We also didn't evolve for worldwide, nearly instantaneous communication; or even monogamy for that matter. Yet people are adapting.

  Adapting sure. As effective though? No. That's my point, it's not as effective. > worldwide, nearly instantaneous communication This isn't nearly as good of a point as you think it is. > or even monogamy Speak for yourself.

    > > worldwide, nearly instantaneous communication > This isn't nearly as good of a point as you think it is. Why not? If we evolved to relate to a small tribe and now are exposed to huge numbers of people then I'd say there's proof humans can and are adapting.

      What does adapting mean to you? Surviving? Yes. Thriving? Epidemics of loneliness, mental health declines in young people exposed to technology and social media since birth and online echo chambers allowing violent conspiracy theorists to hype each other up to commit crimes. Doesn't seem like thriving to me. And you didn't respond to my point about being as effective. This is all relative to baseline in office working.
