I believe that the plan to get back sweetie’s heart using computer science to scan her brain, and make a perfect A.I simulation of the program will ultimately fail. To first understand my arguments, one has to understand the argument of A.I, the different types, and why the A.I that is needed for this program will most likely never exist. I support Nagel’s theory, in which no matter how much technology advances, there will always be something different between machine and man. This puts A.I.…
the program. A Computer Science major can do extraordinary things with programming skills. For instance, say you are sick and check into a hospital to be looked over by a doctor. When you check in, the front desk worker has to put your…
The lessons Hopper’s father gave her inspired her to defy social norms. Additionally, her frustration with the lack of people who found their passion in programming and who could actually use a computer drove her to make computers usable by all. As a result of her accomplishments, Hopper advanced techniques in computer science, made computers able to be used in man different fields, and empowered others to…
In the book, Outliers: The Story of Success, by Malcolm Gladwell, the author is challenging our views of how people become successful. He is saying that to get to where you want to be you can’t rely solely on hard work or determination. It takes much more than that, something that many of us don’t get; opportunities. If you want to be successful, you need a series of opportunities that present themselves to you at the right time, to put you ahead of everyone else. He proves this idea in chapter…
Contemporary TV: This Is Us This Is Us is a new NBC show that premiered on the 20th of September of this year and International Business Times reporter, Caitlyn Hitt, summarizes the beginning of the first episode with, “It centers around five people — one couple, two siblings and a big wig trying to discover his roots [who all happen to be celebrating their 36th birthday]”(Hitt). This Is Us fits into Jason Mittell’s definition of “narrative complexity” through its unique use of operational…
creativity. First, Jay mentions that the learning ability is obligatory for a successful software engineer because today is an age in which the technology is growing with a high speed. New algorithms, improved methods are introduced every day. Programming language and tools are updated frequently. To adapt the developing speed of the applications and meet the requirement of their work, software engineers should love tinkering around systems and apps, and have a wide range of knowledge to figure…
It was my junior year of high school when I was seventeen years old. The school counselors sat me down in a bleak, yellow office and explained to me that all of my missed classes were taking a toll; I would not be able to graduate on time like the rest of my classmates. The counselors talked amongst themselves afterwards and I could hear them saying that it was only a matter of time before I dropped out. Their hushed tones dripped with condescension as they remarked I was just like the rest of…
I kept on making the same errors that I made a year ago when I first picked up programming. Little did I know that this was a growing pain and it was crucial for me to get accustomed to this continuous struggle. Unlike my other classmates, I persevered when nothing made sense to me. It was the dream of being able to finally make this…
The first day of the Cherry Hill East Robotics club was a moment that sparked the next fours years of my life. At first, I couldn’t find the room and asked for help. “I’m going there now, follow me,” Jack said. At the end of the hallway, past the sawdust smelling workshop and decorative art room, lies a room with a broken door that scrapes the ground. But behind that door,lies the wondrous robotics room. What used to be a storage room has been transformed into a place where people can…
