Ever bought a programmable robot for a child?

I'm hesitating between Vex Go and Lego Education Spike for my 7 years old son who's interested in robotics.

Vex has a good organization system which is a big plus, but Lego looks like it has more cool things you can do with it.

I wanted to compare what customers thought but I have trouble finding indormation so I'm turning to you. Anyone has had experience with these products or any other?

Thank you

  • "Catching up on emails" is something you must do and can take a lot of time depending on your role and circumstances, though. My interepretation of this answer would depend on if the answer is for "what I'm doing right now" or "what I've been working on today".

  • Raising a flag
  • Doesn't "men and boys" have exactly the same meaning though?

    I don't feel deshumanized for being called a male.

    Disclaimer: I don't use the noun "female" because I know some find it offensive.

  • Thank you for your answer. Here, page 57-58, it mentions people throwing their waste onto the street at night in Ancient Rome. There's even legal advice from the time relating to being hit by waste.

    Les ratés du transport scolaire empêchent 7000 écoliers de prendre leur autobus chaque jour au Québec, révèle une nouvelle étude. Le niveau de profits engendré par l’industrie pourrait pourtant permettre d’améliorer les conditions des chauffeurs et, donc, le service rendu, estiment les chercheurs.

    Do we have older metalheads here?

    I was wondering if we have older metalheads here?

    I've been educating myself on the history of metal, and that made me wonder if anyone here is much older than I am (early thirties here) and has seen some of that history.

    How did you get into metal? How old were you?

    Any interesting experience you'd like to share? Things that have changed?

    How were metal and metalheads perceived where you lived?

    www.lapresse.ca La Place Versailles démolie pour construire 5000 logements

    La Place Versailles sera démolie petit à petit pour céder la place à des immeubles résidentiels dont certains culmineront à 25 étages, selon les plans présentés par les propriétaires du site aux autorités municipales.

    La Place Versailles démolie pour construire 5000 logements

    Je vis proche, et je le fréquente souvent. Pour ma part, je trouve ça un peu triste, parce que j'y trouve des éléments architecturaux à l'intérieur qui sont intéressants, témoins d'une autre époque, mais c'est pour le mieux, car je ne peux qu'être pour une plus grande densification, et la Place Versailles a un stationnement vraiment excessif.

    How to find more of this black metal with dungeon synth melodies?

    Hey,

    I'm generally more into melodeath, power metal, folk metal, and epic heavy metal. I sometimes listen to black metal, but I'm not a big fan of it. Unless it's blackened something (death, folk...)

    But some black metal songs are something else for me.

    Keys to the Astral Gates and Mystic Doors

    This one has absolutely beautiful dungeon synth over the raw black metal, and I love it.

    Winter Lantern - Elven Blood

    Listen to "Her Body Broken in the Bloody Snow".

    This one also has excellent dungeon synth, together with black metal. Very good songs, their only flaw, which pisses me to no end, is the unnecessary effect on the vocals.

    Now that I'm typing it out, I guess that what I'm looking for are bands that put emphasis on dungeon synth, but are still metal? But how do I look for more? Is there even a genre that I can search to find more of that?

    I don't know subgenres of BM well (sorry, I'm definitely not trve kvlt enough), I tried:

    • Raw BM: this sounds to be typical raw production second wave like Mayhem
    • Melodic BM: seems like pure melodic BM (without death, or punk, etc.) hardly exist. Found good bands, but not what I'm looking for
    • USBM: generally not what I'm looking for
    • Lofi BM: might be the best match? Found Nihilitic Depths - Beneath Forgotten Ruins which is quite similar, but bands described lofi BM don't always correspond

    Any help is welcome. Suggestions of bands or albums welcome too. After all, there might not be a name for that.

    Thanks
