100%! Thanks!

You're right! Let's play...

You are 100% right. Kids are moving super fast. I might just buy my son that console and not wait that long for something that might not be announced, and available anytime soon.

Thanks @runjake! I haven't considered Chromebooks before. I did know the tradeoff price/value was that good!

@nextos, thanks! We'll surely go the Linux road.

Thank you, @kamphey! I never heard of Playdate before. And that's absolutely AWESOME!!!!!! Thank you so much!

I am not sure either to know or understand what kids want. We are slowly getting into the "you're boring and don't understand me" phase.

I would like him to build things and start developing a bit of discipline and willpower before adding games and consoles to the mix.

Video games are super great. But without willpower and discipline, they can become a bit too addictive.

There is maybe a line between "enjoying what I've built" and "enjoying what other have built". Having a bit of both should be great.

The other perk of a mechanical keyboard is that it will make his hands work out a bit. And we will be able to hear it should he try to dodge the time limitation...

@al_borland, thank you for your very detailed response. My son also plays Minecraft on my iPad and listens to podcasts and stories on it. It could be cool for his to be able to do this autonomously on his device so I can be able to use mine for frequently.

Hi @markus_zhang! That could be a PI400. Maybe with Linux, but that would be super cheap and flexible. Thank you for the idea!!

Thanks @hiAndrewQuinn. I want to design a process that is as resilient as possible. And, I 100% agree with you on the importance of growing up in a Linux/OSS environment. Anything is possible, as long as you give yourself the chance to learn a bit more and go a bit deeper. And, if something is missing, that's an opportunity to contribute and help thousands of other people. That's something!

@ziggyzecat, thank you so much for your super detailed answer. I'm indeed looking for a low budget at first. He is on the spectrum and super smart, but his hands are not his best allies. Despite all his efforts and work with specialists, he remains clumsy and might involuntarily damage his computer. Cheap and fixable is a good thing. Things will get much better with time.

I love the idea of building the network as a family project with him!!!

Thanks.That's certainly the safest option until I can be 100% of parental control and the discipline that goes with it.

Thanks

Thanks Neya. I'm still grateful for WordPress, as I also owe a nice chunk of my career to it.

And, I also agree with you that the admin UI is pretty solid. This is impressively simple to put together any kind of content in minutes.

Yet, the performance and resource consumption are telling another story.

If I'm moving away for my personal (unvisited) blog, WordPress will still remain dear to my heart. And I know that, if I ever had to being a freelance full-stack designer and developer, I'll happily work back on WordPress for my customers.

Thanks. I spent many many years with WordPress, and I loved it for many years. Once I started seriously leveling up with other tools, such as Symfony or Laravel, the standards enforced in WordPress were insufficient.

I know WordPress future is still bright and getting better with every release. I love its community. But my personal decision is to move aside.

Thanks for the warning. I'll get in touch with them. If I have to rephrase the title, I'll go with "Why I'm leaving WordPress", because it is also the stage were I'm at on my (very long) journey with that CMS. I started web development with it.

Here is my journey in tech, from political design to product advocacy, exploring foundational tools' essential but often overlooked role in creating strategic visions.

In "Ways and Means," I reflect on my past work, my shift toward product leadership, and my ongoing mission to design sustainable and desirable futures.

I'm back to blogging on my personal blog. I'd like to spend more time experimenting and creating things. I wish to document my process of building tools and art, and some other random stuff. Make things, tell stories. That's what I am into those days.
