Advantages And Disadvantages Of Computer

Computers are here to stay, whether we like
them or not. They are part of the juggernaut of the Industrial Revolution which began in England
with textile making. This put many independent weavers out of jobs. I think the most important
thing to recognize about computers and the other innovations that go with it is that it keeps
changing the job market. It has been said that a person should expect to change jobs several
times during his or her life. The only way for an intelligent person to cope with this
frightening reality is to keep preparing for new developments. And the best way to do this is
through "continuing education." You have to foresee what is going to happen in your
particular field of interest and source of income and be prepared to adapt to the new
conditions. The best way to do this is through education in school, because the teachers know
what is coming better than almost anybody else. There are plenty of good jobs for people who are
prepared to fill them. But people who just want to feel comfortable in their present jobs and
spend their time at work watching television or playing video games may be in for a rude shock
if and when their job is eliminated or taken over by a robot!
