Any insights for DACA? Besides the continual renewal cycles, are there any new opportunities or options? Many thanks for your time.

Louis Rossmann is the man
"This is a course about the practice of programming, an attempt to expose students to the development of real programs. Programming is more than just writing code. Programmers must also assess tradeoffs, choose among design alternatives, debug and test, improve performance, and maintain software written by themselves and others. At the same time, they must be concerned with compatibility, robustness, and reliability, while meeting specifications. Students will have the opportunity to develop these skills by working on their own code and in group projects."

I recommend reading the first chapter of Bjarne Stroustrup's book, "Programming Principles and Practice Using C++." It's a quick read but it's got the wisdom that your question seeks.
Josh Hug's course would be a good place to start. Lectures -- Companion textbook -- Practice problems -- Projects -- all in one place covering everything from the basic to the complex.
"If that's not enough, it's a good exercise to scrape them." I like this idea.
I appreciate you for taking the time to reply and point me in a direction. Thank you.
Hi, thanks for asking.
CS major, just trying to keep tabs on Startups--probably not going to get FAANG, so I'd like to know the players in the Startup scene.
I want the news on what companies are doing; what startups are getting fundings. Plus that database of startups.
That sort of thing.
That little bit of advice helps a great deal. Many thanks!
I’m on a similar path.
I was wondering, hope this isn’t too personal to ask, when you were searching for that first internship, I am in that stage right now, what did your resume look like? What sort of projects did you include and did not include?
Besides my curious questions, I enjoyed reading about your experiences and I hope to read more on your blog.
Cheers!

It seems like after you complete the application, the green submit button, as well as the text fields in the following sequences, are buggy -- single click doesn't seem to pick up the action, double click seems to upset it, tab into the button to press Enter doesn't work. This is all via Chrome.

For a seven-year-old? MIT's Scratch: https://scratch.mit.edu/
Once they are comfortable with scratch you can get them a Raspberry Pi and develop hardware-software projects depending on their interest.
Knowing Scratch also helps to get them into game development.
Lastly, after getting Scratch you can get the kid a Lego Mindstorms kit and build robots, musical intruments, etc.
If you're a Java developer and learning pointers I recommend using the Java Visualizer.
https://cscircles.cemc.uwaterloo.ca/java_visualize/
Copy and paste the class you're working on. Include a main() to act as a test driver and then let the Java Visualizer step through your code showing you exactly what is going on.

Many thanks for taking the time to write that response.
I just took a look at it and I think for self teaching this might be a great alternative to Rosen’s DMwA. Mainly because this book offers interactive Questions and Answers at the end of each section. Pair the book with an MIT OCW math for computer science or something similar and you should be more than good. Best of luck!

Nice find! Thanks for sharing
Also, I attended Strange Loop conference last September and there was a keynote speaker who discussed effective ways of teaching programming to kids. The talk is on YouTube and I gotta say, it's very insightful.

I'm not a parent.
If I had an iPad/MacBook around, I'd sit with him and work through the Playgrounds-app Apple has for helping kids learn to code. Within the app, there's a bunch of games. You can start with Learn to Code 1 which starts off with lessons on commands, then continues to functions, for loops, conditionals, logical operators, while loops, and finally algorithms.
A couple of summers ago, a bunch of my friends developed a teaching curriculum for a summer camp. We used Lego Mindstorm to teach kids how to program code.
We also had a class where we introduced the kids to a Raspberry Pi, then installed a program called SonicPi which was then used to teach programming by playing a synth with code.
We also used Google's educational material to teach basic MachineLearning that used a computer's webcam and kids taught the machine to run a function when it recognized a facial expression or something like that.
Surprisingly, one of the cool ideas that did work was teaching the kids basic Blender, then 3D printing their models. We also had a super basic game development class that used Scratch to make games.
MIT's Scratch is very versatile, it shows up alot when you look for guides to get kids into coding.
You know, you can also just play board games with him. I don't know what it is but folks who grow up to be good at coding always seem to have anecdotes about playing games with their dad. I guess DnD helps kids develop their cognitive skills, like thinking logically and abstracting large concepts, both of which helps lay the foundation for getting your kid to be a good problem solver.
All in all, as long as the two of you are able to enjoy the time together and repeat the sessions regularly long term, it will work wonders for him. Sons need their fathers.
You got this,
