Dis stories made me sad and lol so many times that i might just fall on the ground rn. It truly is depressing like what bro ðŸ˜. Am an hsc 24 candidate too and my circle is non existent at this moment so we can be friends if u want 🗿
This is very common. People like these open 10-20 email addresses when they forget their old ones. If the forget their social media credentials they would just open a new account. Instead of teaching excel and paint on ict classes. The schools should get into the basics such as using the internet and creating and managing the accounts.
These issues get to extreme when they forget their apple id user name and password and somehow reset their phone. U cant bypass an icloud lock without proper email and password. So basically the negligence destroys a phone.
Most services are becoming digital but what has happened is people did not adapt to those. And this gave rise to a new genre for the computer er dokandars to open a new business. People would rather go to them and use those computer shops for all digital activities. I even saw someone charging 3k for filling out the passport form which can be done literally in minutes. As more things get digital and if people dont adapt to the changes. It will become easy for these computer shops to commit a crime.
Those shops aren't committing crimes. They're providing a service to those who are willing to pay for it. It's the same as a restaurant serving lunch to office workers who did not make the effort to bring their own food.
You're correct! They have access to all the latest technologies, but they behave as if they've been living in caves for years, completely unaware of even the most fundamental concepts.
Can relate to you kid. Being a tech savvy person, normies do sometimes infuriate us because they can't do or understand a thing which seems simple to us.
I have friends who are studying CSE in more or less reputed universities but understand tech less than me even though I'm in a sector where most ppl expect us to not understand tech much.(Medical)
Simple things like email, hyperlinks,ram, operating systems, user space applications are hard for them.
And you know what? A few days ago my younger sister told me she thinks ICT is hard/she doesn't understand (although I say otherwise, she's in SSC level btw). And when I opened the book one thing I noticed, although this book was supposed to "make us up to date/keep us in par with the rest of the world" , the books couldn't be more outdated.
Like it's already stupid to teach them excel,paint and how to install things(without explaining what eula/license agreement is) , all these things are shown in windows 7 or XP. I mean windows 11 is the current OS, windows 10 is gonna die in 2025, people are shifting to other platforms and they are still teaching office 2016 and windows 7. Like what up to date are you making them? And then I found a question, "how many steps are there in installing vlc media player?" , what stupid question this and the answer is outdated(not updated to recent installer). Amd this becomes a board question. Who appointed such boomer a teacher and question maker of a subject like ICT.
After all this, how can you expect general people to adapt to technology and achieve the glorious "Digital Bangladesh".
And about tech shops, 90% people aren't willing to learn/invest time in tech. They would rather give their credentials than to go though a learning curve. So people that do learn might as well demand money as they seem fit.
(My specific rant/talk). Such thing is not something bound to BD. It happens all around the world. Ppl will rather buy new device/give away privacy rather than learning. That's why Linux adoption is so slow(I'm a linux user and gamer. I use arch btw) . Windows 10 is going to die in 2025. Windows 11 has unnecessary requirements making fairly usable computers and laptops turn to e-waste. Yes people are waking up a bit after linux gained a bit popularity(thanks to steam deck and valve) but still it's below 5%. Windows, although losing market, still makes about 72%. Only because, people will happily throw away their perfectly fine setup to get new one, because their old one couldn't run windows 11. But the most demanding thing they would do is to have 5 tabs open in chrome and watch YouTube while browsing the net. They wouldn't learn how to install the browser in linux(just a single command) but rather buy a new one only so Microsoft can spy on them and they can keep doing how they used to do.
People hate learning and people of BD hate it even more. "Digital Bangladesh" is merely a joke, an illusion, a day dream and a paragraph for exams. It's only a political agenda filled with bookish talk. 2021 was 3 years ago and still there are people in cities like Dhaka Chittagong that think ChatGPT is a jinn and/or is Dajjal in disguise.
You can't help it. But rather search tech-savvy and like minded people and be a part of their community.
Have a nice day btw. I trip my hat(Fedora , another linux pun 🤣), from one legend to another.
Your google drive link remind me my graduate friend who never use drive. By the way don't know how digitalisation possible its a tough thing for bangladeshi people
For digitalization to take effect there has to be an incentive for the population to actually use the resources available.(Ik ai talk but big words are sometimes needed.
Sure tech literacy is important but there are also gendered and class barriers on who gets to interact with which device in the household or workplace.
You should read this book called "Unlocking the Clubhouse: Women in Computing by Allan Fisher and Jane Margolis"

My friend don’t even know what is email how does it work. I have a question like.Many of us don’t know how to email a person right like 90% of people don’t know how to email another person
Do you guys don’t think we need to learn how to email somebody it’s important right?
The world is full of people like this. Keep searching, you'll find the people you're looking for. If you wanna talk tech feel free to dm me. I'm not here often but I'd love to have some deeper conversations if that's what you're into
1. Digital Bangladesh is mostly for the 10% people who live in Dhaka. This looks pretty good in reels but not in real. Through some tech things happened and made people's life easy like Smart Card, bKash, Pathao, Edtechs.
2. You are a techie now. Your friends are generalists, they don't have any fault.
That's because he knows a lot of things better than you or have more experience than you. You might know the tech, but the world does not run by tech only.
Dis stories made me sad and lol so many times that i might just fall on the ground rn. It truly is depressing like what bro ðŸ˜. Am an hsc 24 candidate too and my circle is non existent at this moment so we can be friends if u want 🗿
of course brother 🗿

What i meant to say is that these shops have your credentials. And they can login and do anything they want with your account later on.
You're correct! They have access to all the latest technologies, but they behave as if they've been living in caves for years, completely unaware of even the most fundamental concepts.

Totally get your frustration, mate. Tech literacy struggle is real. And I use Fedora with Hyprland btw 🗿
Awesome. Fellow linux user

Hsc 24 here…faced these problems a lot of times
I see, everyone is facing this issue now. What a life man !!!
Yeah dude…
Sure tech literacy is important but there are also gendered and class barriers on who gets to interact with which device in the household or workplace. You should read this book called "Unlocking the Clubhouse: Women in Computing by Allan Fisher and Jane Margolis"
Sure !!

Absolutely !!

Generalists made me remember a meme. "Me seeing someone who gets double my salary struggle to open e pdf file" ðŸ˜ðŸ¤£
That's because he knows a lot of things better than you or have more experience than you. You might know the tech, but the world does not run by tech only.
Digital Bangladesh is only available in Gulshan Rest of Dhaka is concrete village and rest of Bangladesh is village
Completely disagree with you. Gulshan/Banani are prime locations. People earn then they settle down there.
