Oh I can assure you it’s alive and well. As a Middle School CS teacher it gets annoying. Each time I have a kid declare to the class, “Look, I’m a hacker,” I have to stop what I’m doing and explain to them that no that’s not hacking. It has started some good conversations about how they can hack stuff in their own home, but mostly it’s a bit of a distraction. So, thanks for the teachable moments throughout the years.
Ahah I live to hear stuff like this! You are welcome! :D I actually receive a fair amount of email from kids with clear school emails and they always put a smile on my face :D
Thanks for creating this site! As someone who has lead a programming club for high schoolers, it was an amazing resource to show budding programmers, let them play around with it, and then tell them how to build it themselves! It's a great little project to learn programming.
Thanks for making this! I still hop on occasionally for when I have the itch or when trying out a new keyboard or desk arrangement. I find I still type the best on my 1989 IBM Model M. (Average: 86 WPM)
I'm pretty sure it was also featured in the first episode of Russian Doll. The screen wasn't zoomed in enough for me to verify it, but it looked very similar. Maybe if you watch it in 4k you can tell for sure.
I can honestly say it 100% bootstrapped me in the programming world and it's been one of the best things I ever!
