This gets complicated when you need to start giving your kids some degree of independence. I would also argue this could be implemented in a more accessibility-oriented approach.

Also, not all 13-year-olds are of equal level of maturity/content appropriate material. I find it very annoying that I can’t just set limits like: no drug-referencing but idgaf about my kid hearing swear words.

On other machines: I do not want certain content to ever be displayed on my work machine. I’d like to have the ability to set that. Someone who has specific background may not want to see things like: children in danger. This could even be applied to their Netflix algorithm. The website: does the dog die, does a good job of categorizing these kinds of content.


But, in essence, they want to strip the ability of parents to give their kids the responsibility you describe. No letting your kids use social media, look adult content, or whatever else. It's simply banned.


So what happens if I spend 2 hours on a ticket, but submit it 10 minutes after someone else? Do you have people "reserve" tickets? What happens when someone just keeps high-value tickets "reserved" and prevents others from working on them? What if I submit a better solution? What if you find a bug in my solution but I'm not available to work on it for another week? Do I get 1/2, 3/4?


I've only ever used Git with Unity and as long as we're disciplined in our process, it's not a problem. It's free, scales to any size team for free, and lets us open source our projects easily.

I would be willing to consider Perforce, but it seems very expensive.

What is the industry standard means of open sourcing a Perforce repository?


Sign language is a pretty good option. There will be times when access to the technology used to produce her voice might be inconvenient or even unavailable. American Sign Language (ASL) is also probably much faster than typing in a lot of cases. I grant, this probably won't be as helpful out in the world where most people won't understand it, but in the comfort of home, being able to converse at the dinner table without a keyboard at your side might be preferable. I suggest you don't ignore this as a supplimental tool.


I should also point out that learning all of ASL isn't necessary for it to be helpful. "Yes", "No", and "Thank you" are pretty helpful on their own.
