> You’d make twice as much coding boring business logic, it’s not “cool”, but you get to sleep at home.
And, possibly just as importantly, you'll have time for gaming!

fwiw the article is a NYT reporter interviewing another NYT reporter about "tech":
> I asked my colleague Erin Griffith, who reports on tech start-ups and venture capital, to assess the current moment of fear for technology.

I collected data for a while, then decided I wanted a different car. Still had fun writing that script though.
Just something as simple as having books shelved higher than you head and getting to use a stool to get up to them - that makes finding books so fun!
The more I think about it, the physical is just so important to the experience. I guess it’s for this same reason I hate ebook versions of picture books. The interaction just cannot match what you get to do with a real book.
Not to say this isn’t a worthy goal or interesting problem-every kid should have an awesome library nearby. Just wow, going in person is amazing.
I'm father of a 4 year old, and we live a couple of blocks from the library. Seeing how his interactions with the shelves has changed over the past couple of years has been really interesting. At first it was enough to look at the covers and spines, then he could pull himself up to the bins of board books, and eventually started grabbing from the shelves himself.
And like you, he loads up with a little bit of everything (it doesn't matter what he chooses, we check it out) and we take it home to read and see what sticks.
It's probably no surprise that one of the most exciting trips he can make is driving to PDX to go to Powell's.
There's probably a UI genius out there with great ideas for it, but I don't see how anything can beat going to a library in person.
If someone can tell me how to set up VSCode to do this better, I would love to know. However I also need to be able to support other engineers who typically don’t work on the package but might need to drop into the code. It is much easier to tell them to download the community edition of pycharm and start working than it is to walk them through setting up another editor/ide.
I don’t particularly like pycharm, and don’t use it when I don’t have to, but in this case it’s the right tool for the job. (So far.)

At least from Apple Maps, they’ve all got a USPS but no bank.
He was watching the news and they interviewed the richest man in Canada. The interviewer asked, "How did you make your fortune?"
"Well, when I came to Canada, I had nothing but five cents. I used those five cents to buy an apple. I sold the apple for ten cents, and then bought two apples to sell. I sold those apples for twenty cents, and then I got a telegram that my uncle had died and left me three billion dollars."
Well, an uninitiated third party might do something like open the gate to the cage of rats that's factory installed in each McFlurry machine, or flip the "Inject Asbestos Pellets In Ice Cream Mix" toggle to yes.
Edit: the wiki page you linked has it in simplified and traditional characters.
They’re great devices, and you can even download the Kindle app and read your DRM’d books on them :)
I'll be emailing you. My wife and I are starting to work on a shortlist of countries to consider as immigration targets. I'm not interested in my children growing up in a "free market" healthcare system.
