Welcome to Prof. Price's Freshman Composition blog. Our goal here is to have a space where students can share, comment and provide feedback on discussions and assignments. It is not necessary to write in formal language or to be overly "politically correct" provided that your comments are respectful to each student's thoughts/comments and all groups, races, ethnicities.
Technology in the case of Watson, takes away from our concept of work or at least good paying jobs. Work is our thought of physical labor or strainus action we do with our minds or body. Technology in this case is so advanced that it has the ability to replace jobs or work.
Technology does most of the work for us now a days compared to previous generations. We grew up with the beginning of technological computers to them evolving so much that we're used to having aid from an all knowing source. Technology is a great thing but with strides towards efficiency we lose the human element that creates work and builds people to discipline and responsibility.
question on page 226 in the text. Questions on Meaning 1) The signifigance of the house was that it was actually characterized with a personality, human traits. The humans were so reliable on the house that the house actually out lived them. The only living thing in the house was the family dog who had passed away in the parlor. i dont quiet know the meaning but i think realizing there was no one left in that house. It did not have the nurture of the people to care for it.
I think technology does effect higher paying jobs in the sense of them taking over humans jobs. they replace the labor that we do in a very less cost. they machines cost alot more money but in the long run it pays to get it because they are alot cheaper then regular workers and also they dont call out sick, i mean yea the machines might need maintence but then again they are always going to be there
Technology affects higher skill jobs because they are making these machines more complex so complex that they can do the jobs of humans at half the cost and the time. For example, I saw on Tv this hospital that had a machine performing surgery while the doctor is controlling it from outside the room. But the only reason he was even there is because the RoboDoc wasn't updated to do it alone (with supervision) .
