NerdMoms NerdMoms helps businesses simplify digital chaos & parents navigate life with children online. All manner of nerdiness is encouraged here.

We love nerdy activities, nerdy news, nerdy work, and especially nerdy kids. NerdMoms is part nerd club and part consulting firm, spreading nerdiness around like β⁻. As you may have surmised, I'm a mom. I am deeply concerned about my not-so-little digital natives entry into the digital world. At NerdMoms not only do we support business but consulting with parents on managing the debut of their dig

ital natives into the virtual world is near and dear to our hearts. We recognize the importance of learning to code and being familiar with technology, both for individual career development and for advancing computational thought. This applies to kids AND adults. We tutor both in a variety of technologies to ensure everyone understands:
-The power of the technology they wield;
-How to explore the potential of coding;
-The permanence of posts online, and online reputation management;
-Digital empathy versus empathy;
-How to recognize cyber-bullying or cyber-threats, as well as "bad actors" that might target for grooming;
-Digital security and digital risk, for businesses, households, adults and children;
-How to recognize the role their virtual life can play in their LIFE without taking over. Oh and tons more...

We've had lots of questions and found many answers. For the problems with no answer we come up with solutions. For the most part we learn best from trial and error...lots of error. You can add your ideas, learn from our errors, gather information you need and even get help right here.

Watch those cloned site links y'all. The interwebs' n'erdowells are using ai to generate very believable dupes.

O Christmas tree, o cosmic tree 🎄

Located about 2,500 light-years from Earth, NGC 2264 is a cluster of young stars between one and five million years old. The stars appear as blue and white lights surrounded by swirls of gas—the “pine needles” of the tree—with green representing light in the visible spectrum.

The image combines data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and optical data from astrophotographer Michael Clow’s telescope.

Tunisian (afghan) crochet transitioned to knitting and back again. Crazy sounding, I know. Hear me out.

I'll write the pattern when I work out all the details. This will be a snuggly book scarf, probably with a hood (depends on if I have enough yarn).

Here's what we have:
Tunisian crochet about arm's length (various stitches), switch back to knitting with stockinette to make a scrunchable neck portion, repeat the first panel.

I plan to finish the edges with crochet and to crochet pockets to sew on at the bottom of each end.

Here's a peek at the transition.

So this project will be comprised of Tunisian crochet, knitting, and crochet. Just leaning into the features each technique are best at.

Just a quick update on the toddler fed a kitkat by a flight attendant back in April. Same flight attendant dismissed the mother's concerns. This was a leg of travel between DC and India. So that child and mother were on planes for a LONG time, crew denied requests for help and were indifferent to the child's struggle. She went on to be admitted to the ICU at her destination with a severe "biphasic anaphylactic reaction".

What is that? "A biphasic reaction involves a second onset of symptoms after a period of apparent recovery." Up to 72 hours AFTER initial reaction.

Here's an article summarizing the event and the $5M lawsuit filed by the child's NC mom.
