Technology: A Friend to Humanity

     Technology has advanced with years and it has changed the way we purchase products, the way we live, the way we communicate, the way we travel, the way we learn and so many changes have been brought about by these continuous technological advancements. As people's demand and lifestyle change, the demand for advancing the type of technology we use is high.

     "Wavefront: Accentuating Potentials, Activating Technological Advancements" is the theme of this year's National Science Club Month. How does this relate to us? The theme urges everyone of us to use our knowledge, and unleash our potentials so that we can contribute in the development, progress, and advancement of technology. We may not know it, but even our smallest efforts can contribute to our society, and inspire other people to take actions too. Technological advancements have helped business and organizations save time and cost of production, helped in the field of medicine and health care, communication and even in agriculture. From food production, environmental conservation, possible cures for illnesses, etc., to understand how the things around us operate, we must be able to comprehend the science behind it. We all have potentials -- all we need is dedication and zeal.

     "As we design new technology, as we make use of our knowledge about the world and the knowledge that we are gaining about ourselves, about our thinking processes, through research in Al and cognitive simulation, we will realise that we have to apply our technology in a way that keeps man’s peace with the universe in which he lives, instead of conceiving our technology as a weapon with which man can wage war on the rest of nature." - Herbert Simon

The City Never Sleeps

       July 23, 2018, Mr. Rodrigo Roa Duterte delivered his State of the Nation Address. The President's SONA this year was not as long as his previous ones but he was able to point out unfixed issues and campaigns he desires to implement.            I don't hold any grudge against the President but to  convey complaint  on a particular statement from his SONA is not a sin, is it?  " Your concern is human rights, mine is human lives " is unpleasing to the ears. Mr. Duterte is framing our mutual concerns that it seemed to contradict. You can't totally support human lives without supporting human rights. Human rights is the right to life and the right to live. Its point is to protect lives. From the idea I deducted from his statement, it's as if our concerns are different from each other. He claims to be concerned on human lives when in fact, he is the root of death abundance in the the country he leads. Human lives su...

Expression of Opinion

Dear Mr. President, To formally start my message, I would like to greet you a good day, all the way from Ilocos Sur. Being a President is a huge responsibility. The stake of the Philippines depend under your leadership. I would like to convey my opinion regarding your governance, including your campaign against illegal drugs. Many people wish that you will be impeached because they dislike your supremacy but as a matter of fact, you are better than those they favor to be on your position. You are a good leader but some people choose to be blinded by your negative actions. Instead of helping you avoid mistakes, they wait for you to commit one. Though there really are reasons to be against you. Your campaign against illegal drugs took away the lives of people that may still have room for change and even those who are innocent. While you are eradicating one of the roots of crime, you are violating human rights also. Second, isn't it odd for a person reigning on a pedestal to be sp...
