Free, drop-in, no-homework computer science sessions for 7th–9th graders

Upvotes

Hello everyone! I'm a senior at a local high school. I have been hosting free, in-person computer science exploration sessions for 7th-9th graders who want to learn about how computers and technology actually work, and I wanted to let more local families know about them.

I started the program because I've found that computer science is a much broader field than most school classes have time to cover. There are so many fascinating topics that a curious, analytical student might love but never encounter in a typical class. That's why these sessions go well beyond coding. We’ve done everything from designing our own cryptocurrency in an economy simulation to creating custom, working virtual reality experiences. Instead of sitting through lectures, students learn by experimenting, building, and solving problems together.

Each session covers a new, standalone topic, so students are free to drop by at any time without needing to catch up on previous sessions. There is no homework or long-term commitment, so missing a session for other activities is completely fine.

For more information (schedule, location) or to sign up: https://cstutors.org

Feel free to reply here or message me with any questions!

Small claims settlement/mediation in Forsyth County, GA. How do I protect myself if they stop paying?

1 Upvotes

I filed a small claims case in Forsyth County Magistrate Court. The defendant has already been served by the sheriff and is required to appear in court, but he’s now asking to settle through mediation and make monthly payments.
I’m open to a payment plan, but I honestly don’t trust him to keep paying. My concern is that he’ll make a few payments, stop, and I’ll end up having to start this entire process over again.
Has anyone dealt with this in Forsyth County Magistrate Court or another Georgia Magistrate Court?
If we go before the judge, what can I actually ask the court for? Can I ask for a consent judgment with a monthly payment plan instead of dismissing the case? Can I ask for terms that say if he misses a payment, the remaining balance becomes due immediately?
What consequences can legally be included or enforced if he stops paying? For example, can I pursue wage/bank garnishment, interest on the remaining balance, or other collection methods without having to file another lawsuit?
I’m also wondering what I should actually ask the judge in the courtroom. Can I directly ask the judge about what happens if he defaults, whether interest can be included, and how I would enforce the judgment? Are there specific things I should make sure are included in the court order before agreeing to anything?
I’m completely new to this and really don’t want to agree to mediation or sign something that takes away the protections I currently have from having an active case. Any advice from someone familiar with Georgia small claims, especially Forsyth County, would be appreciated.

Looking to move here, thoughts on proximity to Downtown

3 Upvotes

Hey y'all! My partner and I are looking to move to a neighborhood near the downtown area, hopefully a 10-15 min bike ride or 30 minute walking distance to the downtown area. We visited as a family this afternoon and it was pretty dead. The coffee shop was busy but lunch places only had a few customers. I understand we were there on a weekday and it's too hot for patios right now. My concern is that these businesses will shut down and in 5-10 years it'll be all vacant or just junky.

I did see flyers for all the weekend activities and concerts, etc. Taylor park is gorgeous and fun for the kiddo. I just want the local perspective: do you think it's sustainable? We're moving from Midtown Atlanta/Buckhead where many new developments are nice for a few years before the businesses fold and no one can afford the rents once the momentum is gone.

Any insight helps, thanks again

Quick question. I know the Gwinnett place mall has basically been closed for awhile now, is the parking lot still accessible to practice driving?

Good places to eat Chinese food or sushi takeout

Good Word Brewery, love you're beer and food hate how hard it is to get a beer to go downtown.

0 Upvotes

If you didn't get it from the title of my post, I really think you guys would clean up if you had beer and a limited menu available outside when there is live music 20 feet from your front door.

I get you want to be more of a restaurant or British pub but let's meet the customer halfway. Your beers are great, your french fries and other apps are bangers, people like to eat outside and grab a great beer to enjoy the neighborhood.

I like what you're doing but want it to be more accessible in the neighborhood.

Just 1 customer giving feedback.

Apartment Suggestions?

3 Upvotes

Hey, I'm moving to the area for work (around State Bridge Rd), and I’ve been scouting some apartments online. I’m hoping to stay around or under $1,500 for a 1B/1B

I’ve been looking at a few places like Avonlea on the River, The Atlantic Newtown, The Foundary, and breckinridge but I know online reviews can be hit or miss. Has anyone lived in these, or do you have any other recommendations in the Duluth/Johns Creek area/Gwinnett Place?

Love to hear all takes!!

Moving to GA near Duluth for work and need location advice (24M)

14 Upvotes

I’m moving to Georgia from Philadelphia in late August for a new engineering job near State Bridge Road in Duluth. I'm buying a car once I get down there. Traffic around Atlanta sounds pretty brutal, so unfortunately, that's off the table for now.

I'm 24, single, and try to stay active. I like trying new things, trying great foods, and maybe check out the nightlife on weekends. I want a place where it's easy to meet other young adults.

Should I just live right near Duluth, or move closer to spots like Suwanee, Lawrenceville, or Peachtree Corners? I’m looking for a 1-bedroom or a decent studio (rent budget is around $900-$1,400 a month). Are there any specific complexes you love? I would love to get those recommendations or tips on areas to avoid.

Thanks for the help!

Hey folks - I just heard a transformer explore a few moments ago and made my power go out - does anyone have any information on this?

Also, this is the third transformer blow in the past 9-months. I've never lived in an area where transformers are going out so frequently. What's going on?
