jelknerfirst thing i do is set up a git repo11:03
jelknerhttps://codeberg.org/GraceHopperCenter/itd11011:03
jelkneri'll be taking my own notes there on the OpenEDG curriculum11:04

dcammueI am a business student14:42

jelknerthomas is at UoPeople, right?14:47
dcammueforgot14:47
fkoikoithomas and gabriel is at the new campus14:47
jelknerI thought they were going to UoP?14:48
dcammuethey were already in the UL before getting to UoP14:48
jelknerso they are doing both?14:49
dcammueso they can decide to hold one at a time14:49
jelknerwhat do you mean by "hold one at a time"?14:49
dcammueto stop UL and continue Uop14:50
jelknerthey have scholarships to UoP, right?14:50
dcammueyes14:50
jelknerso it is free for them14:50
dcammueyes14:50
jelknerin that case, it makes sense to continue there14:51
dcammueokay14:51
jelknerboth institutions are acredited14:51
jelknerand UoP is accredited in the U.S.14:51
jelknerwhich is good internationally14:51
dcammue+114:51
dcammueUoP14:52
jelknerso since cost is not a factor, it makes sense to take advantage of the scholarship14:52

dcammueand they look cool15:47
jelknerthanks shallon!15:47
dcammuejust for some students did not link their minimal page15:47
jelknerso let's talk about what a file is15:47
jelknersince it's all just bits15:47
jelknera file is just bits too15:48
jelknerbut we want to say more15:48
jelknera file is a named location on a non-volatile storage medium15:49
jelknercan anyone tell me what the issue was with kthomas's image?15:49
dcammueACTION goes see her codes15:49
fkoikoiACTION goes to view her code15:50
jelkneranyone?15:50
jkollieI didn't get to view her page but if it aren't loading,than it might be broken 15:50
jelknersaying "broken" isn't enough jkollie 15:51
shallonjelkner, her image is not in the media folder that should be linked to the index page15:51
jelknerwe want to debug the issue15:51
jelknerso what is broken?15:51
jkollieHer image 15:51
jelknernope15:51
jelknernothing is broken about the image15:52
jelknerit's a lovely image15:52
jkollieLet me view her page 15:52
jelknerdcammue: do you have any idea?15:52
jelknerwe have a lot to learn15:52
shallonjelkner, I believe the problem is the location of the image15:52
dcammueurl15:52
shallonkthomas, where is the image located on your computer15:53
jelknerthere you go, shallon!15:53
jelknersay more15:53
kthomaswhat do you mean shallon15:53
jelknershallon: let me know if you want me to take over15:54
shallonYou should have a media folder in the clone directory of your repository on your computer15:54
jelknergreat15:54
kthomasoh ok15:54
jelkneryou rock, shallon!15:54
jelknernow i will take over15:54
jelknerbecause this discussion will take us on a very important tangent15:55
jelknerbut we should take the time to talk about it15:55
jelknerbecause it is *so* important!15:55
jelknerthe topic is: what is a file system?15:55
shallonThe you can add photos and link it to your index page with just <img src="media/the image name"15:55
jelknershe doesn't have a media directory in her repo now, shallon 15:55
jelkner*and* her image is not there in any case15:56
jelkneri know where her image is15:56
jelknershe told us in her code15:56
jelknerso where is her image?15:56
fkoikoi+1 because i just look at her codeberg account but didn't see any media or image directory15:56
jelknerright, but where is her image?15:56
shallonit's in downloads jelkner 15:56
jelknerand how does jelkner think he knows15:56
jelkner?15:56
jelknerbut where, shallon?15:57
jelkneron what device?15:57
shallonjelkner, users/105433615:57
jelknergreat shallon 15:57
jelknerso let me tell you where that is15:58
jelknerIt is on kthomas's laptop15:58
jelknerwhere is her website?15:58
dcammueon the server15:58
fkoikoiher website is on the server15:58
jelkneryes fkoikoi!15:59
jelknerthis is great15:59
jelknerand just for fun, i'll even tell you where the server is15:59
jelknerit's in the state of New Jersey in the U.S.15:59
jelknerbut that doesn't matter16:00
jelkneris it *somewhere* on the internet16:00
jelkneras long as we have an address16:00
jelknerwe don't really care where it is16:00
jelknerbut kthomas's laptop is *not* on the internet16:00
jelknerand that's where the image is16:00
jelkneri am cheating a little bit16:01
jelknersince i know my students have Macbooks16:01
jelknerand i know that MacOS puts users accounts in /Users16:01
jelkneri also know that students have their student numbers as their user names16:01
jelknerso i could tell at a glance what was going on.16:01
jelkneron linux, user's home directories are in /home16:02
jelknernot /Users16:02
jelknerbut what we all really need to understand is the file system16:02
jelknerthe file system is a tree16:02
jelknera mathematical tree16:02
jelknerhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_structure16:03
jelkneryou should all take some time to read that page16:03
jelknerbecause we are soon going to be studying another tree16:03
jelknerthe DOM16:03
jelknerDocument Object Model16:03
jelkneran html document is a tree too16:04
jelknerit will help you understand deeper if you "get this"16:04
jelknerand really understand how a file system and DOM are both trees16:04
jelknertrees have roots16:04
jelknerdoes anyone know what is the root of the unix file system?16:04
jelknerroots go at the top, btw16:05
jelknerso it's like we pulled the poor tree up and turned it upside down ;-)16:05
jelknerdcammue: do you know?16:05
jelknerwhat is the root of the unix file system?16:05
dcammuelocal machine16:06
jelknerby your silence, i guess know one knows16:06
jelknerit is a single character16:06
jelknerhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_filesystem16:07
shallonjelkner, according to google it is the slash(/)16:07
jelkneryes, shallon 16:07
jelknerbut look at the wikipedia page for a better understanding16:07
jelknerwhy am i taking all this time to talk about this?16:07
jelknerbecause you won't be able to mange files in your website if you don't understand it16:08
jelknerlet me explain16:08
jelknerevery file (the named sequence of bits at some address on a non-volatile storage system) has a *location* in the file system16:08
jelknerthe location is given by another important term, the path16:09
jelkneryou need to learn that term16:09
jelkneror you won't understand16:09
jelknerwhat is the path to kthomas's image?16:09
dcammueuser/kthomasid#/downloads/image16:10
jelknernice dcammue 16:10
jelknerunix is case sensitive16:10
jelknerso it's actually /Users/[kthomas's student id]/Downloads/[image file name]16:11
jelknerright dcammue?16:11
jelknerbut you basically have it16:11
jelknerthat is called an *absolute path*16:12
jelknerthis is a very important idea16:12
jelknerso please stop me if this isn't clear16:12
jelkneryou will need to understand it16:12
dcammue+1 clear16:12
fkoikoiclear for me16:12
kthomasi understand16:12
jelknerabsolute paths are not portable16:12
jelknerwhat kind of path is portable?16:13
jkollieClear jelkner 16:13
jelknerand ask me if you don't know what portable means16:13
jelknerso, what kind of path is portable?16:13
kthomaswhat does portable mean16:13
jelknerportable means you can move it from one place (or context) to another16:13
kthomasok16:13
jelknerhere we want to move an image from your laptop to a web server16:14
jelknerwe want to "port" the image16:14
jelknerthink import16:14
jelknerexport16:14
jelknerchange location16:14
jelknerportable means you can move it16:14
jelknerabsolute paths are not portable16:14
jelknerwhen you move them, they break16:14
jelknerso, can anyone tell me what the other kind of path is, instead of absolute path?16:15
fkoikoithe relative path jelkner 16:15
jelknernice fkoikoi!16:15
jelkneryes16:15
jelknerrelative path16:15
jelknerrelative paths *never* start with /16:16
jelknerso we can tell kthomas's path won't work16:16
jelknersince it is an absolute path on her local computer16:16
jelknernow, i need a few minutes to help kthomas fix that16:16
jelknerwe have one more issue16:17
jelknerMacOS doesn't like to share16:17
jelknerit never learned to play nice with others :-(16:17
jelknerso it uses its own file formats a lot of the time16:17
jelkneri know we are taking a lot of time today with this16:18
dcammuemedia/image-file16:18
jelknerbut it is worth it16:18
jelknersince we are learning a lot of very fundamental things16:18
fkoikoi+116:18
jelknerwhat is an image file?16:18
jelkneri want you to think about it, because it is *so cool*!16:18
jelknerso it's all just ...16:19
fkoikoia bits16:19
kthomasbits16:19
jelkneryes16:19
jelkneri will keep repeating this every time we encounter it16:20
jelkneran image file is just a sequence of bits16:20
shallonimage files are files that have visual content16:20
jelknerso how come we see a kitten?16:20
jelknerhere is a new important vocabulary word:16:20
jelknerCodec16:20

jelknerlook there16:21
jelknerwhat do you see?16:21
fkoikoi3 Kitten16:22
jelkneryes, that's what i see too16:22
*** anthony_p has quit (Ping timeout: 480 seconds)16:22
jelknerbut what does the computer "see", and how does it make it so we see 3 kittens?16:23
jelkneri'll tell you16:23
jelknerit uses a screen or monitor to *render* the image16:23
jelknerusing little lights16:24
jelknerthe lights are called pixels16:24
jelknerhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel16:24
jelknerpixel stands for "picture element"16:24
jelknerit's just a colored light16:24
jelknerthe computer has *no idea* there are three kittens16:25
jelknerit just turns bits into lights16:25
jelknerand we "see" 3 kittens16:25
jelknera Codec is a set of rules for turning bits into lights16:25
jelkneror sounds16:25
jelkneror both16:25
jelknercodecs define how we "encode" media16:26
jelknerimages, movies (which are just a fast moving sequence of images)16:26
jelknerand sounds16:26
jelknerso, back to kthomas's issue16:26
*** dcammue has quit (Read error: No route to host)16:27
*** jkollie__ has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)16:27
jelknershe has an image on her computer that ends with a .heic extension16:27
jelknerwhen you see something like this, and you don't know what it is16:27
jelknerlook it up16:27
jelknerwikipedia is the best place16:27
jelknerhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Efficiency_Image_File_Format#HEVC16:28
jelknerit is a MacOS codec16:28
jelknerfor images16:28
jelknerkthomas will need to:16:28
fkoikoioh okay16:29
jelkner1. Convert the .heic file into a web standard format16:29
jelknerlike .jpeg or .png16:29
kthomasok16:29
dcammuekthomas, will need to rename it. +116:29
jelknerthen she will need to copy it to a media subdirectory in her repo16:29
jelknerlike shallon said much earlier16:29
jelknerand then she will need to change her link from an absolute link to relative link to the new file16:30
jelknermake sense?16:30
fkoikoi+116:30
kthomasyes16:31
jelknerso we have only twenty 4 minutes left16:31
jkollie+116:31
jelkneri think that is enough for today16:31
jelknerplease take time to read the wikipedia pages linked here16:31
fkoikoialright16:31

jelkner1. the unix file system17:05
shallonI will get to dcammue 17:05
jelkner2. absolute vs. relative paths to a file17:06
jelkner3. the tree data strucutre17:06
jelknerwe will see that one again soon when we talk about the DOM17:06
shallonwait... jelkner won't I be taking the quiz17:06
