• A 15 pound computer to inspire young programmers (2011)

  [Disclaimer: I work at the BBC.] ...later on, the BBC made[0] the micro:bit[1], another £15 (well, around £15 back then for the V1) computer to inspire young programmers. Funny to think that little did the BBC know that they'd be creating their own cheap computer. [0]: Well, the BBC didn't _make_ it exactly — rather, the development and manufacturing was subcontracted to third-party companies (though some people... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• And DigTech teachers willing to share?

  Https://microbit.org/ are really good in my experience too, maybe a little bit dated now and they seem to have lost momentum, but they're super cheap and providing something physical that you can actually code is pretty exciting to a lot of kids. Source: 11 months ago

As with the Raspberry Pi, the board alone is out of stock in most places, but you can buy a mini "kit" for a few dollars more, for example at parallax in the usa for $20, in stock. When you see a jumble of parts for sale "for the pi" or... Source: over 1 year ago

• Best Fanduel Slots? Reddit Suggestions?

  I'm want to try my luck with some online slots, and I've been hearing good things about Fanduel. But before I dive in, I've got a few questions and need some advice. Source: 11 months ago

• Chicago mayoral election: New poll sheds light on close race between Vallas, Johnson

  Vallas was tapped by Daley in 1990, and has been in the public eye ever since. He was trusted by some of our countries largest municipalities to turn around dead-end, hopeless schools. He touts many successes, and made enemies along the way (par for the course). He comes with baggage because he's been through multiple wars with big blue bureaucracies - I can't think of anyone that can come out of the other side of... Source: about 1 year ago
