Women in Science

Women were excluded for a while in the field of science and technology. In the past they weren't given a chance to do anything besides cook and clean. It was a big deal for Emilie du Chatelet to be recognized for her great accomplishments in the 1700's. She started it all for the women in the field of science. Chatelet worked with Voltaire on energy. They worked in the field of physics and were able to establish is much further. They used velocity to define mass. and established the equation E=mv^2

Impact between Totalitarianism and Technology

Totalitarianism is a political system that has complete control over society, requiring everyone to obey the state completely.  Today, technology surrounds us everywhere.  People use phones and cameras and take pictures of everything.  Then, they upload them to social media and websites.  By doing this, it allows totalitarianism to bloom.  This gives government access to everything and lets them know what you are doing at all times.  Once the upload button is hit, the pictures or videos are on the web forever and can never be removed.  Even if they may seem to be deleted, they are still in the cloud.  "People are becoming more and more like machines." -Edward T. Hall

Totalitarianism and Technology

Technology surrounds us in our everyday lives everyday; we operate phones, computers, cameras exc. We post updates on our lives, who we hangout with, where we are and the fun we are having. How does things like this allow totalitarianism to bloom? Once you post online its there FOREVER, even after death. There is no privacy when using online databases. What we don't realize now a days is just how dangerous this is, people who may potentially want to harm you can easily find you, or those u don't want knowing your privacy can see everything. We have to learn to be smarter with how we use technology, sooner or later it will own us.

totalitarianism in technology

Totalitarianism is a political system that controls society and the public and private life of the people. Totalitarianism can be within the economy, education, family, media and church. Technology has taken over our lives. We plan our days around technology. We let it affect how we think, we feel, we portray ourselves, etc. Because we let this technology into so many aspects of our lives, we fall to totalitarianism, and feed into it. Most people don't realize that the government has the ability to control everything that is put on the internet. Surveillance is used on cameras, search histories and computers. 

Technologies that have Transformed Warfare

Advancements in technologies have changed the field of warfare for the better. Combat drones are used to deploy weapons from the air. Troops are able to control this from far away, which keeps them out of danger. Submarines are used in the navy to attack enemy ships. They are capable of attacking from under the water. They also carry missiles, aid in land attacks, and create blockades. Stealth aircrafts are more advanced then regular airplanes. They have the ability to hide themselves from the radar, radio, and spectrums, which will lead to a successful attack. Nuclear weapons are the most destructive and only used in the worst case possible. As time goes on, technology improves and becomes more and more precise.

Empathy in technology

     I feel that this meme describes the effects of technology perfectly. People are constantly trying to get their friends or loved ones to talk and their face is burried in their cell phone. Technology is taking the value of a real conversation and throwing it away. Now you can't hear someone's emotion because you're just reading a text. People do not feel like they have to sit people down to tell them big news, they just send them a text and that's that. It is truly sad that kids will all get together and still have the audacity to text each other. It is going to have an awful effect in the long run when they have to actual work with peers and communicate, and have a formal interview. These new norms that everyone follows is eventually going to come back and bit them in the butt!

The Effect of Technology on Relationships

You may not know it, but technology has a serious impact on relationships today.  Society has taken over our entire world and it is only going to get worse from here.  Advancements in technology are rapidly increasing daily.  Online dating sites have become more and more popular.  Due to the new technology, people have become lazy and simply "signed up" to find a partner for themselves.  What people do not understand is that some of these sites could be phony, and the people using the site could be fake, or even dangerous.  Technology is causing people to become more and more distant with personal contact and face to face communication.  Everyone feels safer behind a computer screen or a text message.  Back in the day, face to face confrontation was the only thing people did.  There was no question whether or not they should communicate in person.  They did not have the same technology as we did, and they simply knew it was better to talk in person.  Technology is making us humans become more distant from one another.  Also, everything on the internet or sent through a message via mobile device is permanent.  There is no erasing or getting rid of pictures and messages through the cloud.  Technology is extremely dangerous when coming to relationships.
