    1. ive? Comedian Impersonates FBI on Twitter, Makes MLK Assassination Joke. January 2020

      For the summary of this link: it is talks about On Martin Luther King Jr. Day in 2020, comedian Jaboukie Young White changed his Twitter profile picture and name to "FBI" and posted a satirical tweet. It is not first time he did such "joke". The detail of this journalist Jake Tapper's clues to remind readers of what did FBI do to MLK and to let readers themselves to decide whether it is joke or not. However, on my personal perspective, I think it is not ok for everyone making joke on a dead people, and MLK was a person who has had a great impact in the past. So this guys definitely know the posts can bring online popularity to him, so I don't think it is just a funny joke.

    1. g Powerful: Trolling sometimes

      I really understand the interpretation of troll, cause nowadays we can find troll on many social media app. At first, I don't know why there are so many troll, but now I realized maybe they are just want to. Maybe show they are really smart and know beyond than others, but actually they just posts a troll. Or maybe they just want other people pay more attention on them and transfer the focus points. I think those kinds of people, they might just cannot get attention from others in reality so they will find a presence online. But now I know that maybe it just want to punish or stop. It brings a new idea for me, maybe next time I can focus on those points.

    1. Early in the days of YouTube, one YouTube channel (lonelygirl15 [f1]) started to release vlogs (video web logs) consisting of a girl in her room giving updates on the mundane dramas of her life. But as the channel continued posting videos and gaining popularity, viewers started to question if the events being told in the vlogs were true stories, or if they were fictional. Eventually, users discovered that it was a fictional show, and the girl giving the updates was an actress.

      Now in the social media there are many influencer sustain their fake persona. For example, they might be fake couple, fake job. Or sometimes when they want to sell their product, they will make fake video to shows how good the products are, but the true thing is the products aren't that good, they all want is for money. However, some influencer will make short drama video online, I think it is ok, because if they told everyone first, then people will just watch it as a drama. But if you want to sell some products and make fake video, I think that is pretty bad. So when facing the video online, we should be careful.

    1. Conspiracy Theories Abo

      In this passage it talks about back into 19th century's America, the communication was no well developed yet, the information may ambiguity and lag. In this way, the environment was very suitable for conspiracy theories. People might use conspiracy theories in political parties and attack opponents, and affect voters. One of the detail example is conspiratorial rhetoric in presidential campaigns, and use this way to increase thee voting base.

    1. One of the early ways of social communication across the internet was with Email [e5], which originated in the 1960s and 1970s. These allowed people to send messages to each other, and look up if any new messages had been sent to them.

      As for me, since I am a Chinese student, in China people usually don't use email for daily or work communication. Sometimes people will use email for work, but it is just very less often compare with WeChat or DingDing. Chinese people usually use app to send message to others, it is faster and more convenience for people. I think in US, using email to send message between student and professor sometime is time consuming and I don't know whether or not they receive the message.

    1. W3Schools. Python Sets. URL:

      In those W3School, it all include how to use lists, tuples, sets in python. I choose the sets one, which said that A set is a collection which is unordered, unchangeable*, and unindexed. And do not allow duplicate values. Which I learned in class is un-mutable. It can used with dictionary, and clean data in order to have no repeat data. One of the detail in this reference is You can also use len() to check how long is this set. In the set it can contain different data type like string, int or True or False.

    1. So all data that you might find is a simplification. There are many seemingly simple questions that in some situations or for some people, have no simple answers, questions like:

      I really agree of what it said, since like in 4.2.3, if we search and turn something into data we might lose some specific details or background of the data. All we want is to let it turn into simple. When I ask the question of what country are I am from, I will answer that I am from China Chongqing, However, I lived Beijing for 13 years, and now I study in Seattle US. I spend more time in places other than Chongqing which is my hometown. If it turn into data, it might just include China. When I answer the question like how many people live in this house, I will said three people. But I will say more about our room like, it is 4b2b, however one of the student just leave and there is no more people come in, so it turn into 3b2b. But the data might just include 3. For the question how many words in this chapter, the data might just include a number, however, as for me I will introduce more content of each parts.

    1. Sarah Jeong. How to Make a Bot That Isn't Racist. Vice, March 2016. URL:

      The detail in this reference that I pick is "“You really have to sit down and think through the consequences,” said Kazemi. “It should go to the core of your design.” it shows to me that sometimes when people are design the bots they just to exclude certain bad words but did not try to let bots itself to self study and understand the deeper logic of paragraph. The summary of this reference is nowadays many people are under value the internet environment and leads bots hat limitation. Moreover, bots needs a better monitor and control standard. Engineer need to think about data, algorithms, and human intervene when they design bots, and think more than just certain race.

    1. Some bots are intended to be helpful, using automation to make tasks easier for others or to provide information, such as:

      I want to share my experience of friendly bots in social media app in China, the application calls Weibo. The bots can appear to VIP's or hottest posts and comment with his thinking. It will mimic human tone to make funny or sharp comments, and sometimes you will find it very intelligent, able to accurately capture the content of posts and post empathetic comments. But sometimes it cannot accurately catch the true meaning of the post, it only captures superficial statements, so the comments left behind may feel inappropriate. But overall, I think it's a very interesting and friendly bot that deserves further updates and upgrades. Also, now I will use chatgpt everyday, I think it might be a friendly bots. Since it is very powerful and very intelligent, can answer many question and make people's work faster than before.

    1. What changes to Twitter could have changed how this story went?

      I think there are two ways for the stories. The first one is twitter retreat the posts and let all related videos or posts no on the app again in order to reduce the popularity of this news. However, in this way they might not made more money from it. The second one is making this time on the hot search list and push it to more people, making more people click on this post, which can increase the discussion and gain more attention. This way, profits can be made through advertising or other public relations expenses.

    1. Act with unforced actions in harmony with the natural cycles of the universe. Trying to force something to happen will likely backfire. Rejects Confucian focus on ceremonies/rituals. Prefers spontaneity and play. Like how water (soft and yielding), can, over time, cut through rock.

      As a Chinese we learned confucianism a lot but today I want to talk more about Taosim. In Taosim, we cannot only conclude that they choose to spontaneity and play. Taosim is not equal to not doing work, not studying, not working hard, but opposing excessive control. To be yourself (But we cannot violate ethical and legal principles)and compare less in order to have less peer pressure. For confucianism it will be more traditional compare to Taoism.
