RE: Humans And Evolution - The Untold History Of Transportation
Wow, you really put a lot of research into this. Some interesting facts you pulled together. You made me think of this song:
Not so much the music as the video. Every time I see it I just watch the people and think about history. All of those long since dead people are now frozen in time. And they're a quirky anachronism to us now paired with our modern music for the entertainment value, but those were real people going about their everyday lives at the time.
Doesn't that make you feel so small? We all exist for just a blip in time. Like little bitty ants going about our lives. It's so amazing what we've accomplished collectively as societies, and even moreso what some of us have accomplished individually.
I tend to think more on the side that's it's not all been so good, but I can't help but acknowledge that if much of our innovation weren't so then I wouldn't even be here right now, at this age, and surely not typing on this digital medium. It is truly something to marvel at.
This is a fun series by you. I'll look forward to reading more.
It's nice you enjoyed the article, and I so appreciate you stopping by. I remember vividly of some of my childhood experience, I can remember a bit of life then, and it's so amazing how things have changed just these years for example just like you pointed out with respect to digital device, you can imagine what was used then and compare to now.
It's amazing how the human brain works with respect to creating something better, many have contributed over the years but more still need to be done.
I think it's quite a series too, so do well to watch out for the next :)
I know. That's so true. Idk your age, but there were no computers when I was born, all except for government ones that took up the size of a whole room and aptly named, like "Colossus". To think that now we have things like a Raspberry Pi computer that with every generation gets smaller and smaller. That's just amazing to think about. Something that used to fill a room and had to be operated manually, now can fit in the palm of a hand and works without us doing a thing more complicated than plugging it in.
I love watching things like this to learn about the past:
There were some real pioneers who came before our time.
I will be watching out for the next. Guaranteed! :)
