there is no resolution to that constraint. either you think everything will be business as usual, which is an insane thing to think given how the tech is progressing, or you think that nothing will be the same ever again, which (even if true) means you have insane millenarian beliefs

The distinction is velocity versus magnitude: shorter feedback loops make adoption look discontinuous even when each step is incremental. The unglamorous constraint is institutional adaptation. Which layer feels slowest?

i wonder about the advent of the printing press in this respect. it seems like it’s the only contemporary technology that’s at all comparable. maybe radio?
