It usually doesn’t end well, because the contrast is just not as good. There’s a reason that things like professional DAWs or CAD software use a dark theme.
With a heavy bold font, it’s much better:

My font doesn’t get any bolder than this, though. I’d have to make a new variant of it. Mhh. 🤔

It isn't that I've not considered all the other options on the table (_which can still be_), it's just that I've made a decision as the project lead that largely helped trigger a rebirth of the use of Twtxt back in July 1 2020. There are good reasons not to change the threading model right now, as the changes being proposed are quite disruptive and don't consider all the possible things that _could_ go wrong.
Finally just closing #18, #19 and #20 without starting a proper discussion and ignoring a 'micro consensus' feels... not right.
I don't know what to think rather than letting it rest (May will be busy here) and focus on other stuff in the future.

It's an interesting comparison. I really should have thought about that.
You're right, the rendering would not be very spectacular. :-)

I think if you find a project or goal in general that these kids want to achieve, that is the best and maybe only choice with a good chance of positive outcome. I don't know, like building a price scraper, a weather station or whatever. Yeah, these are already too advanced if they never programmed, but you get the idea. If they have something they want to build for themselves for their private life, that can be a great motivator I've experienced. Or you could assign 'em the task to build their own twtxt client if they don't have any own suitable ideas. :-)
Showing them that you do a lot of your daily work in the shell can maybe also help to get them interested in text-based boring stuff. Or at least break the ice. Lead by example. The more I think about it, the more I believe this to be very important. That's how I still learn and improve from my favorite workmate today in general. Which I'm very thankful of.

@movq I have to admit, I didn't follow the topic very closely, but I was under the impression that there were more votes on location-based addressing. But maybe I'm completely wrong. Anyway. I don't have the energy to be part of a fundamental debate.

> Hence, I'd recommend to start programming with a console program. As for the language, not sure. But Python is probably a good choice
That’s what I usually do (when we have young people at work who never really programmed before), but it doesn’t really “hit” them. They’ve seen so much, crazy graphics, web pages, it’s all fancy. Just some text output is utterly boring these days. ☹️ And that’s my problem: I have no idea how I could possibly spark some interest in things like pointers or something “low-level” like that. And I truly believe that you *need* to understand things like pointers in order to program, in general.

The community is heavily divided in this regard, and yet we need consensous. We’re like the three Borg in VOY: Survival Instinct). 🥴

00:30 (_midnight_) for a P2 incident that is now resolved at 02:10 🤯 Obviously I'm not going to work tomorrow (_I mean today lol 😂_) at the usual start time 🤦♂️_
As @bender says, that sounds like a bot. I'd just block the IP address, hoping it doesn't change all the time. But then you know for sure that it's the AI fuckwits.
Also, the devil in me thinks it's funny to swap out the repo in question for something entirely different. :-D

We started with a simple traffic light phase and then added pedestrian crossing buttons. But only painting it on the canvas. In our computer room there was an actual traffic light on the wall and at the very end of the school year our IT basics teacher then modified the program to actually control the physical traffic light. That was very impressive and completely out of reach for me at the time. That teacher pulled the first lever for me ending up where I am now.

I actually never walked on that road before and discovered that this was a dead end. There's usually at the very least a foot path on which to continue when passing a farm. Not this time, though. I didn't want to stamp down the high grass to cut across country, so I had to walk back maybe 150 meters. Not too bad.
