I'm a programmer turned teacher. Where most teachers are now learning to code, I'm learning how to teach. Also, teaching is a WAY harder job #digitech #digitaltechnologies #coding #teaching #edtech

The birth of a pandemic is so quiet you might miss it. A silent seed planting itself in the world, set to grow into something uncontainable.

Tuesdays are the worst so here is the funniest video of all time

Be like Google Maps.

I want to say again, as a person with a Computer Science degree who is generally hugely in favour of technical solutions to social problems: No computer voting machine system that our civilisation can deploy is better than paper ballots

Just so y'all know, every time you push code, you appear live on @GitHub's real-time events board at their HQ

If you die, you’ll be glad you did this.

This is hilarious. Engineers are competing who creates the worst Ul on Reddit. I think the winners are (thread)🧵 1/ Enter your phone number

Again we have been trying to get info out of the Bureau of Meteorology about huge spending on a new computer system. Contracts first let to big consulting firms for $4m suddenly cost $20m, or those let for $30m now cost $75m. All we get is verbal assurances! Lets see the figures.

Ladies: If some piece of shit tells you this at school, or in the workplace or even on the street - FILE A SEXUAL HARASSMENT REPORT - It's SEXUAL HARASSMENT. File a report, press charges. At school, file a report. At work, contact HR and file a report.

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

We all face moments when things feel overwhelming, and that’s okay. Remember, you are not alone.

@EmergencyBK I’m equal parts hopeful and anxious

All of the 17 squirrels that live in my head are obsessed with the US election. I’m giving into them for now, but must sleep tonight or illness triggers await. If you’re also shitting yourself & can’t look way, say hi, so I know who to oohh & arghh with next few days… weeks.

Sonic has helped me prep for the @microbit_edu Python programming projects this week 😁 Learners will be building on my Simon Says game to make it their own 🕹️🎮 Download the worksheet pdf for *free* here 👉 github.com/MrL832/mrlovel…

@YourAnonCentral Kamala - Australia 🇦🇺

Special poll: Who would you vote for in the US election 🗳️ Add your country or state below, after you vote.

Here is a booklet of the the @microbit_edu python 🐍games 🕹️ I have created over the last few weeks including Simon Says, Tamagotchi, react and more ⚡️ I think these games are a great way to engage learners with coding and creativity 🥳 Download the pdf for *free* here 👉 github.com/MrL832/mrlovel…
