My son started with Scratch and did that for a few years. Then he tried Pico-8 when he was about 10 years old and got really interested on it. About a year ago, he tried Godot, and has been using it since. He is mostly a self-learner so he was able to pick up each of these on his own. I only gave him suggestions on what to try.

I would recommend starting with Scratch as many have suggested. It is easier to pick up than other options, and kids can always move onto something more complex later on.

There is also Arcade MakeCode (https://arcade.makecode.com) which is similar to Scratch.

Some of my son's projects:

Did you mean hantavirus? According to the CDC [0] squirrels do not carry that virus.

They have recounted the votes in Georgia like 2 or 3 times. Wisconsin was also recounted once. I didn't check the other states.

Thank you! I will check out the side with my kiddo.

Do you have any suggestions for guitar lesson sites?

I also get the flu shot every year but I always catch the flu.

Yes, but not always. He opposed the government option. Quoting the article [0]:

> ... "if the bill remains what it is now, I will not be able to support a cloture motion before final passage." In other words, Lieberman will support a filibuster. "I can't see a way in which I could vote for cloture on any bill that contained a creation of a government-operated-run insurance company," Lieberman said.

After watching the presentation of Zelda, I would say yes.

Thanks for taking the time of answering my question.

> Obama was voted in on the promise of change, as all we got was a watered down health care bill and the ability for gays to get married.

While I agree with the general sentiment, specially since they had majorities and they couldn't get a much better health care bill, we got more than that. For instance:

- Consumer Financial Protection Bureau

- Dodd-Frank

Democrats can still filibuster a repeal as republicans won't hold a supermajority in Senate.

Seems to be true, per google's webcache: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:le7oSCj...

Looks like only highlighting support. I would love to know if there are plans to improve C++ support.

Yes, it does support tokens.

They do for the numbered lines: http://datamine.mta.info/

The MTA already provides real time data for the numbered lines [1] and some buses [2].

While the Premier League rights seem to be quite expensive, I wouldn't go to the Lithuanian 3rd Division :) Bundesliga seems much more approachable [1]. Rights costs are €70 million in the current cycle, and close to €150 million in the next. I am sure that the portuguese and italian leagues would also be more affordable. It would be quite interesting to know costs for La Liga (Spanish). One may also be able to approach the rights owner with some more interesting ideas, like instead of paying all upfront, they will get a high % per user that purchased a match. Not sure how would that go.

Anyway this is just an idea, and it would take someone with good financial resources to undertake this project.

Netflix for Sports. But not quite the same. There wouldn't be just 1 subscription were you get all. You would be able to pay per game and as well a pass for all games of a certain team. You would be able to watch any games live or any other time of your convenience. It would be cool also to have just 'a show main highlights of the game'.

Prices per game should be relatively cheap, like 1.99 or 2.99; except some cases like championship finals.

I would try first to secure the rights to show some of the European soccer leagues and championships as they should be easier to get than any of the main American leagues. Hopefully none of the US networks have an exclusivity agreement.

Couldn't you already do this with Netflix or Hulu? Just start with the 2nd episode?

We also have Hulu+, and have never been required to link with our current cable provider (which we don't have at all).

I personally enjoy both Netflix and Hulu+. They are different use cases. Hulu+ for current shows, while Netflix for the rest. The only thing I dislike from Hulu is the ads.
