Amaya Toman Ngesikhathi ese-Apple, uSteve Jobs wayedume kabi ngokumbambatha izintatheli emhlane ukuze athole izihloko ezikhuluma ngaye, noma—izikhathi eziningi—wayevame ukuzichazela ukuthi benzeni kabi. Ukusabela kwemisebenzi akuzange kuphunyuke ngisho noNick Bilton New York Times, owabhala isihloko ngo-2010 mayelana ne-iPad ezayo.
"Ngakho-ke izingane zakho kufanele zithande i-iPad, akunjalo?" “Abazange bayisebenzise nhlobo,” kuphendula uJobs ngesankahlu. “Ekhaya, silinganisela ukuthi izingane zethu zisebenzisa kangakanani ubuchwepheshe,” engeza. U-Nick Bilton wamangala ngempendulo ka-Jobs - njengabanye abantu abaningi, wacabanga ukuthi "indlu yeMisebenzi" kufanele ibukeke njengepharadesi le-nerd, lapho izindonga zimbozwe izikrini zokuthinta kanye nemishini ye-Apple yonke indawo. Nokho, uJobs uqinisekise uBilton ukuthi umbono wakhe ubukude neqiniso.
U-Nick Bilton selokhu wahlangana nenani labaholi bemboni yezobuchwepheshe, futhi iningi labo liye laqondisa izingane zabo ngendlela efanayo nemisebenzi eyenziwa ngayo - ukukhawulela kakhulu isikhathi sesikrini, ukuvimbela amadivayisi athile, kanye nokubeka imikhawulo eqinile ngempela yokusebenzisa ikhompuyutha ngezimpelasonto. U-Bilton uyavuma ukuthi empeleni yammangaza kakhulu le ndlela yokuhola izingane, ngoba abazali abaningi bathi indlela ehlukile futhi babeka izingane zabo kude. amaphilisi, ama-smartphone namakhompyutha njalo nje. Abantu abasemkhakheni wezobuchwepheshe bamakhompiyutha, nokho, bazazi ngokucacile izinto zabo.
Igalari yezithombe
UChris Anderson, owayengumhleli wephephabhuku i-Wired kanye nomenzi we-drone, ubeke imikhawulo yesikhathi nezilawuli zabazali kuwo wonke amadivaysi asendlini yakhe. “Izingane zisola mina nomkami ngokuziphatha kobuFascist nokunakekela ngokweqile. Bathi akekho umngani wabo onemithetho eqinile kangaka,” kusho u-Anderson. “Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi sibubona mathupha ubungozi bobuchwepheshe. Ngazibonela ngawami amehlo angifuni ukuyibona nezingane zami. U-Anderson wayebhekisele ikakhulukazi ekuchayekeni kwezingane kokuqukethwe okungafanele, ubuxhwanguxhwangu, kodwa ngaphezu kwakho konke ukuluthwa izinto zikagesi.
U-Alex Constantinople we-OutCast Agency uvimbele indodana yakhe eneminyaka emihlanu ubudala ukuthi isebenzise amathuluzi ngokuphelele phakathi nesonto, izingane zakhe ezindala zazivunyelwe ukuzisebenzisa imizuzu engamashumi amathathu kuphela phakathi nesonto. U-Evan Williams, owayekhona lapho kuzalwa izinkundla ze-Blogger ne-Twitter, uvele washintsha ama-iPad ezingane zakhe wafaka amakhulu ezincwadi zakudala.
Izingane ezineminyaka engaphansi kweshumi zisengozini yokuba imilutha ye-electronics, ngakho ukuvinjelwa okuphelele kokusebenzisa lezi zisetshenziswa phakathi nesonto lokusebenza kuyisixazululo esihle kuzo. Ngezimpelasonto, bavunyelwe abazali babo ukuthi bachithe phakathi kwemizuzu engamashumi amathathu namahora amabili ku-iPad noma ku-smartphone. Abazali bavumela izingane ezineminyaka engu-10-14 ukuthi zisebenzise ikhompuyutha phakathi nesonto ngezinjongo zesikole kuphela. U-Lesley Gold, umsunguli we-SutherlandGold Group, uyawuvuma umthetho wokuthi "asikho isikhathi sesikrini" phakathi nesonto lomsebenzi.
Kungaba njalo okuthakaselayo
Abanye abazali bakhawulela ukusebenzisa kwezingane zabo izingosi zokuxhumana nabantu, ngaphandle kwezimo lapho okuthunyelwe kususwa ngokuzenzakalelayo ngemva kwesikhathi esithile. Abazali abaningi abasebenza emkhakheni wezobuchwepheshe kanye ne-computing abavumeli ngisho nezingane zabo ukuthi zisebenzise i-smartphone enohlelo lwedatha kuze kube yiminyaka eyishumi nesithupha, umthetho wokuqala uvame ukuvinjelwa okuphelele kwemishini kagesi ekamelweni lapho izingane zilala khona. . U-Ali Partovi, umsunguli we-iLike, naye ugcizelela kakhulu umehluko phakathi kokusetshenziswa - okungukuthi, ukubuka amavidiyo noma ukudlala imidlalo - nokudala kumishini kagesi. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, laba bazali bayavuma ukuthi ukwenqatshwa ngokuphelele kwemishini kagesi kungase kungabi nomthelela omuhle nakubantwana. Uma ukhetha ithebhulethi yengane, sincoma ukuqhathanisa ithebhulethi, lapho abahleli benaka ngokukhethekile i amaphilisi ezingane.
Uyazibuza ukuthi yini uSteve Jobs ashintshe ngayo ama-smartphones ezingane zakhe nama-iPads? "Njalo ebusuku abakwaMisebenzi babeba nesidlo sakusihlwa somndeni eduze kwetafula elikhulu ekhishini labo," kukhumbula umlobi womlando we-Jobs u-Walter Isaacson. “Ngesikhathi sesidlo sakusihlwa bekuxoxwa ngezincwadi, umlando nokunye. Akekho owake wakhipha i-iPad noma ikhompuyutha. Izingane bezibonakala zingalutheki nhlobo lezi zinto.”
