>In 2004, astronomers noticed a gigantic region of empty space in maps created by NASA's Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) satellite, which scanned in exquisite detail the cosmic microwave background, or the leftover radiation from the Big Bang. The spot, which spans 1.8 billion light-years across,according to Vice, is strangely devoid of stars, gas, dust and even dark matter. While they have seen previous voids, researchers remain baffled as to how exactly one of this size and scale formed.
I saw the thread about meditation and it reminded me of a question I've been meaning to post regarding human psyche and neurobiology.
I've been considering creating a Tulpa. For those who don't know; a Tulpa is an artificial being you meditate into reality. For those of you that aren't from /X/ it means meditating yourself into a form of benign schizophrenia.
I've been considering the cost/benefit of attempting to create a separate mental entity from my own subjective self that I can interact with. The idea would be to visualize and attempt to create an entity with competencies I lack or possess to no significant degree. The aim would be to have a mental partner to cooperate with and seek counsel from.
Anyone who knows enough neurobiology to add interesting information to this?
It is literally the act of inflicting myself with multiple personality disorders. What are the pep's? What are the con's? Is it even worth the time and energy required to execute it in a way that minimises the risk of mental breakdown?

Is brain damage from sleep deprivation repairable? I've heard yes and no, but no definitive "right" answer.
Where does ingenuity come from? Do you need to be 160+ IQ savant to invent something worthy?

Insect-eating taboos aside, how feasible science-wise would it be to raise Asiatic rhinoceros beetles to sell the grubs as a protein source?
I read online that the beetles take 4-9 months to reach sexual maturity after they are laid as eggs. It seems like a reasonable turnaround time for a food product. The grubs are also rich in protein and have a creamy texture akin to a soft cheese when cooked.
Would it be possible to breed them for larger grub sizes or is that not a very variable trait in insects?
For reference, I live in SEA so coconut mulch, leaves, and husk fiber are all agricultural waste products that are easy to acquire. Additionally, rhino beetles are considered pests and are usually killed on sight.
>Why would you do this?
This might be a way to turn underutilized coconuts plant parts into cheap food for the poor and/or exotic food for tourists.
>But why beetles and not commonly bred insects like mealworms or locusts?
I believe that the rhino beetle grubs are big and fleshy enough to market as being equivalent to shellfish, unlike locusts or mealworms.
