<p>Six years old might be too early to incentivize screen use, though I'd encourage you to research this yourself rather than taking internet comments at face value.<p>That said, I think there's a distinction between screens and computing itself. You could introduce her to computing power through voice interfaces: a smart speaker connected to an LLM could let her search, learn, and interact with information hands-free. You'd have control over the system prompts for safety, and could whitelist reliable sources for her queries.<p>Yes, visual information density is higher than audio, but the downsides of early screen exposure might outweigh that efficiency gain. Voice-first computing could be a middle ground, she gets to explore what computers can do without the attention/addiction patterns that screens introduce.<p>Just one perspective, obviously. Worth doing your own research on the developmental tradeoffs.</p>

<p>When I have that need, this is what I do.<p>I use the info from here as context:<p><a href="https://github.com/InteractionDesignFoundation/add-event-to-calendar-docs/blob/main/services/google.md" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/InteractionDesignFoundation/add-event-to-...</a><p>I load it via a custom system prompt or skill, then pass my specific need, thought, or anything I want to remember in the future, including events with a certain frequency, as part of the prompt.<p>From that, I render the URLs needed to create the events directly in my personal calendar via the browser. This part could probably be automated better, but honestly I'm lazy sometimes.<p>And that's it.<p>I also try not to overdo it with high-frequency reminders, since that tends to de-incentivize actually using your personal calendar, which kind of defeats the purpose.<p>On top of that, Telegram 'Saved Messages' with the reminder feature is really useful. The native app makes it very fast to navigate. Obviously not as fast as searching local plain text files, but definitely faster than WhatsApp.</p>

<p>I’m a bit confused because I don’t clearly understand the value this tool adds. Could you help me understand it?<p>From what I can see, if the content I want to enrich is static, the web fetch tool seems sufficient. Is this tool capable of extracting information from dynamic websites or sites behind login walls, or is it essentially the same as a web fetch tool that only works with static pages?</p>

<p>which Gemini free are you talking about?

<p>I find the premise reasonable, though I do have an observation.<p>The current AI hype may have placed us in a filter bubble or echo chamber, shaping our conclusions. These highly specialized algorithms can nudge or reward us for thinking in specific ways.<p>Regarding programming languages, there is immense value in understanding internal primitives.<p>As example, consider concurrency primitives. Different languages provide different levels of abstraction: high-level library support in Python, the event loop structure in JavaScript, compiler-level implementations in Rust and C++, runtime-intrinsic mechanisms in Go and Java, and virtual machine intrinsics, such as Erlang.<p>By viewing languages through this lens, you recognize that each implements these primitives differently, allowing you to choose the most effective tool for the job.<p>If your goal is to assess the short-term economic value of a technology, your logic is understandable. However, learning new languages and tools remains worthwhile. When AI agents begin invoking these tools on the fly, you may not know if a specific choice is the most effective one. Without this knowledge, you will have some gaps to challenge the AI's decision.<p>In the long run, making the effort to master these concepts yields far greater value as a software engineer. It enables you to understand the rationale behind applying a precise tool to a precise task.<p>There are valid arguments supporting various perspectives on this. However, while any approach can be useful, this discussion highlights the need for wisdom: the awareness of one's own biases. As I noted earlier, filter bubbles can distort judgment. Continuously questioning your conclusions helps ensure you move toward the best outcomes. I hope you find this recommendation useful.</p>
