My latest video is about prenatal and infant development. It begins the part of my series on developmental psychology, where I go over the psychological development of a person throughout their whole life, from before to after their death.

Memento mori — remember death! These are important words. If we kept in mind that we will soon inevitably die, our lives would be completely different. If a person knows that he will die in a half hour, he certainly will not bother doing trivial, stupid, or, especially, bad things during this half hour. Perhaps you have half a century before you die — what makes this any different from a half hour?
Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910) Russian novelist and moral philosopher
Path of Life [Calendar of Wisdom; Круг чтения], ch. 21 “Living in the Present,” sec. 5.12 (1903-1911) [(tr. Cote (2002)]More about this quote: wist.info/tolstoy-leo/83806/

• Cognitive Scaffolding: Examining the dynamic plasticity of the adult brain through the lens of the famous "London Taxi Driver" study and the Scaffolding Theory of Aging and Cognition (STAC).Aging is not an inevitability that simply happens to you; it is a malleable interplay of biology, environment, and daily habits. Join us as we shift the question from "Will I live?" to "How well will I live?"

• The Cellular Mechanics of Choice: How specific behaviors like caloric restriction and a Mediterranean diet don't just "feel good"—they actually trigger cellular repair modes and signal enzymes like telomerase to rebuild the protective caps on your DNA.##ageing

Key themes:• The Population Rectangle: How modern sanitation, pharmacology, and nutrition have shifted the human population from a "pyramid" of many young and few old to a "rectangle" where the majority of people survive to advanced age.
• Primary vs. Secondary Aging: Understanding the difference between universal biological wear and tear (primary) and the damage caused by lifestyle choices and environmental exposures (secondary).

Maximizing Your Health Span
In this deep-dive exploration of gerontology and demographic history, we unpack the critical difference between life expectancy (a statistical average) and maximum lifespan (the biological limit of the human machine). -
2/
In this episode, we compare ancient perspectives on aging with the unprecedented global demographic shifts happening today. Using Nancy A. Pachana’s Aging: A Very Short Introduction as our guide, we will dissect how the hardware for a long life has always been in our DNA and how the lifestyle choices you make today directly dictate your long-term health span. -

A quotation from Marcus Aurelius
Wherein, then, is your grievance? You are not ejected from the city [life] by any unjust judge or tyrant, but by the selfsame Nature which brought you into it; just as when an actor is dismissed by the manager who engaged him.
“But I have played no more than three of the five acts.” Just so; in your drama of life, three acts are all the play. Its point of completeness is determined by him who formerly sanctioned your creation, and today sanctions your dissolution. Neither of those decisions lay within yourself.
Pass on your way, then, with a smiling face, under the smile of him who bids you go.
[τί οὖν δεινόν, εἰ τῆς πόλεως ἀποπέμπει σε οὐ τύραννος οὐδὲ δικαστὴς ἄδικος, ἀλλ̓ ἡ φύσις ἡ εἰσαγαγοῦσα, οἷον εἰ κωμῳδὸν ἀπολύοι τῆς σκηνῆς ὁ παραλαβὼν στρατηγός;—ἀλλ̓ οὐκ εἶπον τὰ πέντε μέρη, ἀλλὰ τὰ τρία.—καλῶς εἶπας: ἐν μέντοι τῷ βίῳ τὰ τρία ὅλον τὸ δρᾶμά ἐστι. τὸ γὰρ τέλειον ἐκεῖνος ὁρίζει ὁ τότε μὲν τῆς συγκρίσεως. νῦν δὲ τῆς διαλύσεως αἴτιος: σὺ δὲ ἀναίτιος ἀμφοτέρων. ἄπιθι οὖν ἵλεως: καὶ γὰρ ὁ ἀπολύων ἵλεως.]Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher
Meditations [To Himself; Τὰ εἰς ἑαυτόν], Book 12, ch. 36 (12.36) (AD 161-180) [tr. Staniforth (1964)]More about (and translations of) this quote: wist.info/marcus-aureleus/8281…

A quotation from Marcus Aurelius
O man! as a citizen thou hast lived, and conversed in this great city the world. Whether just for so many years, or no, what is it unto thee? Thou hast lived (thou mayest be sure) as long as the laws and orders of the city required; which may be the common comfort of all.
[Ἄνθρωπε, ἐπολιτεύσω ἐν τῇ μεγάλῃ ταύτῃ πόλει: τί σοι διαφέρει, εἰ πέντε ἔτεσιν ἢ τρισί; τὸ γὰρ κατὰ τοὺς νόμους ἴσον ἑκάστῳ.]Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher

A quotation from Kurt Vonnegut
The most important thing I learned on Tralfamadore was that when a person dies he only appears to die. He is still very much alive in the past, so it is very silly for people to cry at his funeral. All moments, past, present and future, always have existed, always will exist. The Tralfamadorians can look at all the different moments just that way we can look at a stretch of the Rocky Mountains, for instance. They can see how permanent all the moments are, and they can look at any moment that interests them. It is just an illusion we have here on Earth that one moment follows another one, like beads on a string, and that once a moment is gone it is gone forever.
Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. (1922-2007) American novelist, journalist
Slaughterhouse-Five, ch. 2 (1969)More about this quote: wist.info/vonnegut-kurt-jr/557…

The longer I live, the more urgent it seems to me to endure and transcribe the whole dictation of existence up to its end, for it might just be the case that only the very last sentence contains that small and possibly inconspicuous word through which everything we had struggled to learn and everything we had failed to understand will be transformed suddenly into magnificent sense.
