Fats also give us a feeling of satiation and they balance our blood sugar as well. Virgin, unrefined coconut oil is ideal for its antimicrobial and antiviral properties. It’s also a medium-chain fatty acid, which means that it is absorbed in the small intestine and doesn’t require bile salts to be released to break them down. Thus, MCFAs provide quick energy and facilitate the body’s transition to using fats for energy. Organic butter, nuts, avocados, raw whole milk, seeds, animal fats, and coconut oil are all good quality fats.

In the early 1940’s, the mathematician John von Neumann posed the following question: How intricate must something be to self-replicate? He hoped to design a mathematical program that would theoretically make a copy of itself on its own, an ability that some living organisms had already developed. Von Neumann wanted to create something that was more thoughtful and could genuinely mimic physical life. The term cellular autonomy was eventually coined to describe Von Neumann’s model. According to Math World, an online mathematical database, “a cellular automaton is a collection of ”˜colored’ cells on a grid of specified shape that evolves through a number of discrete time steps according to a set of rules based on the states of neighboring cells.”

With the development of such research initiatives as the evolution of digital organisms, computer immune systems, artificial protocells, evolutionary robotics, and swarm systems, Johnston argues, machinic life has achieved a complexity and autonomy worthy of study in its own right.

Yet it can work as important supplement to the various post-Fordist theories of contemporary remodulations of techniques of life that extend life from the human to the realm of machines (or the Agambenian discourse surrounding of life beyond meaning) - and Johnston offers here a very detailed image of how this diagrammatic distribution of discourses and machines happens.

A private individual could (presumably illegally) collect an enormous amount of information on ”˜target a’, but if they collected it and then never found a route to dissemination it is a powerless collection (think wikileaks without a publish button), but it is precisely the next steps that government agencies (and some private intelligencers), and who they feed into, that makes their intelligence effort more important, more worthy of note.
