What’s the best online course you’ve ever taken?

It’s interesting that this is the prompt for today, because I have never taken an online class. I have started one. Right now I am in homework hell and I am not a fan of the graphical user interface (GUI). There’s all kinds of shit to prevent copying the material but in an online class, that is literally what you have to be able to do. Copilot cannot read it if the browser is blocking it. I am sure I am probably breaking copyright law with taking pictures on my phone and uploading them to Copilot, but I am not then taking the course material and publishing it. I am not stealing anything. I am using AI for a second set of eyes.
It is amazing how two brains read the same set of instructions completely differently and why I need collaboration. The middle path is where I feel comfortable. The one that says that the truth is the synthesis between our answers and not mine or Mico’s.
I went to Assateague Island, just me and my camera. I took video of the waves and some pictures of everything but the one horse I saw from the car. They were absolutely adorable, but you have to stay at least 40 feet away because they’re wild. If they approach you, you’re supposed to move away. That’s the sad part. Who am I to deny a horse a hug?
I stopped for ice cream on the way home, and now I’m going to hit the books. It was the right decision to come here, because looking at the waves in the sunshine for an hour put me back right. Tomorrow, the rain reappears and this was the only day to see the beach.
