How can a 14 year old boy grab headlines and become a Silicon Valley hero?
as a technology media worker, I expected that the headlines at home and abroad must not be iOS 9. I had deleted some of the applications (do not discriminate against 16GB) last night Household), prepare for the new system. But when I opened the reader this morning, I found the reality of this: the young man named Ahmed Mohamed, 14, a robot and electronic engineering enthusiast, and a Muslim. On Monday, according to the American media, he went to school as often as usual, with a self-made electronic alarm clock as a result of the science course. Unexpectedly, he waited for him to inquire and detain the police on the grounds of "bomb threat".
teenager, who are you? And what did he redefine?
Mohamed's teacher did not praise him for ingenuity, but thought that the alarm clock he made was probably a bomb. Mohamed only told everyone he was doing an alarm clock, but the police said he would still prosecute him with a self made prank bomb. Although the misunderstanding has been lifted, it has caused a great uproar. Some people call the police suspicious because he is a Muslim. This is a serious racial discrimination.
luckily the world began to support Mohamed, and he became a new hero of Silicon Valley. US President Obama pushed to show that he wanted to "test for himself". He called the alarm clock cool and brought it to the White House.
Facebook CEO Zuckerberg said that the creation technology and passion should be praised, rather than arrest, "people in the future like Mohamed," and, by the way, like Obama, invited him to play in Facebook.
president and technology giants are hard enough to choose, but NASA also has to add one foot. When Mohamed was arrested, he wore a NASA Sweatshirt (below), and astronaut Chris Hadfield saw that they could come to their science show. The tickets were ready!
Google science exhibition said that Mohamed has been reserved, so that the alarm clock can be used to play.
Marc Andreessen, founder of Silicon Valley's well-known venture capitalist A16Z, spit out a slot: "look at my potato, is it very much like grenade?" After
Mohamed was released, it expressed his gratitude to supporters on Twitter and called on everyone to oppose racial inequality and not let the same thing happen again.
, while technology companies should take practical action when borrowing marketing? Technology companies, women and minorities, have been blamed for a long time. Will the Mohamed incident be a turning point?
