Why did computers not have an impact on everyday life in the 1950s?

History

k0ka [10]3 years ago

Computers didn't have an impact on everyday life in the 1950s because they were too large and expensive for personal use.

Before the introduction of the microprocessor in the early 1970s, computers were generally large and expensive systems owned by large corporations, universities, government agencies, and similarly sized institutions. The end users generally did not interact directly with the machine, but rather prepared tasks for the computer, in off-line equipment such as card punches. Several assignments for the computer would be collected and processed in batches. After the work was over, users could pick up the results. In some cases it could take hours or days between submitting a job to the computer center and receiving the output.

The new Japanese constitution after world warll contained a clause that
Stella [2.4K]

The constitution provides for a parliamentary system of government and guarantees certain fundamental rights. Under its terms the Emperor of Japan is "the symbol of the State and of the unity of the people" and exercises a purely ceremonial role without the possession of sovereignty.

The constitution, also known as the "Post-war Constitution" <span>(戦後憲法, Sengo-Kenpō?)</span> or the "Peace Constitution" <span>(平和憲法, Heiwa-Kenpō?)</span>, is best known for its Article 9, by which Japan renounces its right to wage war; and to a lesser extent, the provision for de jure popular sovereignty in conjunction with the monarchy.

The constitution was drawn up under the Allied occupation that followed World War II and was intended to replace Japan's previous militaristic and system of quasi-absolute monarchy with a form of liberal democracy. No amendment has been made to it since its adoption.<span>[1]</span>

The Tea Act of 1773 allowed the British East India company to charge whatever it wished for tea.
vesna_86 [32]
This is true;
this effect was achieved indirectly, by letting the company ship the tea to the Northern American ports, and the effect was a virtual monopoly on tea there, which allowed them to charge whatever they wanted.
