Les écrans et nos enfants | Des outils pour les parents

Les cellulaires seront interdits dans les écoles dès la rentrée, a annoncé Québec, jeudi. Une décision saluée par la psychoéducatrice Sarah Hamel et l’orthophoniste Julie Parent, qui viennent de lancer Les écrans et nos enfants. Dans leur livre, les deux spécialistes survolent les impacts – majoritairement négatifs – des cellulaires et autres écrans chez les 0 à 18 ans. Sur un ton bienveillant et avec humour, elles offrent des outils aux familles qui souhaitent modifier leurs habitudes. Entrevue.

You thought hijacked npm packages were bad but now it's so much worse. Unless you have robust processes to vet new dependencies, you are at risk. If this is in your client side build chain, everyone else is at risk. Welcome to the AI hellscape with more crime. www.theregister.com/AMP/2025/04/...

The gap between the self-image that MAGA has of themselves as tough macho he-men and their constant pants-pissing fear of every goddamn thing in the world is bigger than the Grand Canyon

Sean Duffy: "The truth is, transit across America is dangerous. And these liberals -- liberal mayors -- they want everybody out of cars and into trains but they made the trains unsafe so nobody really wants to ride them ... even big men don't want to ride the subway at those times of night."
