overtime people thought that it would look different so they changed it to what they thought.

Why do you think writers from the Romantic period shifted away from the Puritan-style and began writing about characters who made bad choices?

When you meet new people, what is something you want them to know about who you are? What do you think people notice first?

Who they are. What people know them for.

That I am nice but confident. That Im not scared of things but I know how to handle them.

What are the ethical problems associated with employing children under the age of 16? 
They showed the truth of how bad it was on their body and how unsafe it was. How much physical and emotion stress there was. They don't have the strength or knowledge to be able to know its wrong and fight back.

Why or why not? 
Yeah they are leaning towards the employee not all the way

What motive could this publication company (NBC) have for publishing this story? 
show people the workers perspective. 

What information, if any, is left out or not addressed adequately? 
the quotes causes more problems and taking parts and pieces out.]]> 2023-04-05 18:26:38 UTC https://padlet.com/keirapensyl/con8zxnm2n5ted9y/wish/2545333575 Post #23: 4/21/23 keirapensyl https://padlet.com/keirapensyl/con8zxnm2n5ted9y/wish/2566006899 Choose one of the technologies mentioned in the article and discuss whether or not you think it is as "creepy" as the article suggests. 
Voiceprint recognition systems
What do you think E.M. Forester would think about that technology? Why?
That we are using technology and becoming a lave to it. That it will take over everyone and we will become overly dependent over it. Because we have created it so deep and so detailed that we rely on it to learn and do daily things.]]> 2023-04-24 16:47:45 UTC https://padlet.com/keirapensyl/con8zxnm2n5ted9y/wish/2566006899 Post #24: 4/24/23 keirapensyl https://padlet.com/keirapensyl/con8zxnm2n5ted9y/wish/2566135250 Based on the information described in the video, what moral dilemma do self-driving cars create? 
It would only go on data it has and reaction time just what it is programed to do

In your opinion, what type of "code" should self-driving cars have? (prioritize the driver's life, minimize damage, minimize harm to other drivers, etc.) Why?
Human like characteristics. Prove they are awake and there. So they are there to make the decision instead of relying on the car.]]> 2023-04-24 18:28:30 UTC https://padlet.com/keirapensyl/con8zxnm2n5ted9y/wish/2566135250 Post #25: 5/2/23 keirapensyl https://padlet.com/keirapensyl/con8zxnm2n5ted9y/wish/2575627768 The topic of today's short story is "social progress." 

Based on what you've seen in the video, decide whether or not this is progress? Why or why not? 
No it's not. You still need to run the machine, charge it, watch the plants, just inside robotically and not fresh sun plants.

What implications does this new technology have for farmers? Are the effects positive, negative, or both?
Takes job, land, negative because they lost their job money and their whole life line. Its unethical.

  • How does the article you chose relate to the story "The Wretched and the Beautiful"? 
    1. It describes how people care more about things that are 'beautiful' and in the story didn't care about the first set of aliens because they were ugly.
  • What findings discussed in the article are similar to what is discussed in the story? Cite a piece of evidence from the article to support your answer. 
    1. In the story they didn't do much for them because of how they looked.  "They had spent a lot of money and effort to entice a pair of them to nest in their backyard" that family liked how the birds looked so they did stuff to help them.
  • In your own experience, are the article's findings accurate? Have you ever experienced or witnessed what the article discusses?
    1. Yeah, yes you would never catch me dead looking at a snake or spider close but I would always hold a squirrel or bird if I got a chance

    No, I am not an adventurous I want this I want that type of person I just kinda go with the flow. I don't think about it so much. I like what I have but I would go for a week.

    Do you think it's ethical for parents of children in that area to force them to live there? 
    No they should get to choose.
    What benefits and/or detriments does this kind of community offer?
    People get a little bit of a break and get more stuff done.
