Mushroom Masala and garlic naan from Desi Chowrastha - Indian Eatery in Overland Park. Had this early in the year. It was very good. I like the "food hall," "food court" vibe of this newish Indian restaurant. #indianfood #KCeats #overlandpark #kcfoodiefinds

Interesting. Thanks for sharing that. I know that those programs are capable of some advanced operations, coding, and functionality. If I expand on the MS Office comment, it's a swipe at junior college comp sci intro classes that can be just low level MS Office tutorials. I've seen the textbooks and syllabi. Yikes!

The twins started high school today. One of them is taking a coding / programming course. I was wondering if they would learn Python or Scratch. At worse, MS Office. Java is on the menu! Wow, a serious language that I struggled for years to earn. A little. I still have the Big Java book on my bookshelf. My wheelhouse is Javascript, React, and PHP.

Yep. I can't scroll my FB for more than ten minutes before running across "suggested for you" pages that are fake news scams. I hide everything. Assholes set up fan pages, use AI to create fake stories, throw in some stolen news photos, and they get exposure.
