  • The trick is to name everything in a way so you don’t have to remember stuff. Like instead of class “Cronjob” method “process”, name it “ImageCacheEraser” and “purgeByContentID”. Same goes for variables. No need for short names. Nowadays, you can even write with short names at first, so typing is faster, then just use your IDE to rename them to full size afterwards.




  • You could get a cheap Android phone or tablet and install MacroDroid or Automate. They allow making simple programs from building blocks. Like “If notification is ckicked display message”. … but there’s the risk this somehow leads to wanting to use the internet/wifi.

    Unfortunately Lego Mindstorms have been discontinued AFAIK. It were components to build a robot that could be programmed from a PC. That would have been cool. I think one of the programming softwares was also for Mac. Maybe you can get it second hand?
