Summary

On this, our 301st Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss grief and mourning, and what makes us human. How many distinctly human traits will we prune away before we realize that we have gone too far, that there is too little remaining of humanity to be resurrected? From the Industrial Revolution(s) to that of AI, now we’ve got apps that threaten to keep your loved ones “alive” forever, with none of the valuable complexity that ancient grieving traditions offer. Then: bonobos show evidence o...

0:00.0	Hey, folks, welcome to the Dark Horse podcast live stream.
0:09.0	It is number 301.
0:12.0	I am not even embarrassed.
0:14.1	I am mortified.
0:15.9	Oh, no.
0:16.8	Mortified.
0:17.5	So early in a weekend?
0:19.3	I am mortified.
0:20.0	Yeah, I know it's the beginning of the weekend. We got a ways to go. But I am mortified that early in a weekend i am mortified yeah i know it's the beginning of the weekend we got a ways
0:22.5	to go but i am mortified that i looked at 3001 and felt strongly that it was going to be prime
0:29.0	and then i revealed to you that uh as is my want on my hike yesterday i started going through the

I have not considered, let's see, it's going to be 73, seven by, no, no, no, 43, seven by 43. Yeah. So at least 43 as well. Yeah. But I mean, 43 on its own wouldn't do it. You need the seven. I don't think you're giving your cause.
1:28.8	I'm not.
1:30.6	I'm just, I'm, I'm, I'm grasping at straws with respect to, um, to the mortifying
1:36.8	misassessment of the primness of 3001.
