    A cellular enabled Apple Watch might be a good choice if they can wear/charge a watch. It's pretty easy to navigate and doesn't require them to have their own phone. It's pretty ea…

    Everyone knew the old paradigms would still win in the end. The master’s tools will not destroy the master’s house, after all. But the people made (more) wealthy and powerful by th…

    I'm going to give an unpopular (in the sense of raw user numbers) suggestion: Swift deployed to AWS Lambda. You can use a shared database, deployment is easy, the language is pleas…

    I would suggest an iPad with Codea. Codea has a game called 'Cargo Bot' that teaches the basics of algorithmic thinking without the nomenclature that trips up a lot of people. The …

    I would suggest using the video feed from each drone to localize it (since it's in a known space). You'll need to do a few passes beforehand and record the background. Doing a puzz…
