EFFICIENCY=DEATH

[mesobe]

yup. and maximizing our life experience is going to be the death of us all. Making our lives more worry-free and convenient is like painting ourselves in a courner.

for example, one can say that computers are the number one tool that has made our lives easier. In fact most of us rely on them for our survival everyday. To take it further, computers rely on electricity... which is just a bunch of vibrating electrons. Humans rely on little invisible balls that move around... and without them, we are fucked. Total chaos would ensue.

I think the scales have flipped. the more convenience we create for ourselves, the more we are fucked if all those little balls stop moving around.

Humans have this crazy ability of creating something out of nothing. Either inventing things in our heads (like religion) or the ability of taking a mountain and turning it into metal objects and structures etc.
