RE: The Story of My Life so Far - Part 44: First year in Lorient on the Frigate Tourville
You met your first wife, right? :)
It is incredible to think of all the tech advancements in the last 50 years. Feels like we so undeveloped back in the 70ies. And I'm still not sure it is all good the tech brought along...
Yes, your guess is correct.
Scientific and technical progress is continuous, even if it has been accelerating in the last fifty years.
In hindsight, we sometimes wonder how we could have lived without such and such tech, but at the time we did not know that it could exist, so we did not feel "undeveloped".
Be sure that my grandchildren and your children (if you have some) will have the same feeling in thirty or forty years, when they will be surrounded by an army of robots.
Yes, agree. I'm pretty sure about that. I think the progress came too fast for humans to adapt, thus downsides. And it is accelerating even more...
