technological progress that increases the efficiency with which a resource is used tends to increase (rather than decrease) the rate of consumption of that resource
William Stanley Jevons, 1865
What if that resource is time, of which we have a finite amount? Time does not really exist on its own, but is really an abstraction of each person’s life.

I find that holds true for time as well. Every time we discover some technology that makes our use of time more efficient — labour-saving devices, for example, or computers — we find more things to do to consume our time, to the point where we feel we have even less of it than we had before.
