Ask HN: As Covid-19, why is the world and human so fragile In a high-tech world?

1 pointsby ghosthamletabout 5 years ago
Maybe for most people the high-tech is not that important for their life,<p>Maybe it is time to slow down and think what are the most important for a basic happy life, how to more reasonable and appropriate use all these high-techs,<p>rather than continue to crazily speed economy and create more &#x27;high-tech&#x27;.

Maybe :P<p>But in all seriousness, maybe your view of the world and the people in it, is a bit skewed towards your current life?<p>Individual people can be fragile but as a species we are pretty resilient, even as far as the Wuhan Fever goes, some people get it and show no symptoms at all. So don&#x27;t despair too much and buy into all the doom and gloom on the news, the human race and our world will exist no matter what problems fate throws our way.<p>As far as it being time to slow down and think what is most important for you to have a happy life, that is probably a good idea. If you can find happiness in the simple things thats great, just don&#x27;t expect everyone else give up their widgets and tech too!<p>No matter how fast(or slow) technology or the economy changes there is still lots of happiness(and sadness) to be found if you look for it.
