How did you learn to code? What would you recommend to aspiring developers?


Self-taught to start, then I took an amazing CS course from Georgeann Kepchar in high school who is one of my personal heroes.

I guess I'd recommend the same path--start studying yourself, and find a great teacher at some point.


Thanks for the insight.

Who do you blame for this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Holocaust_in_Latvia ?

Why did Latvia fail to prosecute war criminals http://www.jpost.com/Jewish-World/Jewish-News/Lack-of-will-t...

?


> I am trying to imagine what leverage we have over Russia.

Russians don't want a cold war again


It never ended, at least not in the eyes of governments.


I Want to Believe


I can't believe this shit appeared on the HN. The author of the post is a jerk: Leah and the team have developed a beautiful alternative to IRC. I use Convore on daily basis.
