IS THE 1555 LES PROPHETES BOOK STILL ALIVE?
Let's select Just a few that might be of relevance in our current age. The sixteenth-century Mars mission. Michelle de Nostradamus was a French astrologer who became well-known during his time because, you guessed it, many of his predictions came true. Although it's still unclear if his predictions from long ago were accurate or the result of pure coincidence, people at the time accepted him and he became well-known for them until the day of his death. Nostradamus also left behind a book called Les Prophetes in which he made 942 predictions, many of which came true. For example, he foresaw both the moon landing mission of Apollo 11 and the ruthless reign of Adolf Hitler and even the COVID-19 pandemic. All these he talked about in the book which he published in 1555.

Vertical vs. Horizontal Cities: Which is better?
It's almost ten, and you have to get across the tunnel that goes to your building, so move quickly. Welcome to the vertical world, where a huge gate closes behind you. A city is a place where people grow their own food and driving is prohibited. Downstairs, your boss resides as well. What appears to be a futuristic scene is actually an old utopia from the late 1960s, when building a city with your neighbors seemed like a great way to deal with the issue of overcrowding. Let's examine the facts now. Up until 2011, an additional 3.1 billion people are predicted to live on Earth, but where will they all reside? Space cities are still a ways off. Thus, the goal is to ascend to the sky using massive skyscrapers. Hosting self-sustaining cities around the world are a fascinating way to solve issues like housing and sustainability one floor at a time. These tower- or pyramid-shaped buildings contain all the necessities for a city, meaning you never have to leave schools. Forget about cars and traffic jams—markets and post offices are just elevators—with offices located on lower floors. By the end of the year, residents will have an extra 55 minutes a day to spend with family, which translates into an additional 400 Netflix episodes for binge watching, and they will have saved over $500 by forgoing morning coffee at [Music]. High-quality agriculture facilities are essential for every archaeology as people consume food. Starbucks, have a peek at those incredible vertical gardens. Minority Report: Before you pack your bags, living in archaeology seems like a good idea. These high-tech buildings would be constructed in total isolation, surrounded by only raw nature, organic food, and no traffic jams. You would also wake up to a wide, breath-taking view of nature outside your apartment.

The Internet Has Died
Dead Internet Theory - a wild idea that suggests the internet we know changed dramatically in 2016 or 2017. This might sound crazy, but it's quite fascinating. According to this theory, bots have taken over the internet in recent years, and most of what we see online, like forum posts, Instagram accounts, and news headlines, is fake. These bots are like super-smart computers that aim to make us buy things and believe certain ideas. Even the so-called 'influencers' are often not real; they're either fake or paid to say things by big businesses or government groups.
