This editor is really impressive. I work at Google on Grasshopper's block-based mobile coding editor, and we've been exploring ways to help users transition from block-based coding to "real" coding. This looks like it do

I certainly hope you aren't getting delivery from a pizza place 50m from your door. Just order takeout, and it'll take 3-5 minutes instead of 1 if it's really that close.

It's always astonishing to me that this world is still so unexplored that we can discover an entire population of polar bears in 2022. They're literally one of the biggest animals, how did we miss them?

Signing has tons of advantages over typing, since you can convey emotion/tone with your hands and facial expressions. I'd also imagine it has a higher WPM, although WPM might be a bad measure since some small words like "a&qu
