invisible cloak

   To be honest I don't like people. I wouldn't really wanna help them. I would totally mess with them though. i mean i guess i would would change people's grades. Not people who have good grades but ones who aren't doing so great. Since school is really hard for and people and they just want to get it over with.
   Another thing is i would give out free lunch and judt food in general. People don't have a lot of money to buy things so they could go hungry for the day! Why should i let that happen. i refuse. And that would be good enough i think. Those would be my day of an adventurous good citizen.

Devices with feeling: new tech creates buttons and shapes in mid-air




(UltraHaptics technology creats 3D shapes in mid air using forced  ultrasonic Waves)
UltraHaptics is a young company with a big dream: changing the way we interact with electronic devices.
Their technology creates tactile three-dimensional shapes literally out of thin air, using ultrasound. The company's tagline says it all: "Feeling without touching."
Through an emission of sound waves, sensations are projected through the air and to the user.
Changes in air pressure are perceived as suspended tactile surfaces, creating invisible -- but tangible -- interfaces.

Writing Prompt

  I think we should have a piano class. Like the basics it should be able to be a four year course. Not like a complete professional class but a nice little class so kids who actually wanna learn to play and stuff they'd be able to. This class should meet not right after school i think around 4 - 4:30 ish. It should be a good 2 hours long. NOT A LOT OF WRITTEN PAPER WORK! A class where they really focus on the music because a lot now they wanna teach the history of this. In all Honestly no kid actually really cares about that they wanna play and enjoy the class and not regret joining it and are bored to death. I want pictures of the students all over the classroom. i want to see only smiling faces.

  All student should not bring in their own keyboards i believe this class should provide them for the class ones that everyone will use and we can have enough for anyone. Only serious students who actually wanna learn can join this class. Not a kid whos gonna fool around and break the keyboard. I want the kids to be happy. Want them to look forward to coming to this class they should be about 10 minutes early because when the class starts then it starts because we need all the time. Unless they actually tell me when they're going to be late then i wont care. I would always play soft music in the background people tend to learn better with background noise. At the end of each marking perido i would like them to choose a song they have fully learned and play it for me. And sing im not judging on singing im judging the performance.

Could the next moon mission involve a small step for an ape, but a giant leap for all robots?


Image result for robot chimp

With renewed interest in moon exploration -- in particular the remote possibility that deposits of helium-3, believed to be in greater concentration on the moon, could one day power nuclear fusion power plants on Earth -- robots might be the ideal solution, especially to keep the costs down.
And a design from the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (also known as DFKI) in Bremen, Germany, has landed on the chimpanzee as its model for unmanned lunar missions.

WIKI Opinion

  I believe that wiki is a great source to use. I just wouldn't completely trust everything i see on there. As for a research paper i wouldn't use wiki for that. Or if i did it would be very little because even though it's difficult to change its still possible and i wouldn't want to take that risk. Im now more informed about this information and i know when and  when not to use wiki. I found out it's not always wrong and that its one of the top results when you look up a subject.

Reflection

I agree with everything these people are saying. We must start to inform younger generations now and even the older one. Everyone basically lives off social media and half the the time they don't think before they do. If something bad was posted and people get in fights over it the other deletes it n just believes its fine but its not.  Jobs, colleges could all still access all these information. One mistake could ruin your future or even your life now. I think all schools shouldn't have like meetings about it, but they should have all students do a paper on this a two - three page paper. About why you should watch what you post and what the consequences will be. When they're fully educated about it then maybe these people will think twice about what they do then next time.
