How much longer

[DR Hayden]

How much longer are we going to have to endure this political noise on Go's otherwise helpful web site?

Now that I have begun teaching after-school programming classes again, it so far has been a source of constant distraction in my classes, causing some students to posture one way or another, and just ruining all the fun of teaching (and learning) programming, and Go.

Additionally, the message seems utterly unrelated to Go.

Thank you.

Hi DR,

If your students see the web site only through your stream, or if you are in control of the students' browsers (because, for example, it is a live classroom training with computers provided by the school), you can use a browser plugin like uBlock Origin that lets you block specific content permanently. I just tried it with the banner on golang.org and it works.

Of course, this does not hide the banner from your students when they visit the site directly from their own devices, but you can tell them to do the above at their end, too, if they feel distracted by the banner.

Best,
Christoph
