i think in 100 years people will look back at 2022 and be even more astonished at how bad our quality of life was than we are looking back at people who lived 1000 years ago

I am astonished at the mid '50s and my memories reach that far back.

You are optimistic, some believe in Skynet & agent Smith having kids together
Replying to @sama
Pretty optimistic. A lot of people today look at the 80's with envy. That was 40 years ago...
Replying to @sama
What does that have to do with us.
Replying to @sama
Guess it just depends on whether we solve aging and illness.

In 100 years with global warming at 5 degrees? Or you think it just won't happen by magic? Which people?
Replying to @sama
Complication : nobody alive today has first-hand knowledge of things 1000 years ago. If 2122 is indeed a utopia then there will be folks with personal memories of 2022 - maybe even a lot of them.

100000%. Between processed food and thoughts, it’s astonishing

I’m 44 and quality of life has increased so much over that period it’s hard to fathom.
