The first time I had this course, the kids were between 8 and 10. The differences in cognitive behaviour were minimal. Just some of them were a little bit slower than the others, but at the end they helped each other and everyone was finished at time. I see, 4/5yrs would be much trickier.
For our next course it will be a little bit more "diverse". The oldest application is 14, and some of the former kids are coming again. So it will be the whole spectrum 8-14.
I will see in the first lessons how I can separate them or offer different materials.
This time I'll offer some intro to Python. Maybe, one or the other will then grab this path.
I admit preparation of the materials was quit time consuming... more as I thought in the beginning it would be. But for the second course, I have already a bunch of prepared stuff.
Cool... Congratulation.
This is a project for me as well, which started two months ago. Still moving the drive files and re-registering all accounts where I used @gmail.com and my domain email. It's a pain after 16years. Everyday something pops up which I didn't consider.
I'm doing it with own server (hetzner) and protonmail.
Youtube Playback Speed Control Extension works well here... and I can watch it im my comfort zone of 3.5x - 4.5x. So at least 45min get cut to 10-15min..
but tested only on one so far.
For Youtube (and most others) I usually just paste the URL to `mpv` (using youtube-dl under the hood) to take advantage of it's keyboard shortcuts for easy control over speed and position etc.
I might be playing through a video really fast, but suddenly need to repeat something so hit backspace to drop to normal speed, a press or two of left arrow to jump back (~5 secs each), then tap ] a few times to speed up again. Then if there's an interesting chart or graph shown, just f to toggle full screen, s for screenshot if you like.
Being able to navigate and control linear media with simple keyboard shortcuts feels liberating in a similar way to the first time you grok a powerful edit with just a few keystrokes in Vim or Emacs (except you're just consuming media of course).
Nicely done, I've always heard that we can listen about 4x faster than we can speak. Most podcast listeners I know do 1.5x - 2x speed, myself included.
If I would have developed an algo for very profitable trading, I wouldn't share it with anyone or maybe with close friends, but just making the freaking money...
That said, 99.99% out there claiming to have such a thing is just scam, crap, bs and/or non-sense.
But to your question: "smaller strategies" and "not be interesting enough for larger algorithmic trading firms":
There is, but why would one tell??
