What we’re about
We're based in Pennsylvania. We've added a few people from outside this area. At this time we're mostly meeting online, but a few of us occasionally meet in person in the York area. At our Meetups you can participate either by webcam or telephone call.
This discussion group is about the relation between society and technology. That includes such issues as: the relation between technology and human progress; technology and economic development; energy; technology and ethics; history of technology; medical technologies; robotics; manufacturing; space exploration; philosophy of technology; etc.
.
At the beginning of each discussion, people can suggest possible topics, and then we can pick one or two topics to discuss that day - in any case we can go into lots of tangents. We can also consider choosing a topic ahead of time for the next Meetup.
Additionally, some of us also participate in another Meetup group related to aspects of society, technology, and social ideas. "Science & Sci-Fi - online": https://4142298.xyz/sci-and-sci-fi/
