<p>Won't take much of your time, as I often post here:<p>So lately I have been doing a couple of things:<p>- Programming related: GenAI/LLMs, Data Pipelines, automation, scraping, enterprise business process automation in Python, n8n, PHP, and a few other tech.<p>- Implementing browser and server-side tracking to optimize Meta Ad spend by sending visitors' behavior data to Meta and other platforms to let their AI systems learn more about the website and Ad campaign.<p>I'm looking for individuals/orgs who discuss their problems; I listen and provide solutions; that's what I love to do and am good at; dealing with both the tech and biz side. Can you offer such a combo? Do buzz me. I'm sure you won't regret it.

<p>Dear HN,<p>My son, 16, finished his O-level exams. He appeared in Maths, Physics, Chemistry, CS, and English papers.<p>He's a sharp and curious kid , and he is pretty good at exploring new things. He's a gamer, and a few days ago , he was making a "head tracker. " Upon insisting, he wrote about his experience in a Medium article. But he's not consistent and wastes time on social media doomscrolling. On the other hand, his knowledge about current affairs, policies, and science is pretty good. I had no idea about "Project Blue Beam," and he casually discussed it over dinner one day.<p>Coming to the point, being a major in CS/CE myself, I don't want him to pursue a career in CS, as I don't think it is as challenging as it used to be in the pre-AI era. On the other hand, he seems interested in STEM; he participated in a robotics contest and created a few personal circuits, but in general, he's not very good at things, mainly because he gets bored or wants to play most of the time and spends that time on social media. He does read books, but is not very fond of them. I recently forced him to read Naval's Almanack, and he has been reading one or two pages a day. What advice would you give to a young kid that will help him counter challenges in life and career? And what should I fix or do as a parent?<p>We are from Pakistan.</p>
