technopolis

1)A metropolis that is littered with high technology like computers and robotics to the point it becomes part of the city's culture and/or religion.

(Today's cities only display the early stages of this phenomenon in the form of large TV screens, lights, people with robotic prosthetic limbs and various other technolgies.)

2) A technopolis is a city where robots and cyborgs are so commonplace that complex computers, robotic parts and artificial intelligence programs can be seen in trash bins and/or are sold freely on the street.

3)A common setting in science fiction stories.
Tokyo may become a technopolis in the future (if it isn't already).

Any 'Future Tokyo' in an anime likely IS a technopolis.

technopath

a person with the ability to fix computers and related devices without touching them.
I called Roberta to fix my computer. The computer was completely frozen and nothing I did worked to fix it. She walked into my room, and as she came within a foot of the computer, it miraculously started working perfectly again. She is an amazing technopath, and I have seen these technopathic skills displayed by her over and over again.

technopolitical

Based on or motivated by partisan or self-serving objectives when it comes to choosing a technology to implement a solution (rather than using sound business justification in terms of return on investment or overall fit within an organization).
It's strange, but it sounds like it was a technopolitical decision for management go with PHP even though all our other systems are ColdFusion.
