Let’s face it – you’re a robot !
Technology to millennials is different from what any other generation has seen it as. We don’t like to list microwaves, radiators or anything like that as a part of it. The world of technology has grown so fat these couple of year that we don’t consider a regrigirator to be more than a basic need. Even radios and televisions are starting to fall into that category of regular appliances every household has to have. Generation Y has a whole new list of technology which nowadays includes a phone , a computer, gaming consoles, a televison, and basically anything you can control without ever having to get up or even leave our rooms .
When’s the last time someone asked you about something neither of you knew about and you didn’t take your phone out to ’google’ it? Now think about how many times you’ve tried to figure out the answer yourself. Sure , both ways may have plenty of attempts but which has succeeded the most – the artificial or the real brain? The answer is quite simple , isn’t it! Technology has so much to do with today ’s knowledge. You probably wouldn’t know half the things you know now if it weren’t for the Internet . Looking at it like that, millennials don’t really differ from robots all that much. Some are even more advanced that any of us! Both of us use technology every single day to recieve and process information. Both of us move fast and socialize through the Internet. Everything we get from a robot, such as a phone or a computer, we analyze and memorize for future purposes. In conclusion , you are your smartphone and all its apps . There ’s even a little bit of Flappy Bird still flying around inside you.
It is quite impossible to live without a phone these days . A study conducted by Nielsen, an American global information and measurement company shows that over 85% of millennials own smartphones. It also states that we are twice as likely (40%) to use social media in the bathroom . It’s very possible that you’ve done it too! Next time, remember to be careful so it doesn’t fall in... That is said to happen quite a lot as well. That just shows we’re extremely addicted. We rely on this new list of technology like a robot relies on its database. Without any data, they’d just be a shell with blank eyes and so would every millennial. Don’t worry though! As young teens who’ve just adjusted to dishwashers, your parents would have the same exact look when finding out they have to clean every single dish by hand . Everyone’s the same.
To be honest, we’re all robots.

Social media information and data collection and security

What users might not know All social media companies confirm that they strongly believe into data security and they do everything possible to keep their users information safe and only they can access into their servers. They want to make their users trust them and i think it could be also used as marketing tool a bit. But words on the internet in this age doesn’t really mean anything. According to the classified documents that have leaked over the recent years, big social platforms and technology companies have provided agencies with the „back door“ to their servers. Agencies could access information collected, track users and spy on them, without users knowing it. Of course when the news broke out, it got a lot of media ttention because majority wasnt sure it will be like this. Companes had to come forward and explain thing or two. After the leaks companies have become more transparent about their server side information sharing to 3rd parties and only when court order has placed.

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

The development of the space rockets took place during World War II. It was the Germans who built the first really big rockets, as a way of bombing Britain without needing to use aircraft. First the V1 was built and then later the V2 - a more powerful rocket which was able to carry a large warhead of explosives to Britain. After the war, the Soviet Union and the United States took German rocket technology back to their countries. The main motive was to build rockets to launch nuclear missiles. The idea of using military rockets to launch a satellite was really an afterthought. In the 1950s the Soviet Union and the USA invested large amounts of money in their new space programmes. On 4 October 1957, an announcement by the Soviet Union took the world by surprise. `Sputnik', the first artificial satellite, which literally means "travelling companion" had been launched and

learned along theway,butit’sstill the same book, with the same purpose:It’sstill a book about designing great, usableWebsites. And it’s also still a book about designing anything that people need to interact with, whether it’s a microwave oven, a mobile app, or an ATM. The basic principles are the same even if the landscape has changed, because usability is about people and how they understand and use things, not abouttechnology.And while technology often changesquickly,people change veryslowly.3 3 There’sawonderfulNorwegianvideo(withsubtitles)aboutthisthatshowsamonkgettinghelpashestrugglestousethe newfangled“book.”(Searchfor“medievalhelpdesk”onYouTube.)

Silicon Valley

All great cities were located on waterways, because cities made money by trade, and water was the only economical way to ship. Now you could make a great city anywhere, if you could get the right people to move there. So the question of how to make a silicon valley becomes: who are the right people, and how do you get them to move? Two Types I think you only need two kinds of people to create a technology hub: rich people and nerds. They're the limiting reagents in the reaction that produces startups, because they're the only ones present when startups get started. Everyone else will move. Observation bears this out: within the US, towns have become startup hubs if and only if they have both rich people and nerds. Few startups happen in Miami, for example, because although it's full of rich people, it has few nerds. It's not the kind of place nerds

· And when you begin to miss me, dont forget it was you who let me go. · There is an end to things no matter how much we want to hold into them. · Otsisin keset seda pimedust, sind ja loodetud vabadust,kui mu käed su poole, tegid alguse loole, printsessist ja printsist, ühest kaunist kandist, kus oleme meie kaks, kus lõbutseme, kuni otsas jaks. Sa ei pea muinasmaad looma, sa ei pea tähti taevast tooma. Ole vaid minu kõrval, kui tõuseb päike. Ole vaid mu kõrval kui mind piinab meeleheide. Ole mu kõrval, kui kumab kuu, kui su nime hüüab mu suu, ära tõota mulle, et armastad mind, kui ei ole valmis ohverdama end. Luba, et printsess jääb printsiga, kuni nad veel siin ilmas elavad. Unustame hetkeks kõik muu me, tunnetame üksteise kiireid südamelööke, kas tunned, kuidas süda jätab lööke vahele, see kõik on midagi uut, meile kahele. · Women are stronger than men, because they can walk in a 12 cm stilettos without showing t

THE CAPITALIST NIGER

I am frightened and disgusted at the same time, at a people who produce nothing and consume everything that others produce. We are always ready to make excuses about the inventions and products our people have perfected in long gone eras, but which have been stolen from us, and the ones who stole them have gone on to become very rich. This is nothing but an excuse for our failures. In 1987, David Sun and John Tu, both immigrants, started their Kingston Technology Company in Fountain Valley, California with hardly much financing 3 other than their savings. Nine years later they sold 80 percent of the company to the Softbank Corporation of Japan for $1.5 billion. The company is still going strong, and they still control 20%, after pocketing $1.5 billion. In 1997, former US President George W. Bush was asked to speak to a group of officials of Global Crossing Ltd
