> Evolutionary pressure has adapted us to an outdoor agrarian life.
If that was the case, you would still be poking some rock with a stick covered in mud growing some wheat instead of typing on a keyboard, talking to somebody over the internet.
Evolutionary pressure adapted you to have a malleable brain capable of whatever is needed at the moment.

Sure it is. Because we already fit into modern cities just fine. They're designed to our nature, by definition, since we designed them.

- JoeAltmaier 11y agoThat's ridiculous. We're designed for cities, because we built cities? Ignoring chronic depression, the homeless, bad nutrition, epidemic diseases? Our brain is good at adapting, sure, but not endlessly. Depression, drug use, crime all point to maladaptation.
