The novel of 1984 is one of my favorite book because it reflect a future that can be possible in this time. In the book we read so many reference about the reality, language, war, peace, ignorance and other importante topics that currently they continue causing important repercussion in our days. Besides, George Orwell mention us what type of weapons use the government to stop the opposition and how they control the reality through the telescreen and their message to all society.
In Language as the "Ultimate Weapon" tell us an analysis about the novel of George Orwell: 1984. Without a doubt the language take an importante role in a fiction 1984, however nowadays too. It possible that the governments don't try to control our language or try to create a new weapon through of the language, but it could be kindred to the programming languages.
In this blog I don't make an analysis or an opinion about the novel 1984, but I want to make a reflection about programming language and how work like a weapon between companies and governments. For example, some government use the hardware and software to control the society, your reality and your lives. There have been many cases in where the companies with the governments transgress the information to take advantage over your opponents and over the society.
I don't know what was the main reason to create complex computers and why the computational science continue improving. Nevertheless, we should try to improve these tools to help the people and the world to make it a better place. It's a romantic perspective, but many people continue dying, murdering and the world looks like that never could return to it was. Therefore, we should have more awareness about why we are studying computational system: to make a better world or four our own benefit.
