According to WA itself:
how many people have ever lived?
106.5 billion people
(as estimated in 2002 by the Population Reference Bureau which assumes
modern Homo sapiens appeared about 50,000 BC)
current world population: 6.869 billion people
In conclusion: more than 5% of all people have never died hence there is
no statistical evidence that supports this conclusion.
If you think earth is 4000 years old, there is even less evidence.

50,000 BC is a bit late, isn't it? I thought that aborigines had reached
Australia by at least that time.

Even if you are the last person alive, there would be no statistical
evidence to suggest you might die, for you can safely say "nobody that was I
has ever died".
Then again, there's no reason to assume we are born at a particularly
special location on the human timeline. If we are preceded by 100B humans,
we can expect another 100B or so will come after us before the end of
humanity. With a world population of 10B and life expectancy of 100 yrs, we
should not be too surprised(*) if humans go extinct in as near as 1000
years.
(*) Dead, sure, but not surprised.

What's more fascinating is the method they use to do this. In addition to
all the things you'd think of, the company that publishes the database also
has deals with Amazon, AOL, etc to get lists of IP vs sign-up geographic
locations. So when you sign up for a service (Amazon, facebook, etc) from a
particular IP, that and the address goes to the company, who then do
statistics to figure out if enough people with similar IP addresses are
putting in similar physical addresses.
At least, that's one way MaxMind works, and that's pretty much what most
people use.

That's OK. We can prove wasting time is Turing-equivalent to a CA.

Heh. I like the way you can fire up WA and just type stuff, and it's
like Star Trek - the computer spits out all sorts of formulas,
equations, graphs and so on. It's like SciFi.
The only problem is... when you actually want something specific, WA has
literally no clue what you're talking about.
Actually, no - the *other* problem is that WA serves no real purpose,
unless you happen to be a math geek. All the unit conversions and
currency conversions and all that stuff that normal people might want,
Google can already do. And it has done for years. WA doesn't really
offer anything new that's of practical use.

Also, it used to claim that the population of Bletchley was
(significantly) larger than the population of Milton Keynes - which is
absurd, considering that the former is a *subset of* the latter.
This issue has also now been rectified. (Although it took several
months... I'd forgotten that I even filed the ticket!)

Because:

As we get older we get more decrepit and eventually that would be
unbearable.
Life is not a bed of roses and there is only so much one can take.
But as I said, not just yet. ;-)

Since a large proportion of old people die a "natural" death instead of
committing suicide, I don't agree that there's an age (teenages included)
where life becomes unbearable. So I would not wish for somebody, or myself
(!), to die no matter how old they are. But more to the point, you cannot
keep on becoming more and more decrepid if you are not to die - at worst you
reach an asymptote, but more likely, curing of death involves maintaining a
high level of health.

Boredom, anomie, jadedness, the loss of cognitive powers, not to mention
lack of fulfilment add up to an unappetising prospect. Life is not a
book it hurts a lot for most people.

Nor do I unless they wish it.

You want health and happiness too? This does not sound like the human
condition. ;-)
Another point is I don’t want to be around in the latter part of the
sun’s life cycle, never mind after the heat death of the universe.

If it is the one I'm thinking of, the last time I heard it was at the
start of a bad trip. Not mine but I spent the rest of the evening
talking someone down. :-(
Ni! Ni!

I would expect that if any decent number of people got immortality, we'd
figure out how to get around that. It's a pretty common science fiction
theme, at least.

I hear there's this great restaurant ....
On a more serious note,
Yeah I've often pondered immortality. I think it would be a bad thing.
Now, if I could build up a retirement fund that would give me a
perpetually livable salary after, say, 65 years ... I'd be all for it.
But the prospect of having to do work that I don't want to do for
hundreds of years isn't all that exciting to me.
