https://clojureverse.org/t/perils-of-accidental-complexity-in-re-frame/6254/6 some interesting criticism of re-frame that may or may not be applicable to hoplon

2020-07-21T16:43:26.326100Z

(i think it depends on which framework you choose to make out of hoplon πŸ˜† )

flyboarder 2020-07-21T16:44:18.326400Z

I already disagree with the summary πŸ˜†

2020-07-21T16:46:32.326700Z

2020-07-21T16:47:12.327400Z

@flyboarder btw how's it going man?

hello guys! πŸ™‚ my daughter is an ipad "user" since she was less than a year old. she has already started interacting with it by touching before she was 2 years old. she is almost 6 years old now and i think she turned out well so far. she is playing simple games on it. drawing a lot with the paper app, but even more on actual paper. watches cartoons from netflix (deleted the utube app because of elsagate-like shit is just too easy to access). she regularly reviews photos on it, which are synced from my phone. uses the sample editor to record her singing in garage band. also connects her midi keyboard to garage band. teaches other kids how to use it...

but apart from that she rides the scooter since we was ~3 yrs old. started in-line roller skating and swimming about a year ago. spends a lot of time in our little above-ground pool either alone or with her friends. plays with the sand, shells and the dogs on the beach maybe 1-2 times a week. so i think we could strike a good balance between letting her interact with both the virtual and the physical world. so far...

and she started to ask me a few months ago to read bed-time stories to her. also asks me regularly to put on some music for the past year. im feeding her everything possible, from baroque classics to rock opera, folk and electronic. she listens to most of it in awe πŸ™‚

2 months ago she was captivated by the kirov ballet for 20 minutes. she watched it like as if she would need to take an exam from it afterwards πŸ™‚ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rJoB7y6Ncs

really good actually, how are things on your end?

2020-07-21T16:48:37.327700Z

weirdly great

2020-07-21T16:48:44.327900Z

good for us :thumbsup:

flyboarder 2020-07-21T16:49:09.328100Z

good to hear! seems some people in tech are actually making out pretty well, just hope everyone stays safe!

2020-07-21T16:50:13.328300Z

i forget,were you mostly WFH before also?

flyboarder 2020-07-21T16:50:21.328500Z

yep

flyboarder 2020-07-21T16:50:57.328700Z

we also use a co-working space, which has been empty, so private offices πŸ˜›

2020-07-21T16:51:01.328900Z

cool. yeah being WFH helped, altho we'd just moved to a new place and it's gonna be a long time before we can meet new friends 😐

flyboarder 2020-07-21T16:51:19.329100Z

yeah how did the move go?

2020-07-21T16:52:04.329300Z

it was last year so it was fine, but we were just starting to get settled when this all went down

flyboarder 2020-07-21T16:53:41.329500Z

yeah, thats rough - fam doing well tho?

flyboarder 2020-07-21T16:53:55.329700Z

im sure they are probably bored

2020-07-21T16:54:25.329900Z

hanging in there

2020-07-21T16:54:41.330100Z

yeah unfortunately my daughter is 4 and hanging out with kids is what she really needs at her stage

2020-07-21T16:55:42.330300Z

but she's gotten into legos, which has been awesome

flyboarder 2020-07-21T16:55:56.330500Z

yeah, my nephew is also 4 and obsessed with lego

2020-07-21T16:56:30.330700Z

their imagination carries them through

flyboarder 2020-07-21T16:56:49.330900Z

have you seen the Lego Playgrounds app?

2020-07-21T16:56:56.331100Z

i have not

flyboarder 2020-07-21T16:57:10.331300Z

she might be too young for sticking an iPad in front of her but

flyboarder 2020-07-21T16:57:21.331500Z

Lego AR for kids

flyboarder 2020-07-21T16:58:52.332100Z

Im personally really mixed about kids and tech, but there is huge opportunity for fun based learning and education

flyboarder 2020-07-21T16:59:48.332300Z

My thing is that behaviour reinforcement comes from them watching adults, which they don’t get with tech

2020-07-21T17:07:10.332600Z

that looks very cool, will definitely check it out

2020-07-21T17:07:13.332800Z

thanks for the pointer
