Jean Hoerni

 Jean Hoerni        
              In the March of 1959 Jean Hoerni invented the planar process. The planar process basically takes the large mass of information in the giant old computers, and compacts it down into a small chip on the circuit board. The new chip provided computers with far lower leakage currents, and also required less fabrication.
             
               The planar process has impacted the world by requiring less work when building computers, and also made it easier for people to own/ store computers with their smaller size. The planar process has made an impact of my life by allowing me to have a small, compact computer that fits on a desk instead of filling a whole entire room.I enjoy being able to have my own small computer in computers class that lets me access tons of information through a small machine. Jean Hoerni’splanar process was a huge mile stone for computers in history.

QR codes

QR codes can be used for advertising, education and other purposes. Companies can place QR codes on their products that let buyers will recieve a coupon with their purchase. Teachers can use QR codes to help their students study. Language teachers can place QR codes on items in the room and have students walk around to guess and check the words. QR codes can also be used as  boarding passes for airlines instead of printing passes. QR codes are very helpful.

Football

Mules vs. Hornets

Introduction

Hello, My name is Dylan and I am a freshman in high school. I am currently on the football team, and I plan to try out for basketball. I also have to decide whether I am going to try out for the baseball team in the spring or run track. Another focus in my life is spending time with my friends and family. I will use this blog for school posts, as well as personal posts. Thank you for your time and have a great day.
