1) The world changes, progress or no. Tomorrow is different than today. Someday, something will change and that tomorrow is the one that's going to make your steady state suck. And that will be just the first of many changing tomorrows. The harder you cling onto your desire to keep yourself and everybody else's world trapped in your comfort zone, the harder it will be to catch up to the accumulated tomorrows that have occurred.
2) Your life, whatever it is and I mean this without intention of offense, stinks for me. I don't want it, and the world that makes your life comfortable makes mine unbearable or at least unbelievably irritating in some aspect somewhere. For you to have your comfortable life forever means mine has to suck somewhere and sometime.
HN is about building things and changing the future...and if you're really clever, getting paid for it. If those things aren't of interest to you, and the world you've built around yourself is just fine and you can live in that world till you die, more power to you, but you're probably in the wrong discussion forum.
(you joined HN about two months ago, telling me that your assertion that your world is happy and completely fulfilled is obviously and trivially false, or you wouldn't have bothered joining up in the first place.
Something about your life is unfulfilled, social interaction, business, technical know-how, whatever, and you sought an improvement in your life out.
The difference between what you keep saying in your comments and what you actually do is probably going to mean some hard self-evaluation before you can resolve that fundamental cognitive dissonance and be a healthy minded contributor to a place like HN.)
