Driverless cars might follow the rules of the road, but what about the language of driving? Many automobile companies have produced or have made concepts of self-driving cars. Some companies include Tesla, Ford, BMW, Mercedes, etc. Self-driving cars became popular in late 2015. It took the world by storm. People were amazed how cars would be able to drive by themselves in many ways. If a person is traveling by themselves, and need some rest, they can because of the car. It a very good necessity and companies try to make these types of cars to gain profits and publicity. But self-driving cars could malfunction poorly. It can have hardware problems leading to accidents or the car breaking down and stop working.  In the article, "  Driverless cars might follow the rules of the road, but  what about the language of driving?" It talks about how self-driving cars are good, but also how the car can be bad compared to people driving the car itself. In the ar...

        CHS Student Wins Congressional App Challenge for California’s 52nd District An application program (App) is a computer program designed to perform a group of coordinated functions, tasks, or activities for the benefit of the user. Many people use apps on different devices. Apps are beneficial in people's lives for different reasons. Many people think that creating an app is difficult depending on the purpose of the app itself. But that might not be the case for other people. Their are many easier methods that can be used to create these apps. People in different age ranges could create an app.  In the article, "CHS Students Win Congressional App Challenge for California's 52nd District" it talks about how students in California have won a contest that required to create an app using their coding and computer science skills. The  article stated the following, " The  Congressional App Challenge  aims to engage students ...

    Researchers Compute Their Way to the Centre of the Earth Us humans live on Planet Earth. The planet is made up of 4 different layers. Those layers include: the curst, the mantle, outer core, and inner core. Not that many people have attempted to even go through the center of the earth; it's a very long pathway. The closest a human has ever gotten to the center of the earth was in the 1980s when a  Russian-project in the far north Kola Peninsula reached 12 km into the earth's crust. We haven't gotten that far to the center of the earth. In a article titled, " Researchers Compute Their Way to the Centre of the Earth " it talks about how researchers have been able to  compute their way very slowly day by day into the center of the earth. The following article stated, " Multi-disciplinary research team uses theory and experiment on its journey to understand material and geologic processes in high pressure and temperature conditions. In order to mor...

Millions of people around the world use different websites and apps. Almost all of the programs needs accounts for their users, and these accounts usually include: name, email address, phone number, username and password. But do you think that the information that you included are secure? In my opinion, I don't think that our personal information is secured because the government will have access to you information. And besides the government knowing your private information, the owners and creators of these applications would also have access to you private information.

            Computer scientists develop a simple tool to tell if websites suffered a data breach Facebook has approximately over 2.07 billion users. Twitter has approximately over 330 million users. Many people around the world use websites for many different websites. But not all websites have a good security wall. Some websites that have been hacked in the past include: Uber in 2017, when it got hacked for $57 million. Ebay in 2013, when it got hacked for $145 million. Some websites have even got hacked more than once, or even on multiple occasions. One example is Yahoo in 2013 for $500 million, and when it got hacked in 2014 for $3 billion. So you kind of understand the concept of what I trying to say. In an article called "Computer scientists develop a simple tool to tell if websites suffered a data breach" it talks about how computer scientists have created a tool to see if a website has been breached in the past. " Computer scientists have bu...

A few weeks ago, my class and I did a a lab. The objective of this lab was to incorporate all of the skills that we learned about CSS into one webpage. We included internal and external CSS, and many other things we've learned about CSS into one. The application that I used to create this lab was Adobe Dreamweaver CC 2017. What we first did in this was we had to select any body of text where we could perform the lab on. Then we used inline CSS as well as internal CSS on the text. This included the font color and style, etc. Then we used external CSS on the text, which included background color and the font size and border, etc. One of the hardest parts of what I found while doing this lab was trying to make sure all the code matched up correctly because when you're trying to input all of these components into one, you have to make sure there's no errors. Like even if there's a missing "closing" tag, the whole entire webpage would be different or won't even...

On Saturday, December 2, I attended my first ever hackathon. What a hackathon is,  it is a  design sprint-like event in which  computer programmers  and others involved in  software development , including  graphic designers ,  interface designers ,  project managers , and others, often including subject-matter-experts, collaborate intensively on  software  projects. The goal of a hackathon is to create usable software. Hackathons tend to have a specific focus, which can include the  programming language  used, the  operating system , an application, an  API , or the subject and the demographic group of the programmers. In other cases, there is no restriction on the type of software being created. The one that I went to, had a specific theme: Society Safety. What I did was my group and I had to create an app that would be able to make communities safer. Overall it was a fun event and good experience to practice code ...
