, engineering, and computer science to develop new drugs and therapies for treating diseases of all sorts. This month, Steven Johnson, a frequent guest on this show and a contributing writer for The New York Times Magazine, is publishing a brand new audiobook of his own. It’s called “Immortality: A User’s Guide,” and it was produced by ... us! (You can get a copy here.) The premise is this: we might well be on the cusp of a revolution in the science of aging and we are not prepared for the consequences. Lots of similarities, right? So we decided to get Steven and Michael on the horn to talk about breakthrough technologies, radical life extension, and the future of our species.

Interested in displaying / sharing inspiring images of space exploration and space-related STEM engineering? I’ve created this sub-page of my “Wonder Links” curriculum page with direct links to Flickr photo streams from official NASA channels, SpaceX, the European Space Agency, and more:
lessons.wesfryer.com/wonder-li

(Open as self-advancing slideshows on a classroom TV or projector when it’s not being used for other purposes!)

The image features the NASA logo at the top, followed by the text "IMAGE SLIDESHOWS" in red and purple, over an illustration of a presentation board or computer screen displaying a picture.
