Must children's use of time be "productive"? They have their whole lives to be productive - outright banning video games is not the solution in my eyes

Excel? How does that work - first time I'm hearing of it being used in that way

This is incredible! Putting on my holiday to-do list :)

being sentenced to life for hacking is out of proportion

He wasn’t sentenced to life.

He was ordered to remain under supervised medical care until a doctor determines that he is mentally fit to stop causing harm. This is as a result of both his hacking, his assaults on caretakers and destruction of physical property.

He also told the court that if he was released he would go right back to doing crimes.

During the school year, teachers put in significantly more than the 8 hours they're physically at school. Marking, course planning, etc take up quite a bit of time that teachers must put in outside of work.

Honestly it depends on the teacher. You're describing the ones who give a shit.

Any resources you'd recommend for learning those principles/standards used in more "rigorous" fields? thanks :)

OP’s article is a good start. For avionics, look up DO-178C, Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification.

I used to be your daughter! Super quiet, got all my work done on time, was seen as "gifted", but would lose absolutely everything (and I mean everything).

I really suggest some sort of setup to maintain structure as she gets older - being aware of a diagnosis or having medication / therapy would've really saved a couple painful years in university for me

I'm confused as to why you're bringing up "being cancelled" - it's not relevant to the conversation in the slightest.

because the alternative to ghosting is to say something. and saying something may result in being cancelled.

Would be incredible if it was the same person

It obviously is

Have you given letterboxd a shot? Can be surprisingly hard
