A MYSTERY - Why Did Bio-Supercomputing Go Dark?

a reply to: JinMI

Synchronicity?

Just read an ‘old’ book published in 1997, “Breakthrough” by R.J. Pineiro, a computer engineer. The story is about a small bio-tech start-up - and their bio-chip breakthrough “using proteins to process information, provide enough processing power to put the world’s fastest computer on every desktop, and revolutionize the computer industry” - that ends up “in the center of an international conflict to control their technology.”

Spoiler alert - The CIA buys the protein bio-chip tech from the venture capitalists who took control away from the start-up. The plan was for the (corporate-controlled) government to sit on the tech for 10 to 15 years, and protect US-based corporations’ investments in the ‘new’ silicon chip industry.

In Pineiro’s timeframe, protein bio-chips should have been introduced between 2007 and 2012. But there was a crash in 2008. So now, 20-odd years after “Breakthrough” was published, we’re starting to hear a bit about innovations in protein-based biocomputers… and a lot more about synthetic proteins being created for industry use.

So I wonder: Was Pineiro a visionary, prophet or whistleblower? What else did he know?

Alright. I will admit that I was struggling with the description of “time crystals” (which may have been deceptively named, a misnomer, to create uncertainty around this line of research).

All these years latter I finally have a great overview of “time crystals” and what they mean in a language we can all understand (if you get most fundamental science stuff)…

It may help us try to understand those super taboo topics that would lead us to “magic”….
