Do you mean technology changes, life for tech workers, or life for the average American (or non-American)? In tech, the growth of remote work is big: I just changed jobs, and I live in South Bend IN. In 2019, finding work would have been really hard—I'd estimate fewer than 10% of dev roles were remote at the time (and roughly 0% in South Bend). Today, I feel like we're probably over 50% of all dev jobs fully remote. That's a huge change. Tech-wise, LLMs are significant, but otherwise, yeah, not a lot. For normal people...again, LLMs. Unemployment is down a fair bit, and real wages are up, especially for the bottom quartile, so those are both good news. It's a marginal change, of course, but a big deal for a lot of people. Dobbs is a big deal for many, many people. But compare 2014->2019: what big changes were there? Everyone switching to React? Trump? 2009->2014 does stand out a bit for smartphones going from relatively rare to ubiquitous, and tech-wise we had big growth in cloud hosting.
