Learning Progress Pt.16

The user spent their sixteenth day of learning completing an Access Control lab and writing two Python scripts: a basic TCP port scanner and a word guesser game. They have shifted from using AI-generated project ideas to sourcing them from the internet, and plan to re-learn HTML and learn CSS over the next month before continuing with JavaScript. The session also included starting Algebra 1 on Khan Academy, which took 30-40 minutes due to slow internet, and researching personal tech projects.

Daily learning part sixteen I started today at 15:40. I did an Access Control lab. It took me quite a bit of time, but I completed it. Then I wrote two Python scripts. Most basic TCP port scanner Word guesser(More like a hangman, game in my opinion) My past project ideas were previously given to me by an AI. I requested them because I thought the projects on the internet were too advanced. Now I've started taking ideas from the internet, like the Word guesser I made today. As for JavaScript, I'm not touching it for the moment. Most JavaScript projects also require HTML and CSS. So I need to re-learn HTML in detail and learn CSS over the next month or two, and also finish the entire JavaScript course. Anyway, after the scripts I did another Access Control lab and then started Lesson 1, Unit 2 of Algebra 1 on Khan Academy. The internet at the student residence is pretty slow, so it takes me a long time to load videos and download things. This lesson took about 30-40 minutes. After the video, I did some research on personal tech projects and practiced Ghostbuster. I'm thinking of starting XSS vulnerabilities soon. I'll think of it. “You can always edit a bad page.
