The publication that I bring today to share is based on a sentence based on technology that I recently read and left me reflecting on it, is the following:

"Technology made large populations possible; now large populations make technology indispensable. " Joseph Krutch (Writer)

I will share with you some personal reflections regarding technology and society, which in my mind arose from this sentence. Stay with me until the end, I would like to know your opinion about it.

"Technology made large populations possible;"

This first part, let's see, if we go back to some millions of years ago, we would understand this phrase from the primitive, those times when our body was covered with hair and we looked more like a primate than a human being today. We were nomads, wandering from one place to another while we were looking for food.

But everything began to change when natural technology began to be used to facilitate some basic processes such as feeding and heating, and this was the use of fire. Of course, this is not an invention of man, our ancestors realized that the use of this element(fire) could help them to cook food and also provide them with some security in the face of inclement weather. So little by little they organized themselves into a society, that group of people who communed in a specific place and who were going to need fire to make their lives easier, and it would be like that forever, or at least it still is.

With time, certain conditions were created so that instead of going out to hunt, they could keep the animals locked up and even raise them, using fences for this, a very basic technology that they later discovered could work for them to have food on hand.So, why be a nomad when I have everything close by? don't you think?

Time evolved, in the same way populations were created that made this rudimentary technology become more than necessary. Later the wheel was created, another great advance in technology, still used, and that it is unimaginable a world if this invention, with all its different forms. This allowed them to move further, to move heavier objects, with fewer people, and thus to build large villages. It was not necessary to leave that place of comfort, unless something from another space was needed, as is the case today.

"Now large populations make technology indispensable."

With this second part of the sentence, I conclude. Is it true?
I particularly think so, can you imagine a world without the Internet? difficult, right?, although the Internet has allowed a more globalized world, each country gives a certain use to it, but our society is increasingly dependent on technology, is a reality. We have made it indispensable, without a doubt.

The same thing happened in the industrial revolution, with the establishment of mass production companies of practically everything, people were abandoning the fields, until it becomes more and more necessary and indispensable the facility that production technology gives us... at least that is my appreciation.

Do you have anything to say about this?

I would like to know if you share my point of view, or if it is totally different, I would also respect it.
