On May 31, 2014, in the Milwaukee suburb of Waukesha, Wisconsin, two 12-year-old girls attempted to stab their classmate to death. Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier’s violence was extreme, but what seemed even more frightening was that they committed their crime under the influence of a figure born by the internet: the so-called “Slenderman”. Yet the even more urgent aspect of the story, that the children involved suffered from undiagnosed mental illnesses, often went overlooked in coverage of the case.

Yet this is the system the United States ended up with, a jerry-built structure now so rickety and near collapse that a strong wind or a hot day can bring it to a grinding halt. The grid is now under threat from a new source: renewable and variable energy, which puts stress on its logics as much as its components.

Code Gamers Developement
Sad to say, this mom needed to listen to this audiobook to understand what my kids have been trying to explain to me about coding. What's funny is they can understand this, but not the math class. the author did a great job explaining variables and objects as loops. I love chapter 9 when they go into explaining how to build an adventure. The accompanying PDF will be helpful when I go over this again with the kids. I just got cool mom credits.
