What can an 8-year-old build in 45 minutes with the assistance of AI?
My daughter has been learning to code with @cursor_ai and it's mind-blowing🤯
Here are highlights from her second coding session. In 45 minutes she built a chatbot powered by @CloudflareDev Workers AI 👀
What a sight! We caught the Alpha #FLTA005 launch from SteamHead’s backyard. Human beings are awesomesauce!

Certain types of sea urchins will pick up a shell with their tube feet and ‘wear’ it, with a behavior known as “covering reaction”, mainly because they shy away from light.
So aquarium enthusiasts 3D-printed tiny hats and they actually wear them.

In 1968, LEGO released "Electronic"; a train that you could run and stop via a whistle. Now, 55 years later, my pupils have done the same with a new Lego train and using the Micro:Bit and some coding. @LEGO_Group @microbit_edu @LEGO_Education @microbit101 – at Tienen, België
#OctoStudio was a hit with the maker educators in Shenzhen! No friction start - 5 secs to start creating and language options are a gigantic plus 🧡

Obsessed with the "Beam" feature in @OctoStudioApp!
Here's a #OctoStudio light installation using 5 phones (!!!) and some tissue paper. octostudio.org
🫱🫲 Create and play together using "Beam" blocks!
Beam blocks make it possible to create collaborative #OctoStudio projects using Bluetooth. Send or receive a beam from any phone nearby to make something happen.
