Ask HN: How do you teach Comp.Sci to your 6-10yo kids?

Hacker News - Mon, 10/28/2024 - 6:52pm

By Comp.Sci I mostly meant: coding basics, logics, sparking curiosity with fiddling with tech in general, develop their own little projects.

They have already played with things like Scratch but it eventually becomes repetitive and they lose interest. They have played with the Turing Tumble and similar. Robotics might be a nice thing to try.

We could make 3 categories, resources they can consume with your guidance (1), resources they can consume alone (2), and games (3).

I'm particularly interested in (1), what resources/projects have education in mind while having an adult guiding them through it?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Show HN: Built a plant ID app after seeing friend waste €23/month

Hacker News - Mon, 10/28/2024 - 6:37pm

My friend was spending €23/month (GPT) to plant ID during her forest walks. After building her a simple solution, she loved it and encouraged me to share it with others - so here it is!

This is actually my second HN. Your feedback on my first post was eye-opening (thanks!).

I'm bootstrapping this as a student and planning to grow it beyond just plant identification. Working on adding community features and leaderboards - turning it into a cozy corner of the internet for plant parents. Think less "utility app" and more "home for plant enthusiasts".

Open for feedback from the HN community - especially from fellow plant lovers! Get 30 free credits to try it out and let me know what you think.

For those who ask - this is not just LLM wrapper.
