Shell script
The scripting languages are funky The tool is always available Learning Shell will be the course in operating systems you never had Sockets Cron jobs file systems Networking When majoring in Computer Science at my alma mater, our CS 4410/5410: Operating Systems course was a requirement.
Along with that, I took the practicum course, CS 4411/5411: Practicum in Operating Systems, which lets you implement sections of an operating system in C.

One day, my manager proposed to me a task that involved backing up a folder located on server that hosts the backend our court’s local instance of CM/ECF. This folder contained JSP (Java Server Pages) file that were used to template out Word documents that can be automatically generated. As multiple types of employees (both technical and non-technical) will be editing these JSP files at anytime, we wanted a way to schedule a backup of the folder.

The process of data transfer between humans is an education optimization and learning problem.

How long do speeches need to be? Is there a drop off of concept retainment for longer speeches?
It is actually good that States have some political freedom and divergence from the federal government. They can act each as independent experiments of policies and laws. Imagine a three dimensional space. Let’s take a vector in this space to represent the type (form, style, shape) of government (policies, branches, administrative function) that the federal government follows.

Existentialism # General Framework
Religion or Philosophy or Nothing?
From physics to Existentialism
Why Existentialism
Sea of endless purposes, but you can pick one
With your picked purpose, a clear path can be made
To move around intellectually one must first pick a general framework to work within. A framework is needed to give your thoughts motivation and relativity compared with others.

Why Math # A true understanding of any system (a system can really represent anything: the United States’ economy, the hydrogen atom in quantum mechanics, a sports game, etc.) must be scientific. When investigating anything, a question of “why” can be asked at any level of the system. If we keep asking why, we will inevitably reach the discipline of physics, where the language is mathematics. To understand is to quantify, and if things are too heuristic or qualitative, we must create a mapping or model to understand.

Nano-science is the study of phenomena and manipulation of materials at atomic, molecular, and macro-molecular scales.
Nano-engineering is the design, characterization, production, and application of nano-science.
Working at the 1 - 100 nanometer scale.
Surfaces and Interfaces plat a major role.
A 10 nm particle has >20% of its atoms on its surface Potential for greater control of chemical reactions Quantum size effects become important.
Material dimensions similar to quantum mechanical wavelengths (quantum dots) Information Processing # What is different from that at the large scale?

My goal in life is to increase human happiness.
This is a quite broad and general goal, something that everyone should be able to get behind.
However, I must admit that the objective reason for this being anyone’s goal is beyond me.
Objective right and wrong, good or bad, moral or immoral comes from ones basic personal beliefs. The only objective fact we have in life is that there is no objective; no true purpose, no true good, no true reason why we are here.

An objects should be based on its raw material inputs and time and energy to create. Capitalism inflates the price of certain things based on location, as it is a limited value, and the supple of that thing.

In a society there will always be people that break the rules. We will leave the discussion of the nature of these rules for later, and focus on how to treat and process the ‘rule breakers’. Lets first start with the trivial solution.
The trivial solution would be that of zero, doing nothing. If the thought of doing nothing to a person who breaks a particular rule seems reasonable, then the rule itself is probably at fault for the illogical solution.

I have tried to start making this.
The concept of creating some type of application, whether that be a website, app, etc., first came through my mind around senior year of high school. The idea of the website ‘wethepeople.com’ at first was going to be site where clear, detailed information about politics, elections, Congress would be easily accessible to all. I wanted summaries of legislature that were going through Congress, outlines of candidates’ polices and ideas, as well as a history of all politician’s past action for an increased amount of accountability.
