What I Learn?
There are a lot of people that can be haters but they are people just like you. I learn that this woman named Ozlem Cekic went to a guy's home and got to know him. She said that it's better to do this so that haters can know who you are. Get to know them, offer food, drink coffee and more. Her words say... Evil can only be defeated by kindness and that kindness wins.
What I Think?
I know that showing love is the best thing there can be. I love watching videos like this because it shows how people are in the world. I think I'm gonna learn how to show kindness to people more... it might help me mentally and maybe help that person become a better person. Oh, hey... kind of matches another video. So this is a video worth to watch or listen.

TED Talk of the DAY 6: Companies Controlling The Mind
Video here: https://www.ted.com/talks/tristan_harris_the_manipulative_tricks_tech_companies_use_to_capture_your_attention?utm_campaign=tedspread&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=tedcomshare&utm_term=watchNow
What I Learn?
Technology is controlling us. Many apps are able to get our attention. This happens everywhere and it's a race to get the most attention to people. It talks about how most companies are out to figure out what is on your mind. They targeted to people that could easily get attention. This needs to change. They need to start controlling how long people stay on any kind of technology. Tech companies should start figuring out how to stop worrying about how to attract but rather how to control how long people stay on it.
What I Think?
I agree that technology has been worrying about only how to get attention. It needs to change... it sucks that most people who uses YouTube... have been getting burnouts because of having to keep up with the new things that YouTube keeps having... meaning more attention... instead of more about the person and their love on what they do. This video should be worth a listen because people are limited their time in the real world and more on the technology that you use everyday... I try my best not to stay on a certain page because of how important my health is right now. It can be hard but it can happen.

Video is here: https://www.ted.com/talks/julia_shaw_a_memory_scientist_s_advice_on_reporting_harassment_and_discrimination?utm_campaign=tedspread&utm_content=button__2018-11-02&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=tedcomshare
What I learn?
There's a lot of companies and work places that harassment and discrimination happens at. This video talks about how to remember what happened during harassment and discrimination. There's a list that asks what you remember what happened during and after the report... it helps a lot to keep you from being scared of what happens to you. Especially, if they are wrong. There's an app called Spot that can help you report if a harassment or discrimination that happens. You can use this same app to report it to your employer. It's a good app if you want to stay anonymous. This app is helpful for people who are afraid.
What I think?
This is actually a good listen/ watch. I don't work but I know my brother has experience this a lot of times because of his speech impairment. As always, if you feel like something is wrongful in your workplace or in fact, anywhere, don't be afraid to report it. Reporting things can have many good things... it's time to stand up for yourself and not be afraid... no more harassment and discrimination in your workplace.

TED Talk of the Day 1: Your Data and Privacy Is Not Safe?
The video is here: https://www.ted.com/talks/finn_myrstad_how_tech_companies_deceive_you_into_giving_up_your_data_and_privacy?utm_campaign=tedspread&utm_content=button__2018-10-31&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=tedcomshare
What I learn?
Data and privacy can easily be given up to many apps without reading the fine print. Many apps these days can actually put out terms that could sell your data just with your permission. The guy talks about how things should be cautioned and reported no matter what.
What I Think?
I think it's a good idea to let people know the dangers of data and privacy, especially since technology is all the time getting smarter and sneakier. It's always best to keep an eye out on what is happening with your data... including the kids around you too. That's one thing that he talked about is how children and such are easily attracted to these privacy problems with the new tech that keeps coming out. As I listened, I learned that it's best to read all of the terms and service... and yes, you can turn in a company for a term and service review if there's something you noticed that is wrong. All in all, this video was fun to watch and listen to...
Until then... we shall continue tomorrow with another video from TED.
