Forget making license plates: Select group now taught HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.[^]
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Making license plates is fine, but they need to learn CSS first--- otherwise, on some cars the numbers and letters will be all smooshed up on the left side, on others they might be too tiny to read or too big to fit, and on others they might be randomly floating around in who-knows-what order.

 You're right; making license plates without learning Cold Steel Stamping would be difficult. 
Edit: Actually since I'm not sure about the details of the process, maybe that should be Cheap Steel Stamping.

Where I live, they are printed now. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Where's that? Other than temporaries for new cars I don't think I've ever seen a plate without raised numbers/letters.

You a native or transplant?
I think Delaware prints them too, it's one of those Yankee states anyway.
If that's your plate we now know your birth month too.

Transplant. So few natives left.

I'll save you the trouble. My SSN is 123-45-6789. There, take my identity and see if you can do better with it than I have.

Metal, I think. I'd have to go look closely.

There's a fine line between crazy and free spirited and it's usually a prescription.
I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

There is nothing new here. I was teaching computer basics, including programming, to inmates at an open prison in England as part of a rehabilitation scheme as a moonlighting job back when I was a university professor in the early 1980s. One of my students went on to take a Computer Science degree course at a leading university (not mine).

It would be interesting to see if this particular person did not end up back in prison, but rather went on to be a productive member of society, writing null reference exceptions.

I got a thank-you letter from him when he graduated but didn't hear any more from him.

.. and we have to teach them about web security, SQL injection etc..
They will use this newfound knowledge to society's benefit, won't they?

Californians are jealous that they're not the hacking capital of the world, so they're doing something about it.

I would think 4 days a week for 6 months in a class of 18 taught by a real world professional would turn out some bloody good coders. They would certainly put the Q&A to shame!
