The rate of world human population growth peaked in 1970

JasonCarswell · 2020-09-19T12:06:53+00:00

Even crazier when people's lifespan was like 36 or 42.

Imagine being the underaged semi-disposable wife of some 72 year old dude?

I never bought that old age shit. Maybe it's weeks or seasons or some other terrible translation - or more miracle shit.

If he's 72 but lives to 845, is he like 8yo in our years? Or is he old and wrinkly and broken at 72 - and only getting worse? NONE of it makes any sense.

Enza · 2020-09-14T20:41:01+00:00

*Still young nigga, still capable of doing great things.

Life is short. You aren't old. You know what I've been wondering lately? It's my first time actually reading the bible from start to finish (I'm just curious, ok), and as the lineage of "man" unfolds, each generation went from living long ass lifespans (like 845) to living to 92. Wtf happened? God even fucked with Abram (gave him the Abraham lineage and name! Vamped up from Abram!) but his life-span was still shot by like 500 years compared to his fore-fathers.

Imagine if we had life-spans like that today? lol 50 years would be a joke (it still is imho, we live so fucking short. Just long enough to participate in the world that came before us, and see the new world forming). There was some dudes in the bible who didn't bust their first nut until they were like 72, dead ass. lmao. Imagine having your first kid/busting your first nut at 72? And living to be 889 years old? Geeze.

Happy real birthday, my ninja!

magnora7 · 2020-09-12T20:22:54+00:00

Yup. But that's going to become an outdated and unsustainable model, so a new model will be forced to become the focus.

While we could certainly become a sustainable species, "they" don't want that.

My birth year. I turn 50 tomorrow.

Without growth, economists and economies will shit a brick.

The whole fucking model is based on growth is good.

magnora7 · 2020-09-11T23:06:05+00:00

Here's a second data source showing the rate of population growth: http://www.vhemt.org/worldpopgrowrate1950-2050.jpg

This one shows it peaking in about 1964. I think the dip in 1960 is from Mao's "Great Leap Forward"

magnora7 · 2020-09-11T23:04:12+00:00

The number itself is still obviously growing, but the rate at which it grows peaked 50 years ago and has only been declining ever since.

World population is expected to naturally peak at about 11-12 billion, and then we will live in a different era of stabilization rather than rapid explosive growth. This will cause big changes to world culture as the decades pass. Like the number of homes will match the number of people, instead of constantly needing to build new ones. Food supply chains will be stable instead of growing so it will be easier to prevent catastrophes. It might actually become possible to feed all the children. It could create a golden age of prosperity naturally, just simply for supply and demand reasons. It is interesting to think about.

Jesus · 2020-08-23T01:28:18+00:00

We still have saudi arabia though, and the US has plenty of stock domestically that will last for hundreds of years. We also can switch to alternative means.

The fed right now is running a deficit every 2 weeks on par with the entire deficit of the year 2008

So then what do you suppose people do to protect themselves?

magnora7 · 2020-08-22T08:52:06+00:00

let's hope inflation doesn't skyrocket.

Oh it will. The petrodollar is ending, and if the money contained in the stock market leaks in to consumer prices (which it has and will continue to do) then we will most definitely see inflation. The fed right now is running a deficit every 2 weeks on par with the entire deficit of the year 2008

Jesus · 2020-08-22T02:22:05+00:00

It is but do we see the social torment yet? I don't see it but their was always the silent class who have been forgotten. 25% of children in the US live in poverty not much news about this.

This reminds me of 1920's Germany, let's hope inflation doesn't skyrocket.

Horrux · 2020-08-18T19:20:54+00:00

But if you work really hard, you will keep your job and become a multibillionaire, we promise.

Wait, this was the weak first wave. Just you wait, they got other waves up their sleeves.

magnora7 · 2020-08-18T06:51:33+00:00

Kind of jaw dropping

magnora7 · 2020-06-08T04:17:42+00:00

The sun goes through these cycles every 11 years, where it will emit a lot and then 6.5 years later be at a solar minimum and emit very little. The difference in these emissions significantly changes the density of the earth's atmosphere in high altitudes.

I thought that was interesting.

Nemacolin · 2020-01-17T07:58:34+00:00

Very informative. Thank you.

Here's the article I got this from: https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-08-24/us-becoming-third-world-nation

Jesus · 2019-06-15T01:15:47+00:00

They have been hijacked. Our economy is going to collapse again anyway. And dedollarization is happening at a very fast pace. The US isn't looking good.

Jesus · 2019-06-15T01:14:18+00:00

And it is intentional, also, they'd rather you not own anything, espeically a home.

d3rr · 2019-06-14T01:22:08+00:00

Way cool. I'd like to see all of these on a longer timeline and the same timeline.

The mighty have fallen.

sawboss · 2019-06-13T23:39:09+00:00

student loans: state power, rising
food stamps: state power, rising
federal debt: state power, rising
money printing: state power, rising
insurance costs: state power, rising
labor force participation: populace, declining
workers' share of economy: populace, declining
median family income: populace, declining
home ownership: populace, declining

Now ask yourself this: Where is the incentive for the state to respond to concerns of the populace?

Wow I had no idea Huawei does 3x the phone business of Samsung. Simple.

They sell their phones lower than the making cost in US.

I think you know what they really want.

JasonCarswell · 2019-06-08T08:40:31+00:00

USA = 300m+

That has been true all my life. But now I know you're interested in switches. Hmm.

Snow · 2019-06-05T12:48:24+00:00

The most likely possibility in your mind may not be the truth.

Only estrogen can't make them taking care of children, is the whole thing...

hennaojisan · 2019-06-05T06:14:43+00:00

Ha. No, I have never dated any models. The models I meant were Panasonic camera model numbers, but I'm sure you know that. You are pretty clever to make jokes across languages that is really hard to do.

At first, I thought you were a clever young man, like me, but now I'm thinking you might be a medical doctor. You do not need to comment on that.

Snow · 2019-06-05T05:51:50+00:00

I don't like people talking too much if I said "I don't want to talk about this".

Some people never respect me for that,and they love to claim they are "sociable",which is BS bombard.

hennaojisan · 2019-06-05T05:44:29+00:00

Male and female brains are definitely wired differently. And although both sexes have testosterone and estrogen, male testosterone levels make them want to see what is on the other side of the mountain and estrogen keeps women at home taking care of children. Of course, that is a wild exaggeration but that is what I do when I generalize. :)

In grad school, I had a female professor who kept saying: studies show that males talk more than females and tend to dominate conversations. I looked at the studies she was talking about and they had a tiny number of subjects and no control for socio-economic level. Anyway, years later I did a study with 200 first-year college students and got my controversial results. In some fields, feminism distorted the results that got published.

I put that book in my shopping cart.

Snow · 2019-06-05T03:24:11+00:00

Okay then.

Snow · 2019-06-05T03:23:26+00:00

Better than no models.

hennaojisan · 2019-06-05T02:42:45+00:00

It's a subject I'm interested in and even wrote a paper on a long time ago. I got lots of hate mail from women about it but then a few years later a famous woman wrote a book that agreed with my ideas but, of course, didn't mention my name. But I got no respect for saying it first.

Now I have to go to the gym. If I don't go before noon, I never go. Later.

Snow · 2019-06-05T02:33:15+00:00

I don't know how to explain it without usually that Chinese word.

hennaojisan · 2019-06-05T02:30:08+00:00

Nice web site. I used to have a Panasonic digicam that zoomed from 28 to 270mm. When my wife and I split up briefly as almost everybody does, I left it at a different woman's apartment and never went back to get it. The models that followed that model were not as good. You have convinced me, so next time I will try an ultrawide lens.

hennaojisan · 2019-06-05T02:23:56+00:00

If you say it in the US—and I say it too—that male and female brains are different, you will be attacked by leftists with baseball bats. Maybe in your, secret, country, it is all right though. :)

In Japan 交 means "it is all right to cross the street here." I have to check to see what the other meanings are.

zyxzevn · 2019-06-04T14:13:27+00:00

This is also due to facebook and instagram that connected the camera on the mobile phone directly to the internet for sharing.

Because of peripheral vision, a young human can see—or at least be aware of—a bit over 180 degrees. You can't really see anything clearly at the extreme edge of your vision, but you are aware of movement.

I know,but I wanted to say in the memory,seem others would have less angle in their memory...Never mind,It's a kind of feeling hard to explain.

thousands of parents have been calling their local city halls asking about what they can do about their hikikomori children, who are almost always male.

Not must be male,is higher chance to be male,this is the reaction of male brain grow up in an unfriendly environment,female brain grow up in an unfriendly environment would become attention whores and bitches(in most people's words),because only the female brain is "forced social",this term is invented by myself. They can be "交" even in horrible environment ,which I feel is horrible.

Hikikomori have the problem to love humans ,their parents have to ask themselves why they rise a child can't love humans rather than use the murder event to ask the city halls,they shirk the fostering responsibility to the society.

hennaojisan · 2019-06-04T11:50:43+00:00

Because of peripheral vision, a young human can see—or at least be aware of—a bit over 180 degrees. You can't really see anything clearly at the extreme edge of your vision, but you are aware of movement.

Fun fact: Japan has a population of about 126 million but has more than 100 thousand hikikomori and the number is growing. Since the Kawasaki incident, thousands of parents have been calling their local city halls asking about what they can do about their hikikomori children, who are almost always male.

Anyone remember when Napster changed everything? I filled up a few hard drives until I got a message on my screen: you are uploading music by Bill Evans that is copyright protected—cease and desist. I just laughed and kept on downloading, until a couple of weeks later they blocked my IP.

Snow · 2019-06-04T11:23:25+00:00

That really is wide angle.

I checked the locale wikipedia ,the definition of ultra wide angle is 12mm-24mm...When I answer you,I reference this:

https://imaging.nikon.com/lineup/lens/simulator/

Angle of view:110°~90°

While I remind memories in my mind,usually is this angle of view.I guess it's very uncommon in human?

Latest update on the Kawasaki Slasher

I don't think it's completely random,he is targeted a private primary school.Japanese media like to spread the fear of murder.

hennaojisan · 2019-06-04T10:23:00+00:00

That really is wide angle. A good old 28mm is good enough for me. I'm more narrow-minded.

Latest update on the Kawasaki Slasher: His aunt and uncle had not seen his face for over 15 years. He was spotted on a surveillance camera at the scene of the crime four days before he slashed all those people so the crime was not completely random. When Japanese TV gets a story like this, every channel spends hours a day repeating the same stuff over and over with different "experts" called in to comment.

Snow · 2019-06-04T10:05:58+00:00

I prefer 20-14mm.

hennaojisan · 2019-06-04T10:00:29+00:00

Do you want 28mm or even wider? If it is 14mm or wider, you would say a fish-eye lens.

I see the world through an ultra wide-angle (XXmm) lens.< That's what I think you want to say. And, yes, I think you do.

JasonCarswell · 2019-06-04T06:03:10+00:00

I didn't find a good one on walkman-discman-ipod sales though.

If one were really motivated all of those could be adapted into a single timeline.

I don't know how to say ,ultra wide-angle lens is the angle of how I view the world.

The most interesting thing is the red part can't cover the total lose. The industry is falling,it must became far more depend on big investment.The purpose of big investment is not for get the money back from this industry.

A few nights ago the wife and I were looking at the Sharper Image website as a laugh. They have some outrageous products that no one needs. One product is a relatively HUGE lens that attaches to your smartphone. What a laugh.

hennaojisan · 2019-06-04T01:42:31+00:00

Me too. I have a Panasonic/Leica small digital camera that zooms down to 28mm. Besides that, I've sold all my camera equipment. I use an iPhone 4s and it is good enough for my everyday needs, although I want a new DSLR—as soon as gold goes up in price.

Snow · 2019-06-03T16:40:40+00:00

I was going to get a one before you say this.

Edited:But I hate Apple.

magnora7 · 2019-06-03T16:39:45+00:00

My friend has a phone with snap-on lenses and one of them is a wide-angle lens. It's called "moment" or something, it's an add-on to an iphone

Most people don't need such good quality with more weight.

trevmon · 2019-06-03T15:20:05+00:00

do you know what exact phone it was, i was thinking of getting a google pixel 10 because I heard the camera was good but then reviews said they purposely slow it down just like apple does with iphones so I noped out

magnora7 · 2019-06-03T14:57:10+00:00

My friend has a 10 megapixel camera phone and the photos look amazing. And I have a DSLR so I know what I'm talking about.

But the compact camera market is basically dead now thanks to phones. DSLRs will live on of course because of the nice lenses.

trevmon · 2019-06-03T14:37:40+00:00

cellphone cameras still aren't high quality enough

magnora7 · 2019-06-03T14:18:10+00:00

Pretty crazy... I remember those compact digital cameras with the sliding front covers and stuff, I guess those are basically worthless nowadays. I think the last one of those I owned was about 2008, which is just before the peak of the graph.
