    In my case, I wasn't any good at math untill I was about 10 or 11,

  12. I have a 7 yo and a 9 yo, both boys. on Ask Slashdot: Best Science-Fiction/Fantasy For Kids? · · Score: 0

    My biggest mistake is always feeding them with material that is not appropriate for their age yet.
    Like RC airplanes that are even difficult for me to flight.

    Bat what works best so far is:

    1./ No television available at the house
    2./ Limited, and directed/restricted access to computer, unless they are programming Lego NXT, RubyKids, or practicing vim skills. (yes, the 9yo edits in vim)

    Unless you are very little and only need a tiny storage, makes no sense to have any cloud service.
    I have half rack for $400 / month plus about $500 / month in hardware deprecation (3 years),
    So far I got in 5 1u servers virtualized with proxmox, and several terabytes of storage.
    The equivalent computing / storing power in the cloud will be several thousand u$s,
    (more than $40k / month in e.g. a rackspace equivalent)
