Yale Online Course Catalog Update
January 20, 2014
I read “Yale Censored a Student’s Course Selection Website. So I Made an Unblockable Replacement.” The author seems to be a Yale student. Excitement will definitely ensue. Also, I am encouraged that the workaround is a Google Chrome extension. Good news for students who want to use a popular browser to respond to administrative actions. Perhaps a Googler will help out in the spring?
Here’s the passage I noted:
Banned Bluebook never stores data on any servers. It [the code] never talks to any non-Yale servers. Moreover, since my software is smarter at caching data locally than the official Yale course website, I expect that students using this extension will consume less bandwidth over time than students without it. Don’t believe me? You can read the source code. No data ever leaves Yale’s control. Trademarks, copyright infringement, and data security are non-issues. It’s 100% kosher.
Yep, kosher.

The best you can do about your lounge is to change a little bit of its look.
For this type of floor, you glue the tiles to the existing floor.
By adding some blooming and colorful flowers, a magnificent lawn or
an imaginatively designed row of shrubbery or a luscious green lawn,
you ccan beautify how your home looks.
