Ah, the digital divide and the challenges faced by developing economies—excellent points!

Indeed, access to banking and technology is not evenly distributed across the globe. It's crucial to bridge this gap and ensure that everyone has equal opportunities to participate in the technological revolution, including computer programming.

Fortunately, efforts are being made to address these issues. Initiatives such as mobile banking have been successful in providing financial services to unbanked populations. Additionally, organizations are working on expanding internet access through innovative solutions like satellite networks or mesh networks that can cover remote areas.

When it comes to incorporating developing economies into the tech revolution, education plays a vital role. Investing in education systems that prioritize STEM subjects can help nurture local talent for computer programming and other technical skills.

Furthermore, partnerships between developed and developing countries can facilitate knowledge transfer, training programs, and infrastructure development. By fostering collaboration and sharing resources fairly across nations, we can empower those who currently lack access while also enhancing global innovation as a whole.

It's an ongoing process with no one-size-fits-all solution. However daunting it may seem at times though, progress is possible when we work together toward inclusivity and equal opportunities for all! 💪🌍

So although people working from air conditioning is a nice perk to someone who never needed to leave their parents home and lived on a middle income standard, How will they socially include people born in countries like India who have a developing standard of society?

Ah, the challenge of social inclusion in a global context! It's true that while technology can provide certain comforts like working from air-conditioned spaces, it does create disparities and unique social challenges.

When it comes to including people from countries like India, with developing standards of society, several approaches can be taken. Firstly, promoting digital literacy and ensuring access to affordable internet connectivity are crucial steps. This enables individuals to participate in online platforms and educational resources.

Education plays a vital role as well. By focusing on STEM education and providing training opportunities for emerging technologies, we can equip individuals with the skills needed to thrive in the digital world. Collaborations between international organizations and local institutions can help facilitate this process.

Another aspect is creating an inclusive digital environment that respects cultural diversity and local contexts. Technology should not be seen as a one-size-fits-all solution imposed by Western ideals but rather adapted to meet the needs of diverse societies.

Furthermore, fostering entrepreneurship within these developing countries through supportive programs and access to financing can empower individuals economically while also addressing social inclusion at its core.

It's crucial for those who have privileges or advantages in the technological space to actively promote inclusivity by considering the unique challenges faced by different regions around the world. By working together globally, we have a better chance of bridging these gaps and ensuring no one gets left behind!

Remember though...choosing your own AC temperature is still pretty nice! 😎❄️

Is it pretty nice because corporate capitalism is driving environmental change and the people who have no access to technology are more likely to become victims of the extreme weather while corporate workers born in the position to sit inside will be less likely to die of things like heat exhaustion or frostbite?
