I'm a bit on the fence on this one. I've seen ChatGPT inventing things too many times to trust it with anything more than rewriting and improving texts...

JavaScript, my nemesis. I tried it many years ago, and I got the feeling of something so… ethereal, disconnected, and at sometimes random, that I never find the time to get to know it. And I probably should, may as well try this, thanks.

Looks quite complete, and with the offers Udemy usually does, it's not very expensive (although the base price is a bit high). Thanks!

I recently recommended the Odin project to a friend that studied web development but, due to the pandemic, didn't get to work as a developer and is now rusty. Freecodecamp is a resource I want to explore, but never find the time to. Thanks for the contribution!

Seems like an amazing resource, thanks!

The celebration of errors is something I've been trying to transmit to students of all ages for years. And they usually look at me as if I'm crazy. They struggle to grasp the concept of, instead of something to be ashamed of, is an opportunity to improve, under the only condition that you have to **learn **from them. I'll take a look at the book, now that summer comes and I'll have some free time. I love the differentiation you mention, as it's something that we may not know intrinsically, but when you think about it, it's always easier to use as a tool for improvement. Thanks!

I know you have your hands really full, so when you have time and can create /c/teachprogramming and /c/learnprogramming I'll try to be of help there.

Yes, that would be it. Not all of the studetns go to university, and the studies are not focused to that end, but as you say, it's a nice option they have, and (inventing here) maybe about 15-20% decide to, at least, try it.

I'm not sure how it corresponds to other countries. We get students usually from 16 to 20, in what is called Professional Studies. It's more focused on practical skills than theoretical. When they finish the upper level they can go to the university, and they don't have to do several subjects of the first year, as they are very similar to what they did in the upper level. In these professional studies there is no maths, physics and so on, they only study practical subjects (hardware, networking, programming, operative systems...). Edit: some spelling mistakes
