So, sometimes software gets these things called "iterations" and "versions" where the authors of the software add features and updates. So while this link isn't the KidPix of the 90s, it certainly has the same gameplay to the point where Im personally transported back to playing this on my Dad's Mactinosh 30ish years ago.
Perhaps you can try downloading it and seeing for yourself?

I've been doing web dev for as long as Django has been a "thing" (2009). I love build APIs and leading people, I'm also not afraid to get into legacy apps to make them better. I can legally work in the USA or Canada with no issue. Seeking a full time or contract-to-hire position. Hope you're having a lovely Monday!
> Another alternative I’m considering is learning HVAC repair as a fallback career.
Why not both? My neighbor configures HVAC for datacenters as a living. From what I've understood in our chats, there's a lot of expert system processing going on. It's only going to grow as ML/AI does. When there's gold rush, don't invest in gold, invest in pickaxes.
my father in law was an "HVAC guy" and got to know some commercial real estate owners through networking. I think he did $250k/year working when he wanted. Granted, it was very hard physical work.
If you haven't had the pleasure: https://www.incredibox.com/demo/ may be the band/demo/dynamic music you are pursuing? But much agreed, I think we're at the forefront of exciting new mediums in the audio space.
Invitae | Senior / Principal Engineer: Django / Python, or anything biotech | REMOTE / Optional travel to SF / CO (USA) labs | https://www.invitae.com/en/careers/
[ Funny enough, I was hired via one of these kind of HN posts a couple years ago and am honored to return the favor :) ]
Invitae ($NVTA) is a genetics company in the biotech space with a focus on medical diagnostics & genetic counseling.
As a software dev, this means that a lot of our work is building bespoke software for in-house scientist clients. There is a strong focus on patients & employees, and we have a lot of flexibility in accommodating software engineers as a result.
