David Carr’s essay reflects very well on the title of his essay, “Keep Your Thumbs Still When I am talking to you”. Carr gives examples that relate to personal examples of how people today are constantly on their phones. By people always being on their phones it has become an act or rudeness towards other people from whom you were speaking to. Instead of keeping your elbows off of the table we will now be told to keep our thumbs still. In addition, similar to my experience at Professor Ataman’s lecture, David Carr discusses his experience at the South by Southwest Interactive Conference, at the conference he found that all the people had some sort of device with a screen that their eyes were attached too.
Bending over patients to look in their mouths and perform consideration can likewise lead to back, neck and shoulder soreness or an
TEchnology is a big issue in today’s society, because We used technology when we really shouldn’t be. For example inventors came together with the same syndicated ideas of making a suitcase that follows you around. The suitcase navigates with a gps located in your smartphone. It follows you wherever you go. I've also seen machines that fold your clothes.
Brody, in her article, states that posture is the main reason why that people are hunching, she does not believe that phones are the cause. "Poor posture can have ill effects that radiate throughout the body, causing back and neck pain, muscle fatigue, breathing limitations, arthritic joints, digestive problems and mood disturbances. It can also create a bad impression when applying for a job, starting a relationship or making new friends. "What Brody says in her quote here is that of the bad effects bad posture
The first time I read The Death of John, I immediately recognized there were many archetypes within the words of the short story. An archetype is a typical character, an action or a situation that seems to represent such universal patterns of human nature. However, the short story does not limit itself to only one of these. The story begins with a conversation between a doctor and a nurse in an Army hospital.
Doctors of the 19th century thought they were above everyone else because of their education and had a tendency to disregard the patient’s suggestions. Jacobus asserts in his work that “The hysteria that is femininity must be repressed in the interests of a masculinist psychoanalytic theory; the uncanny that is narrative must be repressed in order to sustain a realist view of fiction” (qtd. in E. Showalter 30). As the subject of male doctors’ authority, 35 years of feminist criticism had turned the interpretation of the story’s narrator into a victim of patriarchal control. In “The Yellow Wallpaper,” John says, “you really are better, dear, whether you can see it or not. I am a doctor, dear, and I know” (Gilman 236).
In the article "Your iPhone is Ruining Your Posture- and Your Mood," by Amy Cuddy, She Directly get to her argument "SmartPhones are ruining our posture. And bad Posture doesn 't just mean a stiff neck. It can hurt us in insidious psychological ways. "What she means by the quote is that, posture affects us in sneaky ways that we won 't notice it until it happens. In the article Cuddy also claims her arguments multiple times.
Carr brings up the question of how our minds can be negatively affected by this when he asks, “So what happens to our minds when we allow a single tool such dominion over our own perception and cognition?” While Carr is aware that the smartphone serves a countless number of useful purposes and tasks, he believes we should think deeper about the lesser known effects of our smartphones which people so easily allow to take over their lives. Carr begins his article with statistics, stating that the typical smartphone owner checks on their phone over 80 times a day, which translates to almost 30,000 times a year. He calls smartphones our constant companions, comparing them to teachers, secretaries, confessors, and gurus. In fact, Carr includes a 2015 Gallup survey which found that “more than half of iPhone
Examples of phone usage instead of looking around involve “Toddlers in strollers playing with digital device” (par. 5) or when people are “walking down the street with eyes on their phones” (par. 6). Even though people are stuck to their phones
Technology advancement has turned the world into a modernized society where people are persuaded to dive into the idea of incorporating the use of technology into their lives. In the excerpt, “The Pedestrian” by Ray Bradbury, it is emphasized that technology has become the center of people’s lives. A world in which the normalization of technology has conquered the perspective of those who are easily influenced by what others perceive as normal. Because technological advancement is used in different ways throughout the world, people have unknowingly allowed technology to acquire the capabilities they possess.
People believe technological advances are changing the public’s mind that they must avoid and restrain from using the technologies because they are destroying our experience with real life. This new movement is educating
people are in pain. In the text this is shown when it says “he saw the lean figure of General Zaroff just ahead of him Rainsford made out another figure.. It was the giant Ivan. General Zaroff was still on his but Ivan was not” (pg.53). This shows General Zaroff is selfish because he made I van go first which had killed him.
Many people depend on technology without knowing its potential effects. People tend to develop their mind as technology’s progressed. They want to be on the same level as technology’s improved. However, they do not fully understand its consequences. Since technology brings conveniences, people tend to rely on it.
Technology has always been progressing thus it is rampant in our society today. We use technology; depend on technology in our daily life and our needs and demands for technology keep on rising (Ramey, 2012). Wherever you look, you will see people holding different kinds of technology like cell phone, laptop, tablets and etc. It appears to most of us that technology is a necessity to the point where we can no longer live without it. According to Gavin (2013), technology moves at a rapid pace, and can be hard to keep up with at times.
