Very clever. I hope the “for babies” part doesn’t put off the young children who’ll benefit most from this board book.
My Son still has his Windows 3.11 circa December - 1993 computer. The first thing I taught him was how to DOS Command Prompt [ type “WIN”] to start up Windows, he was hooked. Oddly enough he now works for MicroSoft via a recently purchased gaming company, life sure is strange…
My son, who is actually really interested in quantum computing got his start with this book.
I’m serious. We bought it for him as a joke (he’s 14) and now he’s taken an online course, doing some simulations, and talking about it constantly. Much better than crypto.
Computer engineering is not the same as navigating an interface that Apple spend billions on ensuring would be so simple a baby could use it.
I’d be amused if flipping pages in just the right way could induce a race condition in the circuits
Anyway
