Suggested Reading 27

*In* *this series**, I assume the role of a reader instead of a writer, discussing articles by other writers... things I recommend.* https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/index-over-my-articles-at-read-cash-5f7c1e34#suggested-reading *It's only a few days since I posted* *Suggested Reading 26**, but before that, there was a long break; I had too many posts to suggest for only one issue. The rest are coming here, together with a few new ones.* https://read.cash/@Mictorrani/suggested-reading-26-eb5c2de3 “*We do not know the outcome of scientific and technological advances. But we do know that everyday fiction mixes with reality.* *Who knows if the singularity is already among us!”* This (above) is quoted from the most recent article by @Jnavedan - LaMDA. To be or not to be? https://read.cash/@Jnavedan https://read.cash/@Jnavedan/lamda-to-be-or-not-to-be-a8afbfce @Bjorn published a thought-provoking article, Defying Age, where he speculates about how it would be to stop ageing – grow very old but still look young. It's easy to wish for that, but perhaps it is not entirely without difficult consequences. https://read.cash/@Bjorn https://read.cash/@Bjorn/defying-age-d1c99cdf Age is just a series of numbers, everyone has their own shining time, claims @Konin https://read.cash/@Konin/age-is-just-a-series-of-numbers-everyone-has-their-own-shining-time-107fc000 New member @nimrakhan says Change yourself for a change in life - and @esmeesmith explains that Everything Compounds in Life, Money & Relationship. https://read.cash/@nimrakhan https://read.cash/@nimrakhan/change-yourself-for-a-change-in-life-36f66d10 https://read.cash/@esmeesmith https://read.cash/@esmeesmith/everything-compounds-in-life-money-relationship-633d9705 @Malikbrothers786 gives us Tricks to improve our memorization power! https://read.cash/@Malikbrothers786 https://read.cash/@Malikbrothers786/tricks-to-improve-our-memorization-power-0ee77e77 If you like history and mythology, you just have to read @beyourself - who regularly writes about these topics. For a full list of his articles, visit his profile; I can only give some examples here: Prometheus:The Fire Bringer, Pegasus-Winged Horse of Greek Mythology, and The Wrath of Achilles. https://read.cash/@beyourself https://read.cash/@beyourself/prometheusthe-fire-bringer-1e84e72e https://read.cash/@beyourself/pegasus-winged-horse-of-greek-mythology-fb3ff7e1 https://read.cash/@beyourself/the-wrath-of-achilles-ca352961 @Humanpsychology wrote several good articles about selected artists from history, but became silent a month ago. I hope this author returns, his material was of a very high quality. His most recent posts were: Salvador Dali (1904-1989), Diego Rodriguez de Silva Velazquez (1599-1660), Vincent Van Gogh (1953-1890), Donatello (1386-1466), and Viktor Mikhaylovich Vasnetsov. https://read.cash/@Humanpsychology https://read.cash/@Humanpsychology/salvador-dali-1904-1989-37f233dd https://read.cash/@Humanpsychology/diego-rodriguez-de-silva-velazquez-1599-1660-47a22c15 https://read.cash/@Humanpsychology/vincent-van-gogh-1953-1890-38025c29 https://read.cash/@Humanpsychology/donatello-1386-1466-d4dafda5 https://read.cash/@Humanpsychology/viktor-mikhaylovich-vasnetsov-ad0b2db2 (When I had finished writing this post, but before I published it, I saw that @Humanpsychology had indeed returned meanwhile. He/she posted Valentin Aleksandrovich Serov (1865-1911).) https://read.cash/@Humanpsychology https://read.cash/@Humanpsychology/valentin-aleksandrovich-serov-1865-1911-f5bbe6b2 @BettyRB also sometimes writes about history. Some recent examples: The Temple of Edfu, a magnificent and symbolic site, The secret that keeps the largest pyramid in Egypt inside, and History of Oya, the museum that has its history written in stones! I would also like to recommend Wisteria tree that is 144 years old and The world's largest wooden xylophone! by the same author. https://read.cash/@BettyRB https://read.cash/@BettyRB/the-temple-of-edfu-a-magnificent-and-symbolic-site-8158b506 https://read.cash/@BettyRB/the-secret-that-keeps-the-largest-pyramid-in-egypt-inside-d89c555b https://read.cash/@BettyRB/history-of-oya-the-museum-that-has-its-history-written-in-stones-97854024 https://read.cash/@BettyRB/wisteria-tree-that-is-144-years-old-67f08efb https://read.cash/@BettyRB/the-worlds-largest-wooden-xylophone-8f1e6a6d A Faithful Genius! - The Man Who Knew Infinity by @foryoubtc09 discusses Ramanujan, one of the most remarkable geniuses in human history.

I would call some of them fables: Folk tale: Animal kingdom, Folktale:why the tortoise shell looks cracked, Why do bats come out only at night, Elephant and the turtle, Folktales: disadvantage of greediness...
