Sameness vs. Equality

The meaning of sameness is people are the same physically. They can have the same face and same bodies. All people have the same job, the same work time, the same family. Sameness is close to impossible as if every one was same, then there would be no governing bady and as every one would have to do the same job, there could be no society But equality means that every one is considered equal in society. There is no discrimination and every one is treated in the same way. Equality is achievable even though it would be very hard unlike sameness which is impossible.

Child-Adult-Old

A child is an adult when he/she starts contributing to his society instead of depending on it. And by giving back to the society it does not mean just do reachout or join in a environment club in your school. That’s part of it but when you are a adult you do your duty independently. A child becomes an adult generally after graduating from university and starts doing a job. An adult means doing your duty in society properly and sincerely. When an adult becomes mental and physical aged and can no longer perform his/her duty they are considered old and aged. Old people are generally respected because they have done their duty.

Tech cartoon

The main visual elements are the kid and the parents .This picture is about the breach of technology usage between two generations. The older generation is not very tech orientated and prefers talking. While the younger kid represents the younger generation and prefers bogging over talking. This artist is a person who does not like technology very much, as he shows that people prefer to type over talk. He is showing that technology is stopping people from talking and families from interacting. This cartoon is ironic as generally technology has helped people to communicate but here it stop communication. The artist could have showed the kid with more technological devices like a laptops and cellphones.

Vonnegut; Wrong or Right?

Vonnegut is wrong in his saying . I do see his reasoning in the nuclear submarine, but the computer example is clearly wrong. I believe computers help the becoming. Its allowing us to do things we have never done before. Now we can do to new planets and extreme locations using computers. Using computer we are able to see the universe out there. We have made so many new discoveries with the help of computers. Back on earth we have computer to make work easier, to make construction more accurate. We can make artificial intelligence using computers and uncover Isaac Asimov’s positron brains. We can do amazing things using computer. They are clearly the invention of this century. As for the submarine, all though it destructive power is menacing, it is our defense. And weapons like the submarine are necessary to protect. And they are defensive not offensive weapons. And inventions like the computer, do not stop to becoming, but encourage the becoming.

Technology

Technology is anything that makes life easier, better, and safer.I feel satisfied at the usage of technology in our school. In our middle school we have 1 computer or laptop for every 2 people. Also our school has a lot of new programs installed to help make work easier. Besides computers they also have new water processing and energy producing plants.
