It's strange seeing valuable articles being flagged as dead in the new section but somehow this gets promoted to the front page because of the Django framework shares the same first name as this Jazz musician.
- ano-ther 2y agoOr maybe because this is actually the fascinating story about someone who -- in true hacker spirit -- creates a completely new genre despite having only two fingers available for fretwork after he got burned badly. Which was all news to me. So now I am going to spend the rest of the day finding some of Django Reinhardt's music.
