Re: Stop with the "programming" crap!
This is turning into my old-timers' reminiscence day.
But here goes.
In the 60s and 70s when I was at school we all had to learn woodwork and metalwork.
While a bit of cutting and how to do some DIY might be useful, the real reason behind this was that we were being trained to do working class jobs, as envisaged by the powers that be. Factory fodder. (And already out of date even then).
Today the kids all have to do "coding".
Coding- is- just- the- new -metalwork.
