I Have been researching a lot recently and I am struggling to find clear guidelines on how to approach screen time with children.

There are some good rules I found on how to handle food (Parents are responsible for the what, when, and where of feeding and children are responsible for the how much and whether of eating).

But the screen time advice seems to conflict this approach somewhat. I often see sources advocating for a hard limit of screen time, which seems counterproductive in the context of how we approach teaching our children on managing gratification and self control.

I am keen to believe that providing viable alternatives and setting an example by our own non-screen quality family time should steer the child in the right direction.

Looking forward to your experiences and insight!

I am curious how many of you on the FIRE path have reached the retirement stage and how it's working out for you.

How do you spend your time? Is there any friction with your still employed friends and family? Do you miss work?

Thanks :)

Given the apparent quality of Apple's product and at least one other big player heavily invested (Meta) I am convinced that AR/VR will mature and become mainstream during my working years. How do I best prepare myself for the opportunities that will arise?

What I've gathered from my limited reading and research is the following:

1. The universe is fundamentally infinite and continuous, both on a macro and micro scale (infinitely large, and infinitely divisible)

2. Observation on a scale currently available to humanity interprets the continuous and infinite as finite and quantifiable - some information is lost in the process. A piece of reality we call an electron is shot at an another one, and we have learned how to observe the displacement of those pieces.

3. Quantum superposition is nothing but a translation of the reality of continuous fields into our quantifiable domain.

4. Measuring collapses the probability fields in a sense that no other way of measuring is available for us other than interpreting the continuous as a quantifiable and losing information in the process.

5. By repeating measurements and mapping the distribution out, we can get a rough estimate of the field that is observable through the interaction that we are using for measuring.

How far off am I? What are some good resources to read up on to deepen my understanding of what we currently know?

Thanks.

I am an experienced Software Engineer looking for a comprehensive CS curriculum to be used in teaching CS to family and friends. Learning should be fun, approachable and engaging. Most of the material I find online is in the form of courses and similar. I need something that would assist me in transferring my knowledge, while reminding me of concepts, methods, etc. I wonder if there are any ongoing projects in this space which cater to this specific need.

How do your deal with the never ending ambition that gnaws at you day and night unless you somehow advance your status position?
