What is Technology?

1.) What is technology?
In my opinion, technology is the science in upgrading or increasing growth in the industries. Technology may also be the upgrade of relationship between tools and crafts and human. By inventions and further studies, technology can jump to a whole new level of understanding.
2.) What the five most and five least used technology today?
Five most used:
-Computer.
-Cars.
-TV.
-Telephones or cellphones.
-Cooking.
Five least used:
-Space tools.
-Renewable resources.
3. How do you feel about the amount of and use of technology at AES?
The amount of technology used in AES is tremendous, considering it has some of the most advanced technology available. In my opinion, the technology used in AES can sometimes reach a point in which it becomes too much. The air conditioning system in school is a very good example of technology consumed too much in the school. Smart boards used to be in very little amount of classroom; as to today, they are in almost available in every single classroom. This shows the huge increase of technology in the school. Also, almost every single year, computers are being bought and renewed, resulting another jump in technology in the school. To answer the question, I would say the amount of technology used in AES is tremendous and unessential at points. It benefits us, but not the others.

Evaluating Kurt Vonnegut's Quote

“Do you know whahe damn fool computer.”
I do not agree with Kurt Vonnegut because I believe computers are the tools that 'help' you become. Like a key to open a lock, computers save time and help you accomplish. Instead of cutting a t a Luddite is? That’s a person who doesn’t like newfangled contraptions. Contraptions like nuclear submarines armed with Poseidon missiles that have H-bombs in their warheads, and like computers that cheat you out of becoming. Bill Gates says, “Wait till you can see what your computer can become.” But it’s you who should be doing the becoming. What you can become is the miracle you were born to work—not tlock open by force, you are using a key, a piece of puzzle, that opens the lock. From the short story 'Euphio Question' in Kurt Vonnegut's Welcome to the Monkey House short story collection, you can easily tell that the Euphio created could have been in significant use if they did not use it incorrectly. By the Euphio, people can reach a level in which impossible with just human themselves. Launching against technology results in the greater benefit of the people. Some may say technology may ruin our minds and lives, but the chances are, people might reach a level of immortality. Perhaps there will be an invention of useful tools that would make you live longer. That would only be one example of technology usage that is necessarily. From our everyday lives, computers are becoming to impact a majority of our lives greatly. Without it, a lot of things we have accomplished could not be done and we would develop much slower. People would be wasting half their lives doing things could be done faster and better.

Fourth Quarter Goals

For third quarter, I was aiming to get above 90% on all quizzes and tests, but I ended up not achieving that goal. This may require that I need to study harder before quizzes and tests for next quarter because I haven't done enough of that this quarter. I was pretty close to achieving my second goal because I got a B- as the final grade for Humanities, and my goal was a B. The third goal may be one of the big causes of not being able to accomplish my second goal. However, overall, I need to spend more time on each category of Humanities as to assignments, projects, homework, tests, and other things. Lastly, my third goal was to miss only three homework assignments or less. U ended up not accomplishing that goal. I didn't only miss three homework assignments in the quarter, although I don't really know the exact number of assignments I missed during this quarter. Overall, my goal was not achieved, but a few percentage of them were achieved.
The new goals for fourth quarter are:
1. Get a B for Humanities for the quarter.
2. Get above 90% on all the big tests during the quarter.
3. Get an A- or above for my population project.

Holy War?

The definition of Holy is something that has been declared sacred by religions. The definition of war is a conflict represented by force or violence between nations or between parties within a nation. Wars are never publicly declared sacred, whether in the history or presence. By the combination of these two words, it is basically implying that some wars can be recognised as sacred. Using your common sense, you can easily argue that wars can never ever be sacred, no matter what circumstances one is under. Therefore, these words can be recognised as a oxymoron because the words are not meant to ever be together but yet they are, in this case.

The definition of conflicts are disagreements and clash of ideologies between one another. When there is clash and differences between people, conflicts happen. Conflicts are unpreventable because it is how people truly are inside; fighting for their own causes. When there is clash and differences between one another, conflicts are the ways people tend to resolve the issues. Although the religions in the world all condemn killing, the conflicts are still conflicts between human. All people fight in conflicts for their own goods, therefore, on every single side of the argument, people attempt to win. Even with religions, numerous wars still happen because there are so many clashes between them and numerous worldwide. One other factor is the people who fight in religious conflicts are still human, meaning their true means of conflicts and other actions are no different than any other human being in the world fighting for their causes.
