Technological Experience
Philosophy and technology may seem like an unusual combination but the Greek word for techne (Τέχνη) has been pondered on for more than 2,000 years. Techne simply means "tools" which really translates to technologies in any forms including, a pencil, abacus, modern day computers (i.e. desktop, smartphones, tablet, any devices that has CPUs), and lastly computer programming. Selft-taught in this field, John has also studied Computer Science courses and went to a Software Engineering bootcamp.
