Wonga are blinding critics with science
It makes the most of the fact that the internet is replete with thousands of pieces of information about us that, in aggregate, paint a reasonable picture of who we are. More importantly for Wonga, they also paint a picture of how creditworthy we might be.

Ted Hsu questions Gary Goodyear, Minister of State for Science and Technology, in Industry Committee, Nov. 29, 2012. Ministers come before committee to answer questions about the Supplementary Estimates which parliament will then vote on in order to authorize spending for the rest of the year. The questions were about 1) possible downloading of budget cuts to CANARIE, 2) Funding for Applied Research Tools and Instruments in the Colleges and Community Innovation Program versus cuts to NSERC’s main Research Tools and Instrumentation program, 3) The pace of restructuring at NRC.

Philosopher and Sociologist Jacques Ellul explains how technology is not “neutral” and is implicated in every aspect of social relations. I hope this video helps explain why green anarchists are not setting for less when they defend small-scale organization.

Q&A: Is there a point where advancement in science and technology becomes dangerous? Are we already there?

On January 2, 2011, In The Internet And Your Health, By admin

Question by bad_ambassador: Is there a point where advancement in science and technology becomes dangerous? Are we already there?
Hi.
There are many little topics to consider here I think.
I’ll list a couple that are on my mind, but please feel free to add your own ideas and thoughts.

1) The internet is vast already. And it seems like it is only going to expand in the future. It is also becoming available to more people. Is it dangerous to provide a means of instant communication to the common man who may take advantage of it? You may find instructions on how to build a bomb online, for example.

The internet also connects everyone who has a computer (or a cell phone!) to everyone else who has one. Hacking presents a pretty big security risk, I think. This being said, though, we all know it is probably impossible, not to mention stupid, to “get rid of” the internet. But there may come a point where limiting access to sites becomes necessary.

2) I also wanted to mention medical advances, and how we want to keep extending our lives. Could this create overpopulation or something? Thanks

Best answer:

Answer by Darth Severus
no, we were there in late 40′s when we invented nuclear weapons.

1. Computer safety is a billion dollar market with several firms competing in it, so they will be able to respond to any threat.

2. We could support 10 billion people with _current_ agricultural technology. And we are only at 6 billions now, and technology keeps developing.

There is a problem tho – dumbing down of population, as demonstrated by Bush presidency and Toad’s post below me.
