The best feature of any software on the internet remains the ability to screen out a sender on @heyhey email with one click from @37signals. Google could never do this on Gmail. Shoutout @dhh @jasonfried. Has saved me so many hours. Also is great for anti-phishing.

Great creativity with the Tynker app!.

I see lots of posts online saying that you shouldn’t have meetings and to get rid of meetings and meetings are a waste of time. What I hear from our customers? They like meeting and want more meetings. We meet with our customers virtually, and we travel to meet with our.

At CodeHS, we help districts launch future-proof CS programs with teacher-first approaches. We've helped thousands of schools make CS accessible to ALL students. Want to bring these benefits to your district?. Book a call with our team:

Strong teacher development, engaging curriculum, real-world assessment tools, and administrator support across grades. These elements create sustainable programs that benefit all students. How will your district respond?

I’ve visited 300+ schools teaching computer science. The best ones don’t treat CS as an afterthought. They prioritize full CS courses, not just electives, but core parts of the curriculum. This research confirms what I’ve seen firsthand:

Early math preparation is critical. Strong math skills open the door to CS success. Targeted outreach helps underrepresented groups see themselves in tech careers.

Students in the top 25% of math performance are nearly 3× more likely to take CS than those in the bottom 25%. This creates a compounding effect where privileged students get further ahead. Those who could benefit most are left behind. The solution requires new approaches:.

The opportunity gap worsens when we look at who takes CS courses when available. Asian students see the largest enrollment increases. Black and Hispanic students experience smaller gains. The math achievement gap creates another barrier:

Despite this evidence, CS education faces a major access problem. Since 2017, states requiring high schools to offer CS have grown from 4 to 30. Only 8 states mandate students take any form of CS. Millions of students never get exposed to this subject:

The benefits are even greater for underrepresented groups. Women, low-income students, and Black students who take CS in high school see larger gains in both degree attainment and earnings. These findings should reshape our curriculum priorities:

High school CS courses make students 5% more likely to earn a CS Bachelor's degree. This exposure builds confidence in programming and computational thinking. It opens doors to engineering, data science, and tech-driven fields.

A study from the University of Maryland reveals something district leaders need to see. Students who take just one computer science course increase employment chances by 2.6%. Annual earnings jump by 8%. But the impact goes beyond money.

This one high school class boosts early-career earnings by 8%. But only 5% of students take it. It’s not required in most schools. And it’s quietly shaping who becomes tomorrow’s tech leaders: 🧵
