UK gov will probably be as successful with this as with their porn ban.

University of Helsinki mooc.fi course is free, really good, and doesn’t require any prior knowledge to start. Current year’s version uses Python (there is also a Java version), but what I liked the most about it is that it’s essentially an Uni course, and as such it focuses on teaching the programming concepts rather than using a specific language.

That’s a good tip, if I change the scaling from default to small it all fits. I’d rather not do that though, especially considering it looked fine on default yesterday :)

My only worry is that once they start regulating things, they’ll fuck up non disposables too somehow. Like they did with the max nicotine level and the tank capacity.

Last book of The First Law trilogy by Joe Abercrombie.

Kiki is the probably the best children’s movie I’ve ever seen. Not saying it’s not suitable for adults but it’s one that I can imagine watching with my kids over and over again.
