    1. One of my inquiries was for anecdotes regarding mistakes made between the twins by their near relatives. The replies are numerous, but not very varied in character. When the twins are children, they are usually distinguished by ribbons tied round the wrist or neck; nevertheless the one is sometimes fed, physicked, and whipped by mistake for the other, and the description of these little domestic catastrophes was usually given by the mother, in a phraseology that is some- [p. 158] what touching by reason of its seriousness.

    2. "There is a large literature relating to twins in their purely surgical and physiological aspect. The reader interested in this should consult Die Lehre von den Zwillingen, von L. Kleinwächter, Prag. 1871. It is full of references, but it is also unhappily disfigured by a number of numerical misprints, especially in page 26. I have not found any book that treats of twins from my present point of view."

    1. there's a there's an embryo that's going to develop into a human individual well what you can do is you can take a little needle and and and make some scratches in that blastoderm and for about four or five hours before they heal up again 00:23:12 every island is going to basically decide that it's on its own and is going to start making an embryo when they do heal you have conjoin twins triplets whatever

        • where do I begin and the outside world begin?
        • these experiments raise some very fundamental questions about who the individual being is. If all the cells of the blastdoderm normally form a single individual, but by a simple mechanical process as a scratch can restart the "individual" program and create more embryos (future individual human beings), then where would the boundary be between self and other (conjoined twins)?
      • question

      • adjacency between
        • multiple beings can simultaneously emerge from the same cellular soup (blastoderm) - twins, triplets, etc
        • phenomena of synchronization between twins
      • adjacency question

        • is there a relatoinship between these two facts?

        • Could this

    1. there's a twin study they took identical twins genetically identical in denmark and they said okay let's look at them through their life and there were massive differences in 00:08:46 how they looked and how they how long they lived and when they went back to see what the causes were they could figure out first of all that 80 of their lifespan was determined by how they lived not their genetics 00:08:58 you mean the way they felt about themselves the people they hung out with their environment the activities they took on or what do you mean well mostly their lifestyle what they ate did they smoke did they drink did they exercise those did they sleep well all that stuff right 00:09:11 and those that did all the good things the same genetics twins born the same day one could live 10 years longer than the other

      !- Aging : Denmark twins study - 80 % of their lifespan was determined by lifestyle choices - twins who made better decisions lived on average 10 years longer

    1. Digital Twin Technology is one among the top 10 strategic technology trends named by Gartner Inc. in 2017. Digital Twin concept represents the convergence of the physical and the virtual world where every industrial product will get a dynamic digital representation. Throughout the product development life cycle, right from the design phase to the deployment phase, organizations can have a complete digital foot print of their products. These ‘connected digital things’ generate data in real time, and this helps businesses in better analyze and predict the problems in advance or give early warnings,

      This technology is very useful in todays world
