Wondrous times, less wonder.
#13
RE: Wondrous times, less wonder.
It's all perspective.

You can choose to look at every advancement as a new leap, as a new achievement on the spectrum of scientific accomplishment.

You can choose to look at the simplest advancements as the first building blocks toward a great future.

Or you can choose to look at advancements as nothing too surprising, which you could do at any point in history, at any time. It's pointless.


I think a pretty amazing field right now is computing, because quantum computers are starting to be developed and are somehow already developed, yet we still hardly know how they work, and very few people even are able to understand the technology enough to create it. There are quantum computers located in a university[unsure, think it's in florida]and there is also one in NASA. Two.
Which is better:
To die with ignorance, or to live with intelligence?

Truth doesn't accommodate to personal opinions.
The choice is yours.

The more questions you ask, the more you realize that disagreement is inevitable, and communication of this disagreement, irrelevant.
