I feel like people in this thread would also enjoy the excellent podcast How it Began, which is an optimistic take on the history of technologies by Dr. Brad Harris > The overall theme? Celebration! We are privileged to be descended from men and women who dared to dream big and even die for the cause of progress. Their work is unfinished, and some parts of modernity are even worse than before. But most are better, much better. And we have more tools than ever to fix what’s still broken. How It Began celebrates that progress, and presents a history of the modern world to help inspire its long lasting continuation. Link: https://howitbegan.com/ https://howitbegan.com/
