Apple's Tim Cook asked President Trump for coding requirement at US schools - report

On one hand:

At a Monday technology summit with U.S. President Donald Trump, Apple CEO Tim Cook reportedly suggested making programming a mandatory subject in the country's schools.

Mandatory? Not sure about that. Strongly promoted, certainly.

On the other:

A bill has been filed to authorize the [North Carolina] State Board of Education to develop and offer a firearm education elective course for high school students.

The document, dated April 5, says,"The State Board of Education shall develop and identify a comprehensive firearm education course that can be offered as an elective at the high school level."

As long as guns are legal, people should be trained in how to properly use them!

I would not want to be a high school gun instructor, however.
