1984: The Logic in Lunacy

George Orwell appeared to be part of the anti-Als novel in 1984, but contradictions and intertwining entanglements created complex reading experiences. Every contradiction in the novel proves that it is wise and effective. Orwell pours creative new things into this receding society with a clever slogan, ideology, and language, confusing what they have just read and forcing people to reevaluate their logic . Early in the novel, three basic Maxim in Ingsoc were proposed.

So far, I explained the meaning of "competitive logic" and "market logic" in demonstration software, and the initial procedure from 1982 to 1984. But what is "material logic"? The material logic here includes a personal computer itself, especially a personal computer having a graphic function, and the physical characteristics of these computers, their material agents, are software manufacturers and users' resources, media, Construct constraints. Existing programs widely used on these computers, such as spreadsheets and drawing programs, are themselves important parts of material logic. As with hardware, software has unavoidable importance. The most abstract thing is that computer programs can be thought of as a specific pattern. In fact, each instance of the program is the pattern in the document, including the subject of the author.

In 1984 when I was in the United States, Xerox invented Ethernet, Xerox invented Windows, Xerox invented object-oriented programming. When Xerox was fully launched in 1984, the three major inventions in today's computer industry came from the laboratory. It's not beautiful, so it's dead. When I sold it for $ 14,000 in 1984, I saw Xerox 's Star Workstation in the shop. All of these zeros are astronomical numbers for me. At that time, I got too much computer for $ 2,000. But in any case, $ 2,000 is 7 times better than $ 14,000. If you say that the car was 5000 dollars at that time, there are 7 times you think that the house was 100 thousand dollars, and your wife will not let you buy a computer. Then you try to say to her that it will cut the price in half in two years, you can forget it. Therefore, it obviously sells badly. But since Xerox knows what Windows is, what the Internet is, and what is object-oriented programming, why does not it cut down?
