degenerative

I have a degenerative bone disease that's caused me to have 6 major surgeries in 6 years. If this is a simulation, when I get out, I'm going to kill the son of a bitch that put me in here.

We all express the symptoms of a fatal, inherited degenerative condition called aging - or so the joke goes. It's a dark joke, but there's truth to be found in it, as is often the case in black humor.

Aging sucks and we should fix it, for the same reason that we should cure any other degenerative condition. Also, doing so would in one shot solve the impending Medicare fiscal train wreck.

Some people would like to turn the technology startup world into one great big company with a degenerative Can’t-Do Culture. That's VC-istan, not in some future dystopia but right now.

It is a degenerative state of the same system that produces healthy cells and fertile humans. It is genetically very diverse.

Given that, one could envision degenerative cases for which Sleep sort could in theory outperform a standard algorithms like quicksort.

In it he points out how some people with Alzheimers or other degenerative brain damage can use familiar music to co-ordinate a sort of 'flow' a rhythm of activity. When I am coding it is like this.

Those official levels were set to prevent people from getting rickets, NOT to prevent degenerative diseases or maintain optimum health. In fact those official recommendations have been creeping upwards in a lot of places.

I don't think you appreciate how difficult it can be to provide care for some one with old age/dementia or a neurally degenerative disease like Parkinsons or Alzheimer's. Caregivers need more tools and this would be one that would help for some people.

This type of degenerative side effect though might especially express itself later in life: making you much more likely to develop say dementia earlier than a normal human. It's not like it would be an immediate side effect.

"Nevertheless, this work supports studies [51], [57], [58], [59] that demonstrate that drugs shown to increase the levels of dopamine in the synaptic cleft can contribute to degenerative changes in the basal ganglia."

My genetic disorder is deemed to be degenerative and fatal. I have reversed a lot of the symptoms, gotten off eight prescription drugs and gotten my life back. I recommend against colloidal silver any time anyone asks me. I am clear the build up of poisons in the body is why my condition is degenerative.

Imagine that everyone who new he had a high propensity for a degenerative disease made a very rational choice to buy nursing home insurance. The insurance companies would have little alternative but to price their products based on the the probability that those who are genetically predisposed to such illnesses would comprise the risk pool.

We're already making anti-degenerative-diseases progress and hopefully figuring out nutrition for real, as well as cracking DNA and various personalized medicines. Intelligence augmentation will be bitterly debated and fought against when it comes online, but it's a hell of a lot better than some of the alternatives.

The majority of those people are also poor - the poor suffer far more greatly than the wealthy because of degenerative aging due to their comparative lack of access to what palliative treatments do exist. If not for aging, the poor might have a far better chance of bettering their lot in life - they'd have no imposed time limit on working their way out of poverty, no need for large families to support them in their old age, and so forth.

Outside of degenerative aging, becoming older is so good that people are driven to apologism for the fact that aging cripples and kills them - they conflate being old and being aged, seeing two very different things as one, and a certain confusion arises after that point. Consider how much better it will be to be older once we start being able to treat the root causes of the degenerative medical condition called aging.

, that we often feel sorry for and assume will be miserable, all tend to return to base level happiness fairly quickly on average with the exception of those with degenerative conditions that put them on an ongoing downward trajectory. In fact, some groups will tend to be more happy than typical: Those who are slowly recovering from a horrible situation, and who thus see steady improvement in their situation.
