During the last days of summer, whenever the thought of school came to mind, I experienced this sinking feeling in my stomach; dread. Dread for the return of, homework, early mornings, and most importantly, responsibility. But I always find that after a few days in school, I become used to this routine I've familiarized myself with for the past 14 years.]]> 2017-08-18 16:06:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mariaan_358019/71u5aa3wvgyc/wish/181649741 Provide an example of a question that could NOT be answered with a binary message. Explain why this is the case, making reference to the definition of a binary message. mariaan_358019 https://padlet.com/mariaan_358019/71u5aa3wvgyc/wish/181903661 A question that can't be answered with a binary question is "what are you having for lunch today?"

Should websites like these be censored by parents? Why or why not? State your position and support it with speciļ¬c reasons and examples. mariaan_358019 https://padlet.com/mariaan_358019/71u5aa3wvgyc/wish/182836052 No. Censorship does nothing but bar youth from what they already know. As for the kids who don't know anything, they are bound to find out one way or another. Additionally, if you censor websites, you're just going to be raising a sheltered child who won't understand reality.]]> 2017-08-25 15:52:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mariaan_358019/71u5aa3wvgyc/wish/182836052 This is your rant space. Take the time to rant about a new or old technology that has inconvenienced you in some way or that you feel has a negative impact on society. Go to town! mariaan_358019 https://padlet.com/mariaan_358019/71u5aa3wvgyc/wish/183154452 I hate that they removed the headphone jack from the iphone 7. I either have to charge my phone or listen to music and can't do them both at the same time if I wanted to save money; if I didn't do that, I'd have to buy Bluetooth headphones which is just a huge waste of money. Removing the headphone jack is also such a blatant way of money making, too. Like couldn't you guys at least try to pretend that it wasn't for the money?]]> 2017-08-28 15:49:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mariaan_358019/71u5aa3wvgyc/wish/183154452 Why is digital data represented in computers in binary? mariaan_358019 https://padlet.com/mariaan_358019/71u5aa3wvgyc/wish/183451016 It's easier for computers and can be represented in a multitude of ways thanks to binary. Although it may be harder for people to read binary, computers won't have trouble decrypting the data.]]> 2017-08-29 16:29:33 UTC https://padlet.com/mariaan_358019/71u5aa3wvgyc/wish/183451016 When you enter a web address in a browser and hit enter, what happens?
