Being a developer that works with Rails daily, the first thing that jumped out at me was the code on the screen in the landing page image.
Rails hasn't used named_scope in a long time :)
I also found this bit to be just wrong
"I'm not even joking when I say this, but I think some of the resources out there make it intentionally hard for non-technical people to start learning. Maybe they want to keep this stuff a secret."
I don't believe for a second this exists. It's actually kind of offensive.
- Jimmy 13y agoI agree. The number of resources available on the internet for beginning programmers is astounding. You can find tutorials and documentation for any language that you might want to learn. Professional-quality tools are available for free. There are numerous websites where professional programmers will provide comprehensive answers to your questions within a few hours, sometimes within minutes. The source code of major software packages, like the Linux kernel or the Firefox browser, is available free of charge to anyone who wants to study or modify it. Someone who wants to learn to program is limited only by their intelligence and motivation.
