IT117: Website Development

Templates are a great way to reduce repetition and standardize a task. In website design, many websites can have the same base style, and in that case a template offers a solid foundation. This can be particularly valuable if you have achieved success with a certain style in the past. Another great application for a template in web design is to focus a group of people on a common vision. Consider a customer having specific requirements for their design and you would like to collaborate amongst multiple people. Using a template in this case keeps the group focused on the customers wants. However, in that same regard, using a template limits creativity by reducing the artistic freedom of the designer. Templates also have the ability to breed complacency in my opinion. If the same template is continually used, the designers may forget the tasks they are not doing frequently because of the automation the template provides.

Class,

In logging into the web file server for the first time was straightforward for me. I didn’t notice any issues both days that I accessed it. Since my first login I saved my login information on my personal device to speed up the process. I did not delete my email though. I will keep that in a safe place in case of emergencies.

To me although it’s controlled through the web browser, it’s the same as using your file explorer on Windows operating system (OS). The web server seemed very upfront and intuitive. I did not have an issue uploading in either manner of drag and drop, or the browse by folder selection.

Now, given that it is controlled through the web browser and not your local machine you do need to remember to refresh. If you want an updated look at the information that is there this is required. The page will automatically do so when you add items or jump to another folder. If you happen to sit on the site long enough it won’t do it on its own. This isn’t really an issue, but I noticed it when I changed out my file from the seminar the other night. I hovered over the blue icon next the yellow one and the file which gives the time that is was last changed. This hadn’t changed from when I did it which showed “has been changed 0 min ago.”

Did anyone else notice this like I did?

V/R,

Micah

The three most popular features I found for Windows 10 are:

Start menu

This feature allows you to access all of your programs from the click of a button. there is also a search bar from the menu that you can use to search through your programs in real-time. You also have access to your power options. It also allows you to customize widgets on the menu so you can see news feeds whenever you click on it.

Cortana integration

Cortana has been integrated into windows 10 which allows you to search for programs, media, or pretty much anything that’s on your hard drive just by speaking. You can also use it to send email while you are working on something else. Of course this requires that your CPU has a microphone connected.

Virtual Desktops

This feature allows you to view all of your screens at once allowing you to quickly switch between your various programs. It also allows you to see how many programs you have running at a glance.

The first popular feature in Windows 10 that improves my daily routine is the start menu. Presently, when you tap on the Start catch at the base left of the screen, you get two boards next to each other, with the left section indicating stuck, as of late and most-utilized applications. You additionally get a power catch at the best for alternatives, for example, Hibernate, Standby and Shutdown, and an all applications choice a la Windows 8. The correct section includes a choice of live tiles that you can redo, resize and rearrange. That, as well as the inquiry field at the base will investigate related Internet results notwithstanding projects and documents. I can now have the Start Menu extend to full screen at whatever point I need, taking out the requirement for a Modern UI Start Screen. This makes my start menu and my desk top much more organized to suit my basic needs.

The second popular feature that improves my daily routine is Cortana. Windows 10 brought Microsoft’s voice-controlled advanced right-hand Cortana to my personal computer, to make it simpler for me to interface with my gadget without lifting a finger. I now have the capacity to scan my hard drive for records, pull up photographs from dates, or dispatch PowerPoint introductions just by advising my PC to do as such. I can even get Cortana to send an email while I’m chipping away at a spreadsheet, making performing various tasks substantially simpler.

Lastly, the third popular feature that could improve my daily routine is You Can Now Add Multiple Desktops. Another Multiple Desktops highlight gives you a chance to run another arrangement of windows as though on another screen, however without the physical screen. This will allow you to deal with your large number of open windows and applications. Rather than having various windows open over one another on one work area, you can set up an entire other virtual work area for those projects to dwell in. Set up one particularly for home and leave your applications, for example, Netflix and Amazon open, and make another work area for work on which you keep Word, Excel and Internet Explorer open.

With the new work areas comes another approach to monitor your open applications on Windows 10. On the new working framework, you can either hit the new Task View catch on the errand banish or swipe in from the left edge of the screen to pull up a one-site hit of all your open applications and documents. It’s very little unique in relation to utilizing the Alt-Tab blend alternate route on your console, yet this displays an advantageous path for you to get a review of what’s running.

I’m studying and need help with a Business Law question to help me learn.

Doing the Data Breach Lawsuit

Facts

An infidelity website, Madison Ashley and its parent company, have been sued in federal court by a man who claims that the companies failed to adequately protect clients’ personal and financial information from theft, saying he suffered emotional distress.

The lawsuit accuses Madison Ashley (MA) and parent company of negligence and invasion of privacy, as well as causing emotional distress. The lawsuit follows a breach of the Madison Ashley website by a group called the Impact Team, which downloaded “highly sensitive personal, financial, and identifying information of the website’s 37 million users.

The lawsuit follows a breach of the MA website by a group called the Impact Team which had threatened to publish the “stolen personal information” if the MA website was not shut down. This information included millions of email addresses for U.S. Government officials, UK civil servants and high-level executives at European and North American corporations.

At Trial

The Plaintiff argues that the data breach could have been avoided if the company had taken “necessary and reasonable precautions to protect its users’ information”. MA knew of several technical issues that could had led to a data breach but did nothing. The defense argues that their damages must be proven and, as there is no indication of credit card fraud or illegal use of the information, there is no basis for the case. Additionally, their website contains this sentence “We cannot ensure the security or privacy of information you provide through the Internet.”

Questions

1. Do individuals who subscribe to and visit this site have a reasonable expectation of privacy? Why or why not?
2. Are there facts that would support a tort action and, if so, what tort(s)?
3. Are there any other defendants besides MA? If so, why sue just MA?

Data Breach Lawsuit

1) I do believe that the subscribers to the Madison Ashley website were owed a reasonable amount of security for their personal information. Regardless of the fact that the website is one which promotes infidelity & is obviously immoral, a contract still existed between MA and its customers. When a person paid money to MA for a subscription to their website, a contract was formed between the two parties. The person puts forth money in exchange for future services to be given via the website. Just because MA puts forth the claim in writing that, ‘We cannot ensure the security or privacy of information you provide through the Internet’, doesn’t make it true or valid. In our textbook an unconscionable contract or clause is explained as something which “…is so unfair that it is rendered void (Business Law 9th ed., pg. 146).” The text goes into further detail in describing exculpatory clauses. The text states, “Closely related to the concept of unconscionability are exculpatory clauses. These are clauses that release a party from liability in the event of monetary or physical injury, no matter who is at fault. Indeed, some courts refer to such clauses in terms of unconscionability. Exculpatory clauses are often held to be unenforceable (Business Law 9th ed., pg. 147).” So as this case goes to court, I would expect either MA to lose the case as their ‘no privacy clause’ would be deemed unenforceable or MA would eventually settle with its customers.

2) There are definitely facts here that would support a tort, specifically a tort of negligence. Entering into a contract with Madison Ashley, the customer relinquishes information such as their full name, address, credit/debit card numbers, email addresses, phone numbers, etc. in order to obtain a subscription. Like virtually all other major websites though, there exists the reasoable expectation that this vital information will be protected from any third parties. So MA had a duty to handle their customers billing information, and personal information with a reasonable amount of security once they were entrusted with it. Having allowed this data to get hacked and fall into the hands of a third party, MA caused harm to its customers by allowing their personal & financial information to leak. Among many other things, many customers might have had expensive divorces as a result of MA’s negligence. MA would have a difficult time successfully defedning against a tort of negligence here.

3) The prompt actually says, ‘An infidelity website, Madison Ashley and its parent company, have been sued in federal court‘. So MA is being sued, but also its parent company is being sued. In this case, Madison Ashley and its parent company would be co-defendants. Both entities are responsible for the website itself which was negligently operated as so to allow its users data to be breached. Its pretty clear that both MA and its parent hold the blame here for the negligence, and it makes sense for the man to be suing both and not just the one.

I don’t know how to handle this Nursing question and need guidance.

Therapy for Clients with Personality Disorders

Clients with personality disorders often find it difficult to overcome their problems and function in daily life. Even when these clients are aware that they have a dysfunction with their personality and are open to counseling, treatment can be challenging for both the client and the therapist. For this Discussion, as you examine personality disorders, consider therapeutic approaches you might use with clients.

Post a description of the personality disorder you selected. Explain a therapeutic approach (including psychotropic medications if appropriate) you might use to treat a client presenting with this disorder, including how you would share your diagnosis of this disorder to the client in order to avoid damaging the therapeutic relationship.

Support your approach with 3or 4 evidence-based literature to support your writing.
