  1. Did you code in a language for this assignment? I helped code in HTML for this assignment.
  2. Did you use a standard library? We used bootstrap as the standard library.
  3. Do you understand what Paul Ford meant about coders being angry? It makes sense why coders are angry because of the constant shift of what's important to know constantly changes within programming. I don't program, personally, however the level of security regarding their knowledge is understandable. Even thinking about Silicon Valley and how fast one idea or method can completely overturn the dynamic system in place.
  4. How similar or different do you think Tim Berners-Lee’s original vision for The World-Wide Web is from today’s web? State ways where you think today’s web is better, and today’s web is worse. I believe his original version stays true with respect to allowing anyone with a computer and internet to access information and anyone can also publish information for others to view. However, it has also become a destructive medium by which people with the correct skill set can access information which isn't meant to be publicly available (e.g. SSNs). While the World-Wide Web can offer endless amount of information, it can be difficult to interpret what information is relevant or true and it requires one to understand not everything on the internet can be accepted with 100% certainty.
  5. Out of the four databases you accessed for this assignment (SGD itself, NCBI Gene Database, Ensembl, UniProt), which did you like the best, and why? Which did you like the least, and why? (Refer back to the question about differences in content or presentation that you noted on your gene's web page.) The best database was by far SGD which was created by Stanford University School of Medicine, Genetics Department. SGD had the same information the other databases had, however, the other databases references SGD more than SGD referenced the others. It went as far as providing the percentages of each amino acid in the protein which I thought was stunning and relevant to studying the gene expression. Lastly, the images and sections had were easy to interpret regarding data points and had extensive references to the information if one were to be interested in a certain area.
