Nicely put. Not enough people dive to the lower levels.
- carapace 12y agoWe should start at the lower levels. It is all easy to understand if you build up from first principals: Binary, logic gates, cpus and assembly, then it splits with compilers on one branch and LISP and Smalltalk on two others and a bunch of brush and shrubs and time to retire that metaphor. Unlike climbing Everest or understanding how the human body works the challenges in learning to program are entirely man-made! (Except for recursion, of course.)
