Christmas Video
The Year 2018 has almost ended. Christmas is a time, we celebrate the birthday of our SAVIOR!
Christmas gifts
During the snow, state of emergency was declared so school was closed. I talked with my friends; we talked more about Christmas gifts and what we all wanted. Everyone wants something the digital World is offering from phones, video games, toys some wanted game subscription. We talked about all the cool features our gifts could have.
I shared our experience when we visited Limited Run a gaming company I told them the many lines of code behind the games we play. Peter asked really? coding? Are you sure? We talked about Lua, C++, and Python. It was an eye-opener. We kids need to know that all the smart things around us became smart because of programming. The games, the toys, the devices that talk to us are all doing so because of programming. Some have lines of code, some have artificial intelligence.
Giving a gift may be a time to share a word about TECH with a kid to get us thinking, to place coding/programming in front of a kid, it may be a time to spark curiosity.Â

Snow
Winter is upon us which brings snow, snowflakes, snow angles, and best of all, it’s Christmas Time! Here in Raleigh, NC we had a winter snow storm come through the triangle. We got about 5½ inches of snow from Sunday morning to afternoon. Because of technology, meteorologists were able to track the snow storm and give us a fairly accurate prediction of how much snow we could expect to get. I even have friends that lost power. Without coding and the technology we have today, we would never be able to protect ourselves and make well-planned actions.
Strength in Numbers
I had a reflection two days ago right after basketball. We did not win, but it was very close. The difference was one point. The high post was guarding his man when he drives to the basket and got the shot off and made it. It was one point. Our ball and we go to shoot for 2 seconds left and….. it didn’t go in. So we lost 21-22. Our coach told us after the game to work on our drives and press breaks. He said that we need to call 41, which is for an offensive play, and get the ball near the rim. So we had our next game and listened to what our coach said and we did better. We won 31-28. He said that if we get down the court fast enough, we can break a press. We were all excited, we won. I thought about how our high post and low post played and our point guard, wing, and center did. There is strength in numbers. Everyone as unique as we are have something to bring to the table. We all have one goal. To do better so that we can win the game.
What makes technology so cool is the many unseen hands who work together to identify the challenge or solve the challenge in order to bring about a change to help others. I love tech. It comes with collaboration, communication, and creativity. This is why the tech industry is the fastest growing industry in the world. So whatever is your strength, bring it to tech. Let’s take it to the next level.

Our Responsibility
I did an evaluation today on my way to school, I constantly have a to-do list, as I recount all the responsibilities I had to do 2years ago, and today it is more, I realized it was increasing and never decreasing. I think about what it will be in two years time, it will increase.
Our TECH community is the fastest growing industry in the World, there are several ways we can give back, in the next few days let us reach out and give back as a responsibility. Let us look around and bring more people to TECH including kids, we all are responsible for filling all the Job openings available.
We can do it.
Discipline
I woke you on a beautiful Saturday and I looked around me, I have my notepad beside my bed where I write down ideas of either identifying a challenge or a solution that comes to my head.
One of the benefits of identifying a challenge and building a solution using code is not only the cool solution that is built but the discipline it takes to build the solution. When you identify a challenge, it sticks to your head and occupies your mind, you find yourself constantly processing all the solutions being built. I find myself asking questions and sometimes writing my codes on paper. Yes, you heard me, I sometimes write my code on paper, behind my notebooks at school. You can’t run your code on paper, I tell myself after I have done it, Oh yes, I find myself doing it. All I see is the codes in front of me. Programming/coding comes with a lot of discipline which helps us to stay focused.
Here at Bugzero.codes one of our missions is to combat online distraction and mischief while enhancing a high sense of discipline. Discipline helps to increases our productivity, it keeps us on task and really and truly who doesn’t want that? There are so many distractions in the digital World, too many things in your face all wanting your attention, that is one of the benefits of being able to code.
We believe Coding is for everyone including kids.
