Moose, Monsters, and Peanut Butter: the connecting link
Video Assignment #1 So I might have gone a little of the beaten path with this assignment, but blame Bob Ross. As things began to move away from the source material, my only thought was āLetās get a little crazy,ā which is something a very smart man said. That really is what this assignment turned [ā¦] -

No Construction Traffic
January 18, 2022. I don't think there will be any traffic across this field. It's literally piles of dirt covered by the foot of snow we got yesterday. Maybe it was meant to be put on the other side, where there's actually a road leading into a residen... -

BlockChain Shcmock Chain -TDC

Whatās the big deal ā Privacy on the Web
I was particularly interested in this web assignment because I love technology! For the first half of the work, I was asked to count the number of open-source programs on my computer. I am a Computer science major, and I am also studying cybersecurity. The laptop I use for my daily tasks has Ubuntu Linux for its operating system. As a result, most of my programs are open source. However, I think the author of this assignment may be confused as to what the opposite type of program is called. Closed source software means that a company or individual doesā¦ -
