There is nothing new here. I was teaching computer basics, including programming, to inmates at an open prison in England as part of a rehabilitation scheme as a moonlighting job back when I was a university professor in the early 1980s. One of my students went on to take a Computer Science degree course at a leading university (not mine).
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Straw Poll

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
