People achieve progress with technology through the “proactionary principle, which is: You

engage with technology. You try it out… You try to anticipate it, but after anticipating it, you

constantly asses it… and when it diverts from what you want… we fix it, but most importantly,

we relocate it… (and) find a new job for it.” -Kevin Kelly founding editor of wired magazine.

This quote is saying that technology is always changing. You use it and when it doesn’t do what

you want, you change it. It is also saying that this is how you achieve progress. That this is

always a good thing. He is saying that you should always just go with technology. Go where it

leads you. This statement is true. Our world is always changing and most of it is due to

technology. All of the advancements our world has made was because of technology. For

example our school. It wouldn’t be possible to succeed in our school without technology. Pens,

pencils, paper, tablets, and phones. If we didn’t have any of these, school would be very

difficult. Our advancements made in school were all made by technology.

Technology is everything that we have made. For one day if anyone tried to get through the day

without using it. I don’t think it would be possible. You can’t get water from the sink, you can’t

go to the grocery store to buy your food and you can’t cook the food that you do get. Not to

mention that you would have to sleep outside not in a house. Because houses are made by

technology.

It is a necessity in everyone’s lives and it is a positive thing. Every bit of technology that we

produce can be put to a something good. I’m not saying that it always is, but it can be. For

example nuclear bombs were made bad, but they figured out how to use the technology within

the bombs to give us power. Every advancement made with technology is progress. And

progress is being made every single day.
