@djsmiley2k Concerns of WordPress being inherently insecure are a fallacy
Saying WordPress is insecure is like saying Windows is insecure. They're the most popular in their areas and highly targeted. And a wide userbase includes those that never update and "just click next next ok" and use hacked plugins with embedded malware
@rahuldottech Sorry to say that, but the article is a bit superficial. Not because it's badly written, but because it touches the subject briefly and doesn't elucidate much. There's no introduction on what the problem is or why do you think it should be discussed (some intro such as "Today in India's schools there's a increasingly effort to teach programming classes, the first ones have been included in curriculums in the 80's and today xxx% of the schools offer mandatory classes such as so and so")
You have a paragraph that introduces this idea, but you should expand on it
Besides, your argument could be resumed into "don't teach the same subjects to everyone, have carreer-oriented curriculums instead of a generalist curriculum for everyone"
That's not really a new idea. But that's nothing wrong with it not being new
But if that's what you advocate, present some arguments and counter arguments in favor of it
And if you really think basic computing classes are overlooked, give examples such as "I'm 16 and my friends can only use cellphones and are clueless and"...
Not telling you to mimic his style, mind you (it's got a huge, story-like intro) but, if you'd like, you can get the gist of it for using as thematic inspiration
I have, somewhere in some backup in some lost HDD or DVD-R, either 0.05 or 0.5 btc. From back when it was new and there were "bitcoin faucets" that would give you free btc, just because.
@Bob A badly broken Defy with two huge dead circles and half of the touchscreen broken and Android 4 flashed that it can barely run and some apps like Uber take up to five minutes to load nothing.
@Bob I don't really know. I think cheapish phones are about BRL 200 ~300 (USD 64 ~96), average phones like the Moto E2 are circa BRL 650 (USD 208), the Moto G4 or G5 are about the same price (BRL 750 ~ 1000 / USD 240 ~ 320) and a Galaxy S8+ is USD 1000
@bwDraco But yeah, you might want to not make your "yuck"s and "ew"s less pronounced because there very well may be people in this room using phones of that sort because of reasons, monetary or otherwise
@bwDraco I considered a Moto G5 non-plus, but it's usd 250 if I pay in cash or USD 320 if I pay in 10x; I could get one of those and my budget would still be OK but the cost / benefit of a Moto C is better.
@ThatREDACTEDGuy If you want something like that ZTE phone (read: functional but rather shitty) I'll see what I can do about sending one over. Maybe it'll tide you over till you can more easily afford a decent one.
In fact, it isolated the local industry, made the prices more expensive (IIRC) and when finally the tech protecionism ended, we were years behind the rest of the world
The problem with flash drives is that they're made to be as cheap as possible, as a simply way to store and transfer data, rather than as a robust long-term storage solution.
If you need quality, spend the extra money on a premium USB 3.0 flash drive, or better yet, a portable SSD.
(though "portable SSD" is too expensive for many people)
When I plug in my USB flash drive, it shows up on my computer as write-protected or read-only. I am unable to transfer data to it, nor can I modify or delete any files already stored on it. I also cannot repartition or reformat the drive using Windows Disk Management, DiskPart, GParted, or other ...
I have a USB flash drive which is no longer recognized by my computer. Windows Disk Management and DiskPart report No Media with no storage space (0 bytes) on the drive and I cannot partition or format the drive:

If the drive appears in Windows Explorer, trying to access it returns an e...

Wow. Just wow.
First it's Texas, now it's the Caribbeans, and soon it'll be Florida.
I already donated to American Red Cross for Harvey and I simply do not have the budget to put out more donations to humanitarian organizations.
