2021-12-28 Or rather, if the children who will be active in society in the future use iPads, then it is the fate of seniors to pander to them. [長年日記]

The policy of a country's education system determines the national policy of that country -- I'm pretty sure this is true (not that it's the exclusive business of dictatorships).

It is natural for countries to have different historical perceptions.

If I was born in Korea, I would argue that Korean history is legitimate, and if I was born in China, I would argue that Chinese history is legitimate.

There is no such thing as "correct history," only "the history that a country claims to have" as many countries as there are countries in the world.

It is only natural from the perspective of national interest that the history that is convenient for the country is adopted.

But that's beside the point.

The policy of a country's education system will determine the digitization of that country -- I am sure of this, too.

As mentioned here, iPad is currently the most used device in the GIGA School Initiative.

So, for the next 10 years or so, I think iPad will be the definitive tablet culture in Japan.

At this point, even I, who have been resisting Linux and Android, need to "get with the times".

So, as a first step, I'm currently typing on the bullet train with my iPad, wireless mouse, and keyboard.

I also brought my familiar Windows laptop, but I can learn a new system for me by being forced to use an inconvenient environment (like on the Shinkansen).

Or rather, if the children who will be active in society in the future use iPads, then it is the fate of seniors to pander to them.

Writing on an unfamiliar iPad can be stressful for me, but that's what "pandering" is.

We, seniors, have no choice but to live with our children.

We have always laughed at seniors who cannot use a computer.

It is our turn to be laughed at.

It's cause and effect.
