IT makes it easy


It is un doubtable that IT is taking more space in our life day by day, I think someday we will not find place for us as human beings in this plant with IT!!!

It is there in our work, study, fun and even out relation (IT relations, I like to talk about it, but maybe later)

But still IT makes our life easier.

Now, I want you to imagine that there is no front page technique in our life, what does it means? Means, whatever you want to do with any IT application you have to write it in program same as in DOS system!!!

You want to access to the net or write an e-mail or even chat, you have to write such long and complex program in JAVA.

You want to use the ATM, well it fine but you have to write the program in basic language.

Imagine long Q in the supermarket and the casher has to re write all your items and their price and …..

STOP!!

Come back here!! You don’t need to imagine all these awful things, we have GUI, have you heard about it?

Well, it is Graphical User Interface, it is such part from execution programmings depends on the graphical instructions to execute the programs, for example your windows is kind of GUI by clicking on any icon you got your instruction executed. In ATM we have the visual basic were you having all orders as touchable icon.

We can call it as low level programming where it doesn't need for high programming skills and every one can use it.

Well, thank for ALLAH we have this valued click!!!

How does scientific progress affect mankind?

In early days man depended mostly on nature for his needs. He cultivated land for agriculture and used trees and animals for his needs.But when industrialization began man wanted more supply for more production(goods).Man started to think for the alternative ways. In due course many things like modern means of transportation,communication etc came into picture.This made ones life very easy.As years passed by population increased.Scientists started to research on crops to satisfy the food needs of the increasing population.Revolution in medicine and biology decreased the deaths of people .Many new drugs were discovered to cure the diseases. Many new technologies were invented.Man even got into the moon.Man made artificial satellites to discover new facts about the universe.He made many experiments on nucleus of different atoms.He made many experiments that were strong enough to destroy even the earth if they failed.
These scientific inventions had disadvantages too. The Modern means of transport led to the pollution of air and water. Increase in the usage of chemicals to the crops led to land pollution.Globalwarming,acidic rains,depletion of ozone layer are some of the examples of its consequences. We are destroying not only our resources but also of many other organisms.
Now if we think to stop all the scientific progress,then it is hard to live as science has become an integrated part in our day to day lives.But if not ,all the organisms lives are at stake.So what to do?
In my view one must always implement alternative ways to avoid the ill effects of any scientific progress or tools.Every scientific experiment has two sides advantages and disadvantages.So one must always make effective use of our day to day tools.Every individual must feel the responsibility to keep our earth safe to live in.

We are spoiling our environement in the name scientific experiments

Edited Mona's article(Are scientific experiments spoiling nature)

Are we spoiling our nature through scientific progress?

Are we spoiling our nature in the name of scientific progress

Well.., it’s a controversial question to ask, because it does both good and bad to us.

but the way scientific progress or research has affected nature is gruesome .In the name of scientific progress we human beings are going away from our responsibilities as a citizen and using our environment for our selfish motives .By introducing various technologies for our purposes, as a citizen we are failing to protect our environment and degrading it for our personal purposes. It is pity to know that we human beings look for our temporary gains but neglect our long run needs by destroying it and leaving no good environment for our future generations.

We have achieved tremendous progress in the field of nuclear power by creating high technology weapons and advancements. But if we hadn’t used nuclear weapons in a cruel manner, disastrous events like Hiroshima and Nagasaki wouldn't have happened. Use of these nuclear weapons might have been just for few minutes, but its effect is seen for centuries and still generations of human life, plant and animal life are facing problems. Scientific progress has also leaded to various new kinds of disease like scar, anthrax, swineflu few of them to mention. But as it goes a coin has two sides, similarly scientific research has done a lot good to us. It is due to the scientific progress only that we are leading such a luxurious life.

Scientific progress affecting the environment doesn't mean actual progress. It must be enhanced in right direction and measures must be taken such that any scientific research doesn’t have drastic effect on environment. Instead of degrading the nature it should strength the environment and strives to have a better tomorrow.

hi mona,

Your article is good but be sure to recheck once before posting. Make sure to concentrate on spell check. Rest of the thing is good as per my knowledge.
