Coding: Prisoner to programmer – BBC News
Computer software, apps and websites are all made using coding languages or code for short. But despite the importance of coding, there is a major global shortage of people with the right skills. One group in South Africa is working to change that and hopes to create better opportunities for former prisoners. Brothers For All is an organisation founded by former criminals who now teach coding both in poor neighbourhoods and in prison.

Christa Pike: 911 calls reveal chaos after failed execution and other stories | Global News Podcast
Authorities in the US state of Tennessee have released dramatic phone calls that were made to the emergency services after the botched execution of Christa Pike. They show there was chaos and confusion as emergency responders tried to work out whether a request for help in the execution chamber was genuine and not a prank call, allegedly leading to a delay in the inmate being taken to hospital. Christa Pike, who killed Colleen Slemmer in 1995, was given two lethal injections that failed to kill her. Her case is now in uncharted territory as she is thought to be the only person to have survived an execution attempt by lethal injection.

This video contains distressing details.
Violence against women and girls in Iraq is widespread, but under reported, according to UN experts.
For incidents of sexual violence, there are no official figures. Human rights campaigners in the country say more needs to be done to protect women who speak out. They say threats and incitement against survivors should be investigated as crimes.
BBC Arabic’s Sally Nabil has been to Baghdad to speak to women who say family and social pressures discouraged them from speaking out, but have now decided to break their silence.

They're using ubuntu, that's nice.
I don't use Ubuntu myself really (have installed it on my parents laptop though), I use other Linux distributions.
Even though I don't know them in person I already like these guys, f*ck Windows. XD
Btw, don't want to be a know-it-all, but HTML is a markup language, it isn't really programming in the sense of stating commands in an algorithm to the computer.
It still has certain syntax etc. of course, it's a form of 'code', but it's not programming in the strict sense.

This seems like a bad idea.
People in prison usually are wronged by society or come from poverty. With a skill set like this, they may become hackers.
