Dev looking for marketing co-founder in edTech.

Devs don't teach programming in schools, because of small salary and loads of stress. Students don't seek programming, because it seems hard and boring.

Tinkr is bringing programming to schools. We offer any school teacher (physics for example) an opportunity to teach programming in their school. Training, materials, live coding environment, lessons and a professional coder helping in the background - everything a teacher needs to teach the class.

Tinkr also makes coding awesome by letting students write real-world webapps like websites, chat and multiplayer games that they can share to friends (they actually work, with database and everything).

I'm based in Estonia, looking for people that want to scale to the world, primarily missing a marketing person, but also designers, sales and wouldn't say no to dev help either.

First full-length course has been done and paid for. Students were thrilled.

Spent 3 months making this metrics dashboard, where you can send any JSON or data and it'll pick out charts from it. Best part is - no 3rd party service is left out and the learning curve is super shallow (just make a request with any data).

The backend is very stable, but UX at the moment is poor, since I didn't manage to reach my target audience and am still thinking how to continue.

> When will AI researchers learn? There is a saying in computer science: “Garbage in, garbage out”. The most remarkable thing about these stories is that the biggest companies, IBM, Microsoft, Amazon, all chose the worst corners of the internet as teaching material. Places that are widely known as the bridges of trolls. One can scarcely believe such naivety, and yet they keep doing it. Perhaps they are only “experimenting”, but that does not ring true for commercial products. More likely their goals are only feasible with current AI by prioritising quantity over quality. Or perhaps these stories are not entirely accurate. After all, I only learned them from the internet.

0.3.10 Beta - Popcorn Is Love - 31 October 2016

No info anywhere. Did it actually change?

Firefox actually has 2 domain specific search-shortcut features, but both take time to set up and then is not intuitive at all. Chrome just blows it out of the water.

Also wtf - if I type "hello" and press enter in the search bar in FF, it puts a "www." in front and ".com" at the end.. like holy hell, if I knew the domain I'll write .com myself, it really is no problem. I even went ahead and googled for 15 minutes and disabled this in some deep settings somewhere, but it still does it when I press enter too fast... damnit, it frustrates me every single day.

I hope they see this and fix this very-frustratingly-obvious anti-UX behaviour..
