I agree with this statement. Especially if you look over a few thousand year timeline. Of course, the rate of technology has accelerated but also some of the earlier changes have been normalized though we still reel from them. Even the sense of community has been completely redefined (or minimized) by technology today, or the concept of society being focus on nuclear family only. Some are a direct result of technology, but some changes, like the concept of leisure time, come indirectly as we restructure our lives around this technology (capitalism and the industrial revolution).

Compare this to where we were 2,000 years ago or 10,000 years ago.
