    I hate when “computer class” is actually “how to be a good Windows subservient slave”.

        Because, as most other comments in this thread point out, the curriculum tends to be mostly quirky Windows specific bad habits. And not a solid foundational comprehension about how software and computers work. It imparts a narrow minded and practically analphabetical relationship with the technology that is a disservice to educational intent.

      I hate it, too. Coding on Windows? Forget about it. Terrible editors, terrible C compiler, terrible ad-riddled desktop environment. I have to bring my own laptop with NixOS to the school because I am just so used to it.
