Haha! That's awesome. I wish my parents had been as lenient as yours. They allowed it to a certain point, but when I worked my way up to more dangerous/valuable appliances, they were like "Okay, no!" and I'd skamper off and play Pokemon.

I actually still do it at 21. Only now it's my own stuff. I'm not at your skill level, but I certainly get a lot of enjoyment out of jurry rigging electrtonics into new things.

I definitely suggest Python. r/learnpython is a great resource, as is Code Academy.

It isn't the best language for games, but there are packages like pygame for simple game development.

That's adorable. And the hosting thing is hilarious.

When I was younger, I caused all kind of shenanigans with electronics. Dissasemling appiances, splicing wires, etc. It drove my parents nuts.

Did you fool around with electronics when you were a kid? If so, what did you do, and how did your parents react to it?
