Until the last day of his life, he provided me with his support, sending me writings, letters, alerts, and confidential criticisms. José Vicente was a great window for Venezuelans to understand the thinking and project of Commander Chávez. A leader who, since the 1960s, raised the banners of the left, the revolution, and the homeland. His legacy marked a historic era in social communication. Honour and eternal glory to the memory of José Vicente Rangel!
Seven provincial-level regions, including Jilin, Jiangsu and Shandong, already provide full coverage for in-hospital childbirth medical expenses within the policy scopes.
Officials noted that the commitment applies to standard medical services. If expecting parents choose premium-priced hospitals, or opt for medications or materials not included in the basic insurance catalogue, those additional expenses will not be reimbursed.
The National Healthcare Security Administration is also planning to expand maternity insurance eligibility to include flexible workers, migrant workers, and people in new forms of employment, among other measures designed to encourage childbirth.
China’s maternity insurance now covers approximately 255 million people.
Indeed, the brain is a later extension of the spine. Prior to the development of cogent human thought – the spinal reflex-arc kept humanity alive as much as possible through basic cause and effect conditioning. Later, cogent thought was layered over this process – giving the false impression that the brain (and will-power) is responsible. Reflex-arcs are so quick – there is no time for “thinking”. The reality is that the finger is pierced and moved away from danger PRIOR to any pain being felt. The brain, with all its moralising, would have you believe that logic, reason caused the reflex-arc and its entire existence was to avoid unnecessary pain. I suspect that when this reflex-arc was first laid-down millions of years ago – the then pre-human life-form could not experience the level of pain humans do today – so the avoidance of “pain” cannot be the motivation for the avoidance of danger.
“For example, if a patient sees a flame and wants to move away, that ‘wanting’ signal is captured by the chip and converted into a command to move the hand,” he added.
While the foundational BCI research began decades ago in the West, Chinese teams are now rapidly advancing the technology.
In July 2025, Nature reported that “China is rising swiftly in the field of brain-computer interfaces”, with devices that even outperform Elon Musk’s Neuralink project in certain aspects.
“Although China does not have as long a research history in the field as the United States, development is extremely fast,” Qu said, noting China’s advantages in medical infrastructure and its population scale for testing.
Patients’ hopes lifted
The BCI device developed by Shanghai StairMed is particularly remarkable. With 64 electrodes — each only 1 percent of the width of a human hair — it is one of the smallest and least invasive implantable BCIs in the world. The first male recipient has already used it to play chess and video racing games.
The problem with ideation and science is that the concrete nature of the external world is often ignored in the pursuit of pushing the permitted bourgeois envelope ever further toward ethereal theories that are non-threatening to the capitalist status quo – as bourgeois science can never be used to discredit capitalism in anyway. having said that, I think the distances are so vast between solar systems and different parts of the universe-multiverse – that humanity will not be able to traverse these distances in the traditional sense. A single light year still represents the distance light travels in one-year (5.88 trillion miles).
He was a great musician and poet who managed to channel an entire youth that cried out: “Peace, peace, peace!”. His spirituality and his gift of being a good person maintain an immense and powerful relevance.
His legacy is an anthem for all eras and generations. We have the right to imagine a world of peace and happiness for everyone. The strength of his thought motivates us to continue fighting with dignity.
Let’s look for the lyrics of “Imagine”! In them lies the dream of a world without divisions or wars, a world that is possible. Long live the eternal memory of John Lennon!
