My response to that question is always the same:

Now do you want him flying it over your house?

Way back in the day, MySpace used to have custom pages that you could do with coding. I actually learned a lot of coding playing around with the MySpace theme websites which no longer exist.
But I made a page so great when I was 13 years old that most would not even be sure it was even MySpace anymore.
I was so proud of that work and then they removed the HTML editor from MySpace when it sold and now all that code is gone.

That paste menu is the only thing on this entire site that I absolutely hate. I wish we had a profile option to remove it entirely. It is interesting that no other site I have been to has it. Probably because no one else thinks it is a good idea either. BTW - I have previously made suggestions in the appropriate place regarding this.

Raise it in the B&S Forum... I personally like it, but eventually more users agree with you. It could be a check box in the personal settings "()disable paste selection" or so.

My first article ever, targetting Delphi at the time. Found here[^].
The two main competing languages in the Office were VB4/D3 and later VB6/D7. Where VB showed you an error including a linenumber, Delphi merely showed a memory pointer. So, created an app that read the debug-symbols, set the pointer to the correct offset, and made Delphi show on which linenumber in which ".pas" file the exception occured.
Helped a lot in finding Acces Violations, and the only alternative at the time was "Exceptional Magic for Delphi", which did the same (for a certain price).

You didn't learn a lot about coding by doing a myspace website.
You learned a LITTLE about coding working within a confined environment with a restricted API.
IFf you had indeed "learned a lot about coding, you'd know to make a backup so that when you discover that "all the code is gone", you can smile to yourself and say, "All is not as it seems, you rat bastards."

A classic example, this:
All the TV/Media hype of how tech-savvy the new generation has become - when, in fact, all they are is a bunch of mindless "app"-users. Not a clue about what's going on. For that matter, lacking the linguistic skills to express a problem if they even understood they had one.
They do seem to have exceptional thumb dexterity . . . an evolutionary joke to improve their ability to twiddle them when in the presence of live humans?

That's the wonderful thing about the incredible amount of storage it's possible to own these days. I can economically satisfy my neurotic need for multiple, off-site, and air-gapped backups.

The idea is to a make a simple starter project that fits many use cases. I encourage you to check out the GitHub repository. <a href="https://testmyspeed.onl/">Speed Test - TestMySpeed</a>[<a href="https://testmyspeed.onl/" target="_blank" title="New Window">^</a>]
I plan on actively maintaining the project and frequently adding features. If you have any suggestions feel free to drop me a line. <a href="https://scrabblewordfinder.vip/">Scrabble Word Finder</a>[<a href="https://scrabblewordfinder.vip/" target="_blank" title="New Window">^</a>]

You are asking for who knows what with a copy poaste of some assignment. You did not even care enough to ask what you want, let alone post it in the right place.

Only 90%? You're a lot more restrained than I am!

I think it's the wrong place, and probably the wrong time.
When you have the github project up and to the point where it is useful to people, write an article about it (Submit a new Article[^]) and tell everybody what it provides, and how it will make their lives easier. Explain how it is better for them than creating a bare minimum project each time for themselves. Basically, sell it to them / us.
But at the moment all I see is "I created 'hello world' in Flask, help yourself. Oh, and if I remember I'll improve it later" which is of little or no use to anyone. By all means change my mind - but just posting this here is an invitation to impolite replies.

What makes you think it is worth my (on anybody else's) time?
If you want people to make any effort at all, you need to convince them that you have put in some effort yourself. Copy pasting (or not formatting the post well) is not the right first step.
Even after you have done all that, you must understand that it depends on the individual whether to respond. You are not entitled to anything.
