"The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours -- it is an amazing journey -- and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins." -- B Moawad, author

Hi,

There are hidden codes that we don't notice. They make life easy. Built into the platforms and apps that control our lives.

Working away in the background.

Invisible tech has become so embedded in our lives that we take it for granted. Don't see their footprints.

They are the mathematical instructions for solving problems or performing a task in the codes of software. Their name? Algorithms.

We perform searches, check out our Facebook stream and watch YouTube videos without much conscious thought to what is happening behind the scenes or how that content showed up.

Cars are summoned to our front door with an app. Certain friends updates show up in your Facebook stream. Books are recommended for you.

What are algorithms?

In the past it was only ever discussed in maths classes and lectures. The rise of software and use of technology has brought it more into public consciousness and widespread use.

But we hardly notice them, but what are they?

According to Pewinternet.org "Algorithms are instructions for solving a problem or completing a task. Recipes are algorithms, as are math equations. Computer code is algorithmic. The internet runs on algorithms"

They are the lines of mathematical code that can be your servant….or master.

But there is a key problem with these hidden codes that we often don't talk about.

Have a great week and continue to be awesome.

Cheers
