honestly smartphones as a platform (android, ios) are the antithesis of technology as i know it
they're only made for consumption of corpo content, they do not allow the user to explore, tinker, learn. if all you have is a phone, you cannot learn it's workings, you cannot learn how to create new applications for it, you can only *consume* what is already made for you
if you want to create something new, to learn how your device work, you better be able to afford a separate, often more expensive computer, to do that. you can't? outta luck kiddo
