Chapter 6 Andy ClaRK

It's interesting how the internet adapts to us, as if it knows us. For example, when you search something on Google it already has a long lists of possible things that you would probably past searches that may simplify what you're looking for. I think this is for people who are not used to using the internet, or who do not use it regularly, to simplify things for them. I think it's also potentially dangereous that computers know us and adapt to us so well because the idea of a computer knowing your information that could be tracked could be a doorway for thieves to steal from you or identity theft. I think the way we rely on the internet too much could be bad in the long run.

Introduction to Unix Lab 5

The lab on unix and shells was interesting because it brought up the day I was born which was nice to know. Four important commands that I learned for Unix was cal (calendar), whoami (displays user name), finger (displays information about someone else on a computer), and chsh (to change shell). I think whoami and finger commands have Windows counterparts.

CSS

The css lab is a nice simpler way to link things to your html file. It makes changing your webpage quicker and more efficient.

Modeling The World

I never knew thought that people could make everything a mathematical code. When I look at a physical object, such as a computer, it is hard for me to think of it as a mathematical equation or as a symbol like the plant symbols. Also, I thought it was interesting how the Fibonacci sequence applies to so many physical objects in the world, such as flowers and seashells.
