And the end of the story is: They are able to communicate in c# (or what else programming language) but not in their cultural language.
No, I think (hope) it is not that bad... I know the japanese school from childhood and what I remember it was always a step before others.

I'm all for making some basic programming logic mandatory. It's fairly easy to understand the basic control structures of conditions and loops so it shouldn't be too difficult. Just understanding this would help immensely when learning any language. It's also easy to relate to problem solving as well as creating algorithms.
I think we were thought about variables in mathematics somewhere around the age 13-14 here in Sweden and adding some basic programming about the same time would be nice.

So Israel's been doing this since 2000; how exactly has it worked out for them?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

In Sweden, kids have programmed teachers to let them do whatever they want. I didn't realize that screaming was a programming language.

It's very closely related to the first language every new programmer masters: Profanity.

True, but the first programming language is moaning.

Last week's episode of Family Guy included a clip from 1980s Nintendo video game Double Dribble showing a glitch to get a free 3-point goal. Fox obtained the clip from YouTube where it had been sitting since it was first uploaded in 2009. Shortly after, Fox told YouTube the game footage infringed its copyrights. YouTube took it down. YouTube: "I don't know, that fair use sure looks like copyright infringement to me."

Quote: Instead of copyright holders having to prove a video is infringing, their scanning software can take it down automatically, and then it falls on the creator to prove they had a right to post it.
Just like in the dark-ages - the accused have to prove innocence...

I created a clip on YouTube from my dashboard-camera to show a relative across the country what my neighborhood was like. My radio was on, just barely audible.
I uploaded the video and it was blocked by YouTube for "copyright infringement". Apparently, you can just barely hear a song playing IN THE BACKGROUND. And so I am a criminal music thief.
That was when I built my own server, and now I post my own content on my own server to share with friends. YouTube and their lawyers can suck it.
The "cloud" is the bane of civilization. It is ALL bad, 100% rotten festering crap supported by scumbag lawyers.

Tesla co-founder, Marc Tarpenning called hydrogen fuel cells a “scam”. He also said out loud what many in the industry are thinking – that energy companies are supporting the technology for its inefficiency. See attached podcast for full hydrogen fuel cell rant.

Now that we have shipped RC2 I want to give more details on the .NET Core tooling moving from .xproj / project.json to .csproj / MSBuild.

No, I'm saying, if it were my software, I'd be the only one to get away.

Visual Basic was launched by Bill Gates at Windows World on May 20, 1991 and since then has gone through has fourteen releases. The pinnacle release, as far as many of are concerned was VB6, the final non-dot-net version. To celebrate VB's Silver Anniversary let's re-open the campaign to open source VB6. You were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they 'should.'

Oh for f***s sake, why?!?!
So we can have a few branches of VB6 that don't work with each other as the parties that want it so bad will go to war as to which direction to take it?
I sure as sh*t wouldn't want a production app written in any of those abominations running around my enterprise.
