My GCSE results are,

Maths: B

ICT: B

Science(Double Award): CC

French: E

History: E

English: D

English Lit: D

Media Studies: G

Systems & Control: U

Purposely failed Media + Systems, was only dissapointed that I couldn't get a U in media although I scribbled cat pictures all over my exam paper in systems and media :s.

B was the highest ICT result in the school, teacher prediected everyone's coursework A* level and after he said that about mine I stopped working on it. Got enough to go to sixth form so yay :D.

I'm loving college :D I'm studying the AVCE in advanced computing or something like that, along with AS business studies, AS chemistry and AS Citizenship or some crap like that. I don't even want to do chemistry but because of my good grades I have to do 5 A Levels :(

English as a Foreign Language. :))

ICT at A Level sucks (speaking as an ex student here who did it for 2 years). The coursework was the biggest waste of time ever, and it didn't teach me anything worthwhile (other than to use the print screen button and use word :laugh:: ), plus the marking of the coursework was unfairly weighted IMO (i.e. sweet f.a. for any system you made at the end of it that worked and did its job as per spec. but lots for producing a tree killing telephone directory sized printout with loads of screenshots - guess what happened to mine at the last minute. :whistle:: ).

College was good, but with hindsight I wish I had picked something else that I would have liked.

    • We had no idea as kids how much time and energy it took to be an adult 😅
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
    • I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
