Another, related, issue would be the existence of two authors with the same name who both publish under their birth names. I don't see how they could be a 'trade mark' so to speak unless there was an intent to commit identity theft which would be a separate issue (which appears to be the case here)

I'm pretty sure the GP's point was that the US shouldn't have .gov/.mil etc, every country essentially has a form of government and military — And besides .gov.us would be more explicit.

No one? That's a rather brash statement to make. Here in Ireland I can count on zero hands how many people use credit cards on a day to day basis. Debit cards are the norm in much of the EU I would assume.

Equally, neither is the budget. Load isn't an excuse.

As another post has commented, in Ireland we indeed use C13 cables, and it's pretty common to use this term for that here !

With physical access, sure. The same could be said for shutdown with physical access. Nothing stopping the user without group membership from holding down the power button or unplugging the kettle cable.

React Native is essentially just writing web apps, once RN has css grid I will be happy enough with everything it has.

There's something to be said for writing web apps in RN purely for the option of porting to iOS, Android and even MacOS/Windows now.

What I'd love to see with this is a way to use supabase auth itself as an idP/SAMP provider. Have your tools (back-office tools and what not) written in native supabase, or have multiple supabase projects with the one shared auth system. Could be better UX for Sysadmins than OpenLDAP and so forth.

I'm currently building something similar to just do that on top of supabase for work. Happy to see the developments with Supabase Auth anyway.

I'm working on several RN + Supabase projects and it just works !

There were a few kinks initially, like URL polyfil being missing from RN and the need for AsyncStorage alongside supabase.js but they've all been rectified by the team or made more clear using their Expo instructions in the docs — Although maybe it'd be clearer for people that the expo guide is for RN? People who haven't started using RN might not know the connection?

It's such a pleasant stack, we're experimenting currently with edge functions in place of an API in certain places, so far it's just to use Cloudflare Turnstile to insert contact form records into a database, but it's super trivial.

Excited for the future of edge functions!

(Disclaimer: I work as an online Tutor for an Irish EduTech company which teaches children ages 8-18 to code via after-school and weekend classes.)

This article has the right idea. Our style of teaching varies on the kids age. Younger kids (8-11) are treated much like school children, the teacher presents a topic, kids are given activities to do which they screenshare, then we work through them as a class. This is done in Scratch, mostly.

As the kids get older we take a more hands-off approach, we have tonnes of exercises which take kids through Java via Processing. Learning variables by moving shapes, if statements by adding constraints to those moving shapes, collision detection by moving the mouse around and watching shapes change color as they collide, in the hopes to build their confidence to start building their own games.

This is a highly adaptable form of teaching, although it's only really possible and practical as we have such small class sizes, allowing tutors like me to be able to spend ample time with teach student when issues arise.

Younger students often have the enthusiasm, but they don't know where to guide it, this lends itself well to a lecture then activity format where there's at most a 7-8 minute period of "lecture" followed by an equal amount of activity time.

The older kids often don't need the "lecture" part at all, rather we set them more and more challenging exercises and explain things individually as issues crop up, it allows them to use their own problem solving and initiative and we have seen some excellent programmers come through because of this (some of whom have began working with us as Tutors after they turned 18!)
