   Code.org is much easier to use than Thunkable.First of all names say everything.Second,it has more modes than just "drag-and-drop".

   👍 Pros:    Pretty design|Price|Easy layout

   👎 Cons:    Unproffesional|Lack support by phone|No sign up cost

• Show HN: CronGPT – Generate cron expressions with ChatGPT

  I made this minisite so I wouldn't have to watch users write their own cron expressions in Val Town[1] during user onboarding calls. The worst part was that after they'd figure out the cron, then they'd forget to do the timezone conversion to UTC.

  My school hosts the unit tests for digital literacy on code.org as the "assessment day" at the bottom of the unit. Is there any way to view the test before it is unlocked by the teacher on a student account? Source: 8 months ago

• Advice for my autistic son

  My four year old was kicked out of his preschool class, and the school recommended I set him up with applied behavioral analysis.
