As our evolution slows
Well that’s bullshit.
But yes, adapting to new things is usually a generational thing. And tech. progress accelerated past that about two generations ago. This already creates issues with parents and teachers not being able to teach the children proper media competence (because basic IT knowledge never penetrated to them either). Which leads to the misinformation crysis.

anti vaccine folks are trying to fix that! They are the golden path!

And capitalism is making many wait to have kids until they’re older!
I don’t know that it would matter much as long as there is sexual selection rather than natural selection. For instance, if a random cross section of a population dies, then there’s no evolution because there’s no reason that the survivors lived to pass on genetics. Is that not correct?

Humans still select for more gracility on average. And social selection is part of evolution too (and not only humans do it).
the state of being gracefully slender.
Im Learning a new word today but I still dont understand after looking up. Could you clarify context?
Well, human skeletal gracility compared to other hominides. There was a study years ago, that human still sexually selects for even more gracility (on average), while already getting to the point, where the bones get too thin to properly support their other roles in metabolism.
Ah, and about the “evolution slowing” part being bullshit; maybe 10 years ago already? Other studies that disproved the myth.
Ok I see how this word applies now.
Cheers!
Mmmmmnnot sure it’s the evolution that’s at fault for this discrepancy.
That’s why imo technology will never solve our problems, only social engineering will.
Once the beep boops are developing technology they will likely limit distribution because humans can only handle so much technology improvements so fast. I mean its frustrating buying something and next month its obsolete.

I disagree, technology will solve all our problems by elimination.
That’s not solving them, that’s falling victim to them.
If people want to be the victims of technology, be killed by the machine, who can stop them ?
Holistically, tech makes everything worse.
Simplicity is the tool we never use.
Technology only exasperates the faukts in human nature that were always here.
How do you evolve to accommodate shareholder profit?
This is exactly why colonizing Mars would be a nonstarter. We’re barely coping on our planet of origin. Although many of the problems listed are side effects of unmanaged capitalism rather than society as a whole.
Majority of humans may not have the genetic adaptations necessary however there are some already who can already tolerate much higher temperatures while consuming much less water so there may be some humans that won’t be as adversely affected by the warming planet. It may depend on whether or not they are able to maintain food sources.
