“This week we learned that it is easier, faster, and cheaper to land on the Moon than it is to deliver new passenger rail service or even to develop and deliver new railcars." #PassengerRail https://www.narprail.org/happening-now/news/blog/are-moon-shots-easier-than-passenger-rail/
CS educators: do you have a favorite textbook (or online resource) for an undergraduate CS0 "introduction to computer science for non-majors" course? I'm thinking bits and files, processors and storage, how software works, networking, cybersecurity, careers in computing, a bit of social context, that sort of thing -- what every educated citizen should know even if they never write another line of code in their life.
I plan to teach some Python using Pygame and my own materials, but I'd like to at least touch on these other subjects.

Never thought I would ever say this but...
Hooray for the IRS!
Umkempt, verklempt, and tax-exempt.
(I leave the rest of the limerick as an exercise.)
Anticapitalism, anticolonialism, and critical race theory would like a word about this ad.
A communications disruption could mean only one thing: software update. #att #qoto #PhantomMenace
Up and at 'em, people! These toots aren't going to boost themselves.

KGW.com: 'Hope it works': #Portland launches new program to connect #homeless people with #outreachworkers

@futurebird Isn't there some hopeless-but-idealistic candidate people could vote for in the primary? I worry that "uncommitted" pools together "Biden is too far to the right" with "too far to the left", "too old", "buying too many trains", "not buying enough trains", etc. It's showing up to the protest with a blank sign.
I've been voting for my favorite in the primary and the best remaining candidate in the general for years.
I like the point about using the primary to test/practice, especially if you're a target of voter supression.

@trinsec Not in the version I've seen, but perhaps there are other varieties.
