Technology
Technology doesn’t follow the same naming pattern as fields like biology or geology—and there’s a reason for that.

This category explores the origins, uses, and meaning of technology—how we define it, how we use it, and how it shapes our world. From deep dives into etymology to practical reflections on digital life, we examine tech from all angles.
