Why are there many technologies are there in the us?
Everything that humans use is part of a technology. Some of these technologies even predate modern humans. No modern human has ever lived that did not make use of hundreds of different technologies every day of their lives. The total number of technologies (including both actively in use and those considered obsolete) is so large as to be impractical to count and has been growing since before the existence of modern humans. Since the industrial revolution in the early 1800s the rate of growth of the number of new technologies has become exponential with the result that now within a period as small as one to two decades more new technologies get created than all of the technologies modern humans had available to them before the industrial revolution.
