It’s not an objection. Somebody said “[x thing] is impermanent” and the rebuttal you posted was “human life is also impermanent”

That’s not really a rebuttal to the notion that everything is impermanent, that supports it.

Anyway a wizened crone told me I’ll die on 11 September 2098, so let’s give me two weeks to gloat. Two weeks before that date. I will bet you that it happens on or before that date. Props for taking the over that no collisions of SHA-2 will happen before then

The danger of using quotation marks around things that aren't quotes is that you can wildly misstate what somebody said and readers are left to ponder if you just don't understand or if you're willfully trying to misrepresent them.

The reason a bet on this would need a date other than "ever" is because if one side of the bet can't be resolved until infinite time has passed, it just doesn't make any sense.
