>Some techies may consider this acceptable. But their dream of immortality is illusory nonetheless. Competition for survival among entities derived from human beings (whether man-machine hybrids, purely artificial entities evolved from such hybrids, or human minds uploaded into machines), as well as competition between human-derived entities and those machines or other entities that are not derived from human beings, will lead to the elimination of all but some minute percentage of all the entities involved. This has nothing to do with any specific traits of human beings or of their machines; it is a general principle of evolution through natural selection. Look at biological evolution: Of all the species that have ever existed on Earth, only some tiny percentage have direct descendants that are still alive today.[21] On the basis of this principle alone, and even discounting everything else we've said in this chapter, the chances that any given techie will survive indefinitely are minute.

Techically no, but also yes. Aging doesn't seem to be a natural proces. It seems to be the result of soil depletion, and it also seems to be connected with the fact that mammals are unable to actually mature, they remain stuck in a juvenile phase, which isn't meant to exist long term, and disintegrates over time.

I hope they don't

uh what

It happened during, or right before the last glacial maximum. A lot of the extinct megafauna are just adult forms of well known animals, for example mammoths are genetically elephants, they are just fully grown up.
