Do you think Humans have come far in regards with Technology in the last 100 hundred years?
With all our TVs, Computers, Laptops, iPhones etc etc
and lets not get started on Human Anatomy, Medicine, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Engineering etc…
Uh, yeah. I'd say it's pretty obvious that the last century changed the world more than just a tiny bit.
.
.
We have gone far for ourselves, but there's no other intellectual species similar to us to compare technological advances; therefore there's no way to determine if we have come far in general terms
We seem to be becoming less intelligent. Average IQ scores ore decreasing.
Ask me 10 years from now. If i'm still alive. By then Trump will have either been impeached or we will be back in the dark ages.
"… The larger the human population grows, the average human I. Q seems to drop. Now how is this possible? Studies show that since the nineteen fifties the average I. Q has dropped a total of three points. This is alarming and confusing at the same time. How with all of our medical and technological advancements is this occurring? Many charts that I have found showed that the average I. Q was at its peak in nineteen fifty that was sixty years ago. Many blame this fall of global I. Q on the fall of the Soviet Union. In the soviet unions control of Eastern Europe, their children were forced to be schooled in far more advanced subjects than modern students. It was a race to attempt to beat the west technologically. In turn the west also made their students study harder and learn more thusly making the average I. Q greatly superior than it had been for many years. Without this compaction the schooling that was installed in a time of panic was called off. Recent studies show that the is now Falling at a rapid rate.
The average I.Q. For 2011 is calculated to be 88.54 this is the lowest I.Q. Rate in years. Even though we have much more social media and technology. How is this possible? Well it is shown that rising birth rates, along with a constant population rise in much of the world. I.Q. Is the intelligence quotient used to measure the intelligence of every human on the planet. I.Q. Is used to measure your intelligence based on age, gender, and ethnicity. I.Q. Testes are administered using a series of tests that scientism have determined over the years to be an accurate measure of how much intelligence the human brain actually holds. Most people in modern day society have an average I.Q. Ranging between 89 and 100. If you have an I.Q. That falls out of that range you are believed to be below average intelligence. There are four basic I.Q. Testes; these testes test the four lobes of your brain. The first test tests the back of the frontal lobe of the brain, the second tests the rear lobe, the third tests the occipluar and the fourth tests the rest of the frontal lobe. The frontal lobe is believed to be the part of the brain that is in charge of learning. So people who administer I.Q. Tests test those areas, first and last. The rest of the sectors of the brain are meant to test how your brain processes information and how well it comprehends it. Another variable of these test are how old your are, children who take I.Q. Tests are known to be better off than people who haven't taken I.Q tests.
Studies conducted in recent years have shown a direct correlation between population growth and the decline in the standard I. Q of countries such as, New Zeland, Australia, Brazil and Mexico. For every 10 years a .30 I.Q drop occurs so it is predicted by the year 2050 the average I. Q will have fallen to 89.32 from 91.64. How is this possible? Science points to the process of natural selection. It shows that people will flock to people of similar I. Q levels. So thusly people with lower I. Q levels would mate with people of similar standings, thus producing offspring of similar learned standards. A similar comparison of this would be the AIDS outbreak in Nigeria. The wealthier more educated people were less likely to contract this despise because their I.Q helped them avoid such activates that would allow the deseise to become contracted.
In the search to discover how I. Q and population growth are connected it may also help to look at the average income of people who have lower I.Qs. Since people with lower I. Qs tend to search for others like them does it not make since that they would also look for people of similar economic standing? This is one theory to how the drop in I.Q and poverty rates is directly connected… "

Yes, this is a biased answered. I'm cherry picking my data and i'm making no attempt to be objective or scientific, because i see so many blatant displays ignorance on YA every day, especially on weekends.
We've really progressed quite far over the last 10 millennia.
The last 100 years has seen an unprecedented explosion of technology. This will almost certainly have to stop at some point (in the next few hundred years) either as we self destruct, run out of resources, or come to some limit of what it is practical make (or a combination).
It is sobering to think that almost all the technology we have was invented over the last few centuries. Last century was particularly productive of what we might call "advanced" technology.
Despite popular opinion that technology just goes on advancing indefinitely, the concentration of technology in the last century or so out of the tens of thousands of years that humans have been in existence demonstrates remarkably well that the advancement of last century was an anomaly rather than a trend. Hence rather than indefinite advance, we should expect that the anomaly will end and no more technology will be forthcoming. The real challenge is to hang on to our gains, and it is not clear that we can do even that.
So yes, human technology has made remarkable advances in the last hundred years. Just don't see this as a trend, and don't expect the advances to keep on coming.
- You think I could buy a iPhone 5 if i work what you guys think? You guys think that if i work at McDonald or any store i can afford to buy the iPhone 5? And pay every month
- Would you buy a new iPhone every 2 years or 4 years? Why? If your not a fan of iPhones don't answer please. And would you buy the S models if you don't already own an iPhone?
- Why did I get an activation lock in regards to 'Find my iPhone'? So yesterday I was in the middle of texting my friend until my phone switched off then like 5 seconds later the apple logo came up. Then I was told to enter my Apple ID and password etc and something to with find my iPhone. I can't remember the exact words but it also said "it may take a few minutes to activate your phone". I bought my iPhone from a second hand shop in 2014. So what did this mean?
- What would happen if i went back in time 25 years with a bunch of todays technology? Like if i went back with an iphone, a playstation 4, swag, a skrillex cd, and a laptop. Would i be rich? Would i be a god
