[LEARNED] Controlling Search Results

Google features many search commands, and here are the following commands I have known before todays class :

Search "super mario bros" : Click on the animated coin block shown on the right hand corner of the screen. Click on it to make the block bounce up shoot coins just like from the original game.

Search "do a barrel roll" : The Google website will turn around.

On Google Images, search "atari breakout" : You can play the good old game of Atari Breakout.

Check out for more commands here

The commands that I have pointed out above is used for fun. However, in todays class, I have learned about "useful" Google Search commands. The "useful" Google Search commands will help you organize the search results by actually making the number of search results fewer. These are the following I have picked up from a documentation from class.

Site:url

Filetype:key / ppt etc
“Exact phrase”
-exclude
Related:url
Define: word
word* (complete)
Word * (word and another word)
Reverse image search (Google Images)

On todays class, I have learned an important point about handling massive data searchers like Google :

"Data can be reliable depending on the way you use it, and to find the correct data to use, organising is the best solution."

[IDEAS] Two Types of Slide Designs

I believe that there are two types of designs for slideshows. The first design, is based on making each slide simple with images and minimum text. This method gives the viewers static image on what the speaker is talking about. The second design method I use is the "Material UI Design". Since it is a UI design, the whole design interacts to the users with geometrical and photographic elements animated and placed according to a layout. (the layout guidelines are set by Google). For example, if you were to tell a user about a new feature, this is what Material UI Design will solve the task: https://storage.googleapis.com/material-design/publish/material_v_12/assets/0B4kv-3uZbS1qQVhNbFlVdlNsOEE/engagement-featurediscovery-single-flow.mp4

[IDEAS] To have the Good Days, you need the Bad Days

I think everyone has gone through some kind of a problem or conflict in their lives, from physical to mental issues. I have had many mental issues in my life, such as feeling the loneliness or having a nightmare about an alien invasion (literally). People suffer and have negative times of their life because of these conflicts. However, if we look at the people who actually succeeded in a tremendous pace, they use the "conflicts" for their benefits. There is a taco restaurant that was robbed by robbers caught on camera. Most of the restaurant owners at this situation would most likely call for the police. However, the owner of the taco restaurant. Made a parody of making "robbers searching for delicious tacos for late-night snack". There are so much more successful actions just like this example. They inspired the way of my life. As a application and web service developer myself, I would like to turn the bad days of my life to inspire myself to help the pe...
