Don’t the metal ones have the year on to shame you into buying a new one?

O get them because the lifespan of a paper/plastic one is about 3 days…

Oh cool, I thought they had shut down

According to their discord it’s gone with no backups for the he Lemmy side at least.

I don’t think there are any fiction/literature instances left, they have all folded now?

For my personal projects I somehow ended up with git being on a OneDrive synced folder - carries over the general changes, then explicitly commit and push to get it to GitHub etc.

You could argue that the story is that labour didn’t decide to continue the full discount (and have therefore put up the price) when they could have.

I would prefer more/better services over price, but a lot of others depends on the current price of the existing busses.

its marked as a crosspost - that’s an app issue, not a user issue.

Lots of the oil exploration ships are custom built for the job. This one is old, but I would guess that there may be some design information regarding it’s survey capability that was marked as protected when it was purchased, even if it’s not really relevant anymore

Saying that minimum housing requirements don’t apply to them is a slippery slope though!

And you know this wouldn’t stay temporary, once it’s allowed it would be normalised.

Office buildings are not built for housing, it’s often very expensive to convert them.

(More plumbing requirements, legal requirements for natural light etc)

It’s a very kill or cure approach… Let’s hope it works long term.

It’s still a huge yearly inflation rate though!

She was one of the people I mentally considered immortal. She has been ‘old’ my entire life.

Wouldn’t assuming the Lira will drop more mean people would pay less for it though? So would make it worth less?

How does inflation in Turkish Lira cause the Dollar price equivalent to go up so much? Should the Lira not be devaluing against the Dollar at a rate similar to its inflation?

If not, doesn’t that actually indicate a strong Turkish economy?

Oh, ok, that’s annoying then. One of those cases where it feels like the person putting the course together has never actually interacted with children?

Is the fact that C# produced executables also a problem? With python you can ‘protect’ non lab computers at the school by just not installing the python runtime on them. Teach them c# and I guarantee they will be making executables to cause trouble.

Generally agree with you that teachers should be able to choose at least one of the languages to teach. basic web dev stuff is probably pretty useful to them though if it includes JavaScript?

I leant from scratch as my first programming language in year 12.

They tried to teach OOP in year 13, but I didn’t really get it until university.

This was years ago at this point, I think they introduced the programming GCSE the year after I did my A-Levels.

A scripting language like python is the ideal language to start with because you can JUST learn the programming bit without worrying about OOP, project structures, compiling etc.

Lots of us have the experience of being the kid in that situation though. I learnt python in secondary school.

I learnt to program in python (in year 12). It was pretty good:

• less intimidating than the languages full of braces/brackets.
• as it’s also a scripting language, you can ignore OOP and just write code.
• has lots of kid friendly drawing libraries (tortoise.py anyone?) so they can make things they can see on screen etc

PHP is native in Linux then?

How is that different to something like powershell?

Not knowing about permanent effects still seems better than definite permanent effects 🤷‍♂️ would help learn about them too
