game design class
In the first quarter of the school year we have gotten to create some projects on different game designing applications. Those included play canvas, ready maker, unity and more. The first project we did was the American pong. It was a great starter projected to kick off the year. At times it was frustrating but once you moved pasted the frustration it was a fairly easy project.I would say the hardest part about quarter one is getting familiar with unity. Although it is a great application it can eat very annoying.
my experience with Sphero!
In class we worked on programing spheros. My program made my sphero spin in a circle a bunch of times stop and go ahead for a little bit. It was really cool being able to program and use the sphero and i have had a few thoughts about possibly buying my own. There are so many different thing you can program the sphero to do and i highly believe you should get one too. To buy your own go to https://sphero.com/
Cyber security
OverviewAlthough the worm had been released on July 13, the largest group of infected computers was seen on July 19, 2001. Around 359,000 people were infected by the Code Red worm. Their goal was to find vulnerability in people. Code red is a Chinese software worm made to mess up computers.
How and How to PreventCode red was supposed to do damage by defacing Web pages and by denying access to a specific Web site by sending it massive amounts of data, which essentially would shut it down. This is known as a dos attack. You can prevent this by not clicking on untrustworthy sites.
Data SpecificsIt attacked computers running Microsoft's IIS web server. A worm can be transferred by usb, websites, and email. Once it’s on your computer you are not in a good position.

cyber security paragraph
I learned a lot about cyber security and its going to help me so much the rest of my life. I will now be very aware about what I click when I'm sent emails or any other links I'm sent. Once you click that link you are in danger of an immediate hack. I will be sure not to use the same password for everything and put 2 factor authentication on everything I can to keep my things secured.
My Experience With PHOTOPEA!!!
In the website Photopea we were able to edit as well as take things out of images. I started off by finding an image online and easily putting it into Photopea. I took an image of Captain America and simply just took off of his head. I evened the background to make it seem as if the head wasn't even there from the start. There are different tools based on what you want to do. I used one tool to take off his head and another tool to make the background behind his head even so it didn't look blurry. It was a very fun and also funny thing to create. In the future I could see myself using Photopea again to edit images. For a very unexperienced editor this website made me feel like a pro. It was easy to follow and all around a great website where you can edit and have fun!
