Hacker’s claim on firms that they have hacked has an advantage over their act of hacking is a disputable presumption. Although firms are able to know that their systems are weak, no one is hacking gratuitously. Hackers have their own internal motives in hacking. These motives are predominantly selfish since it’s for their own interest. Unless they are legally paid to do so, the act of hacking won’t do any good to a business. It will never improve security since hackers are criminals in nature. They wouldn’t admit even if they’re caught. They are like addicts that will always make a way to destroy others system even for simplest reasons.

Hacking carries with it a negative connotation. Of course, it wouldn’t exist if computer breakers are not prevalent. Hacking will never be ethical unless it  is practiced for the common good.

No matter what a hacker claim, he must be condemned for his unethical acts and always keep in mind that hackers will always be hackers .

Decision making is an integral aspect for any organization. It is extensively practiced by top level managers and less by rank-and-file workers. Decision making is neither a simple transaction nor an easy deal. One wrong decision could be a menace to any business. Therefore, it must be left with those fully equipped with knowledge and skills and responsible whatever its consequences.

Softwares, nowadays, are a great help to organizations. It could do decision making through its program. In just a few clicks, it could give logical analysis based on entered facts and stored procedures without much time and effort. However, these softwares cannot function without human intervention. Only workers with enough technical skills and abilities could run these kinds of softwares. These individuals are those who must have at least entered college or have earned a degree on these specialized fields.

The decisions made by softwares, however, are just mere decisions made from its calculations.

It does not consider different factors that only educated and intelligent humans could do. Only humans could combine their intellectual and psychological judgments. Nonetheless, given the educational system in these day and age, softwares must be coupled with college –educated workers for increased effectiveness.

A world with high speed broadband connections will lead to a virtual meeting place.

Lesser face to face communications and flesh time is obsolete. People won’t meet up in malls to shop or dine, in parks to unwind, and conference rooms to discuss .Physical structures of businesses are of no use .People will just stay at home, take a few clicks and everything will come to them. That’s the byproduct of Internet.

If there’s one service that might be compromised when the world indeed become a virtual meeting place, it‘s telecommunications. It’s a downturn to telecommunication companies like Globe and Smart

since people would prefer to use online messaging to reach their loved ones unlimitedly rather than using prepaid. People would resort to video calls, chat, and emails without subscribing to any promo.

Prepaid and postpaid subscribers will lessen and broadband users will become more and more.

High-speed broadband connection will indeed radically change the way we connect with the world.

In today’s industry, nothing is cheap. Almost everything is expensive and all that’s considered “cheap” are meant to be expensive sooner or later.So, who wouldn’t want something that is not only cheap but free of charge nowadays? Of course, everybody wants.

Hence, Open source software is indeed  the answer .

      

Open source software is  software whose source code is available for modification or enhancement by anyone. 

As a student and a consumer as well, it is very useful to have this kind of product open for public use.Since, one did not have to spend much in exchange of the benefits it could give to him as a user.The user, either a programmer or not, could modify it with enough knowledge and utilize it for whatever legal purpose it may serve.It can also be shared to others as long as they do the same modification. Open source software is also very beneficial to students since they can learn on how to make a good software with the aid of other’s works, and it is also stable and secure for it can be checked for errors and discrepancies made by original authors.

Looking at it with an economist’s perspective,however,  it is not absolutely free.”There’s no such thing as free lunch” in this world anyway.Yes, it is free of charge on the acquisition of the software but consumers must face trade-offs. The business markets are clever enough not to get something from what they offer.Sellers get their gains from the software services and support they got from the users since its quite lucrative thing to do.

Weighing the benefits and the cost, it is evident that benefits outweigh the cost even if they charge a little in the near future. Thus, open source software must proliferate and it will never disappear as long as many people continue having the benefits it could offer.

Mobile phones,tablets,and laptops, these are some of the most devices that people nowadays commonly have. Different brands and industrial design are introduced for these devices. The ordinary people,perhaps can no longer distinguish the difference between those devices for if we draw a borderline between them , the difference is quite negligible  because  some may look the same but of different feature while some are distinct to look at but of the same usage.This is how the advent of technology brought us to the world of innovation and competitive advantage.

 

 

For example, if your mobile phone can be used for SMS, MMS, or other types of messaging, then your tablet can provide you the same convenience, how much more if you’ll use your newest laptop that can also do video conferencing or chat using Internet.There is also a recent release of tablet from Microsoft that can replace your laptop, the Microsoft Surface Pro 3.Almost everything you can in a desktop computer are packed in this trendy and stylish device.

 

 

Now, how can we precisely distinguish a gadget from a useful device when a product that we call gadgets like different brands of tablets can also be a useful device at the same time,excluding the facts mentioned above?.Perhaps, it’s about what contains the product itself and their purposes. I’m talking about the Apps, Software, and other installed programs in the device that can be utilized for entertainment, novelty, and “in” factor in the society and also for educational, social, or well-being purposes.

Devices that can be called ”gadgets” are those made mainly for leisure, entertainment or recreation such as gaming devices like PSPs, and XBOx, or music players like Ipod. Some of which can be use as a data storage like pictures and other files but the installed programs are mainly designed for  novelty purposes only.

 

 

 

 In contrast, Useful devices are those that are commonly found in students, employees, households and institutions for education, business, government administrative offices, or even health centers. These are devices that serve as an asset of the organization, one of the capital,in particular. Its design, storage capacity, processing speed and softwares are specifically designed to cater the needs of any organization or individual entities to maximize profit or utilize resources for a common goal.Like desktop computers, laptops, and other electronic devices for database, Microsoft office generated projects, input of important information and etc.

I love adventure.Going to places and discovering new things are heaven-on-earth memories for me.Same as shopping, may it be in simple markets, malls or any commercial establishments , I will always love to go anywhere and shop for souvenirs or personal use. But because of existence of cyber world, the world is within one’s reach. In just a click, I can have whatever I want without any hassle with the existence of E-commerce. However, its the other way around when we go traditional. People will travel in specific places to shop(not to mention traffic, time and effort allocated), search for what they need in the whole parameter of the store, and fall in long lines to pay at the counter.Oops, that sounds so lame! But that is the reality in public or even in private places we can never deny.
Of course, if we have several reasons why not to shop like how I mentioned earlier, there will always be something in it why some still prefer it instead. In my own perspective, as a meticulous customer, I want to ensure that every product I bought fits on me. Just like in clothing, I should be able to try it in fitting rooms and see if the color matches my skintone, or if it really fits to my body shape.Also, it is very practical to see the actual product before buying it because propagandas will always exist in marketing products or services online.
Either you go traditional or e-commerce, always choose whats best for your budget and interest and remember that Customers are always right.

Google, Facebook, and Yahoo, these are the sites I usually visit on the internet. Nowadays, you’re an alien from another planet or a deviant if you don’t have any idea or access on the media world.In order to be updated on society’s gradual modernization, one must not be obsolete to be innovative and aware of the changing world.The use of computers for storing,manipulating,and interpreting data is a must. As a student,I must say, information technology had become one of the basic necessities in order for a school to be conducive for learning opportunities. Surfing the internet, using software and applications for course requirements e.g Powerpoint presentations, and MS Word generated papers are only some of huge help IT can give me in my study life. Moreover, I am able to store and organize my important documents, pictures with my loved ones, and videos that are very significant part of my life. Also, IT has given me the chance to communicate with my loved ones miles away through the internet or social networking sites.
Either at school, at home, or in my career sooner Information Technology will always be my friend. It has become a necessity for everyday living.
