The group project is going well. I’m just having a hard time understanding the topic because it was changed last week and i wasn’t in class. I’m contribution to this paper now has been proven difficult because I’m trying to find cons and solutions to a topic that is very tough subject and to think about real solutions that haven’t been already thought takes time, so far i only have one solution but it is not enough for the required length of the paper. But we are communicating well as a group

i’ve spent most of my time laying out my outline to structure my paper in an effective manor. i’ve only just started writing the actual paper but i’m starting to remember how much i despised embedding pictures into word because it never attaches the way you wanted it to. im kind of stressed out about this paper because i have another 2000 word paper both due at the same time and a few projects due after spring break so i’m trying to find away to prioritize my works. if it was up to me i would rather not have the break so we dont get that excuse from professors about having all this time to work.

I’ve started working on an outline of my paper and trying to structure my paper. also working on another paper trying to compare two poems with a relating topic and this has been proven to be a little difficult trying to find the two poems and making an outline on how to compare the two poems in 1200 words.

i felt project 2 was a little easier than project 1. for me it gave me an reason to do more research on a topic im not well aware of and gave me more incite on the world to come of online currency.

The assignment was fairly normal assignment, I think i found myself kind of personalizing a little bit which i have to correct and not enough citing to the or calling back to the writers when stating something in my paper. I think most of my errors are just minor ones that can be corrected easily. I did find the assignment very constraining because of only being able to use one article.

When reading the article i felt like the articles experiments where pointless. I felt like most of the studies conducted had no meaningful feedback. a lot of it was tricking students by lying to them and trying to trick them.

the reading based on the AI meeting on if the advancement of AI in some what damage our future in some sort of robotic over through was a little absurd. but the concern of the economy i felt was very real and very prominent in the near future. over the years it seems like there is another  job that can  be replaced b a robot. in my mind that’s why i felt the need to be a programmer, i like to think programming will be the last and maybe only job lift by humans in my sick idea of the future but technology seems like it ages faster than humans its hard to predict what will happen. Elon musk was once ask in an interview how he feels about basically inviting a car that can eliminate thousands of jobs. he proposed an idea on where basically when robots have taken over the work force, he wants the entire world to be on a fixed income. no more one percent, everyone is equal. i cant say i would agree but i think its a possibility. the other reading  i found was extremely interesting, i was overwhelmed by the length once i started reading it i felt it was over. i still cant believe i never head of a man like this.

the story a sound of thunder was a interesting story where it seems like a sort of Jurassic park type of environment. i felt that the reader did a great job describing the environment of the hunting grounds to get a better feel for what the man is going through. i enjoyed this concept because when i was younger i would go hunting with family, this is kind of like my dream to go hunting dinosaurs. the story also reflected on something like a political view which i think kind of relates to the current light of politics.

all the zombies was a story that i have seen in the movie predestination. before this i was not aware that the movie was based on a story. this story is very heavy into time traveling and trying to follow on the timeline of the story is kind of hard but reading it over a few times i was able to follow it. its a story i found mind blowing when you find out the twist at the end of the story when you realize both characters are the same person. this is one of my favorite stories by far.

My name is Paul Birkleund. I’m a Computer System Technology major perusing a degree in software engineering. I personally wanted to take this course because I wanted to enhance my writing ability’s. I felt like my writing/grammar could use some work.
