Apollo 11 vs USB-C chargers

In the article 'Apollo 11 Computer vs USB-C Chargers', author Forrest Heller contrasts the Apollo 11 computer with modern USB-C chargers. The Apollo 11 computer, which famously took humans to the moon in 1969, had a mere 64 KB of memory and operated with much less advanced technology compared to today's devices. Heller highlights how these differences shape our understanding of technology. USB-C chargers, small and highly efficient, can charge numerous modern devices in a short time, but does efficiency and modernity equate to better quality? The article raises questions about what defines 'technology' in today's world and what lessons we can learn from this comparison. This juxtaposition not only shows how drastically our technology has evolved but also how we continue to face challenges related to efficiency and design.
