I was going to suggest the same game, guess the number. But instead of doing it in CLI, do it on her class calculator. If she's 11, she may already have something like a TI 82. These come with some form of BASIC (at least it had 30 years ago).
I remember that I did that about 30 years ago, and then because I had done it, I spent hours playing it.
Then if she likes that, you can make a 2 player tic-tac-toe, or a play-against-the-computer paper-rock-scissors. The fun is to start simple and then modify the game slowly. For example, in the guess a number, you could have funny answers for special numbers.
or a tame-the-unicorn game that's a bit like a tamagotchi, you can feed her, play with her, let her sleep, that kind of stuff, with very simple counters. In the end you can to ride on her back and be her best friend forever.
Anything that's turn-based, where you have very simple inputs that go in variables, check the variable against the game state, and then change the state in a basic fashion, and output something as text, and repeat.
Anything with a graphical game loop is going to be too much imo.
It is an issue because bitcoin is highly unpredictable.
These tools are good at predicting timeseries that are in fact quite predictable. Like insurances will use this to estimate the number of people who will die from cancer in the next year, the year after that, and so on up to 50 years in the future. The model will extrapolate the progresses made in cancer treatment from the current trend, etc. It is a prediction, cause it's still possible that a breakthrough comes in and suddenly people don't die from a certain form of cancer, but generally it should be roughly correct.
Bitcoin prices are a lot more chaotic, influenced by a ton of unrelated events that shape its path a certain way. There is absolutely no certainty that studying the shape of its past evolution will help in any way understand its future evolution.
Of course here I mean by studying its price alone. If you add more information, like who's behind each trend and why, you have a much better sense of what could happen next.
> Who's falling behind? What does falling behind even mean if the OP doesn't care about numbers and really doesn't want to play the social media game?
I think that's rather the point. The author feels that they are "falling behind" by the measure of the high energy social media creators, because they're not following the Ten Things You Must Know Before You Post (Number 7 Will Shock You!).
I think their placement is weird though. They really don’t tell you how to get there. Sometimes they are very far from the thing they advertise. And you really shouldn’t go off the motorway when you see the sign. It could be quite confusing when you actually are planning to go to that place.
Also a bunch of places that are shown in the sign are privately owned like zoos and recreation parks. These tend to be iconic ones but it still feels a little off.
Ha, I am very proud that I made that discovery independently as well. In the Light vs Dark theme, I settled on a light greyish green that is somewhat close to the one described here. It really does reduce eye fatigue.
Every time I read one of these, I am amazed by how much stuff superconductivity allows, and how limited we are because it needs ultra low temperatures.
So it's hard to imagine biological life (chemical life?) without water or carbon, since they're such good solvents and building blocks, but we can at least imagine electronic or mechanical life which don't require them.
But what you can't get away from is heat dissipation.
Any life will use energy will generate heat will need to dissipate heat to maintain homeostasis.
Could you dissipate enough heat to exist at <10K, to maintain a technological civilization? Or would you be reduced to supercooling your entire environment?
Are there naturally occurring pools of liquid helium out there in the universe, maintained by natural processes, or are you left with vacuum relying on radiative cooling?
