The very same, but those days are long gone. Nowadays, I find myself steering my kids away from a career in tech. It's such a dismal place to be.

We really need some sort of home tech curriculum, like let a kid play around with a transistor, a 286, making an ascii game, like graduated engagement that tries to keep the stimulation growing with the knowledge instead of just getting hit with a consumption machine.

Basically a tool to help kids realize they can be makers and not just consumers or products.
