Every single time something seems to claim to be untraceable or anonymous, it seems to hold for a while, and then there's a "<X> is not as safe as we thought" headline.
Seems to be a good rule to just not trust anything.
Pretty much. Perhaps billing per minute if you're going to stay for longer than an hour, or per item if you're staying for less. Though that seems overly complex and a logistical nightmare.
There's a place I often visit in Shoreditch called Ziferblat[0], and I think that they have something of a solution to this (they have other places too).
Essentially, you are charged for your time and everything else is free. Presently I think it's about 7p per minute for the first hour, and then 4p a minute afterwards - there's also a cap.
While in there, coffee, snacks, etc, are all "free".
Perhaps this sort of model could work? Obviously if you're not willing to kick out all the remote workers. I guess this turns it into more of a coworking space though.
Probably not the best idea. While they do tend to summarise well, comments tend to be filled with opinion - generally a better idea to ensure you form your own, rather than rely on a potentially biased third party.
I went to a British Secondary School, and am just about to leave Sixth Form - I took computer science at both levels.
The trouble is - again, at both levels - there are few teachers who understand the topic. Scratch and the like are easy to learn for more or less anyone, and teachers can teach it easily. I know that in some cases CS teachers are IT teachers who took on the extra subject.
With like Python, unless the teacher has actually written a decent amount of it then they're going to struggle to teach it well. If they've never properly programmed, they will also struggle to point out that "Twitter has an API that you may want to use to analyse tweet contents", for instance.
I'd just like to reiterate that I am not disagreeing with you, I would very much love a curriculum change. I just think that the lack of qualified teachers needs to be addressed as well.
A good read, though funnily enough the live departures board doesn't seem to work for the closest station to me. Nor does it seem to work for lines that have trains going in both directions.
Though to be honest most things don't, I blame being rural.
Okay so, as much as we all want to complain about how awful Electron is for battery life and just general efficiency, the facts are that it most likely is going to stay - at least for a little while, considering how much is being invested in it.
Instead of complaining about what it does, perhaps we could be trying to make it more efficient, or make an alternative that solves the same problems (perceived or otherwise) in a better way?
