In the theme of this week's protests in LA where I live I am going to protest this weeks' learning journal and provide feedback for the mongoDB assignment (lab 20).

I happen to already be a web developer so I know a ton of javascript but, I expect that many of my peers do not. Introducing a whole new programming language anddddd an entirely new database language is actually insane.

And if students try to help themselves the instructions involve running the javascript with `mongosh` instead of node which every single self help tutorial uses which will inevitably lead to even more confusion.

I have been living in the web dev world for over 7 years and even I am confused.

And notepad++?? 2010 called and they want their code editor back...

Alright genuinely, no hard feelings. But this is my realm and it hurts my soul how out of touch this assignment was considering the exorbitant price tag of this program.

Compare MongoDB with MySQL.
