It really depends on what you're aiming for. - pure mathematical stuff, graphs and such, you can skip programming - making algorithms/protocols/etc by simple models require to understand what a computer can do, etc so learn a

Sorting poll results would increase readability. It should be done after vote (or by clicking on some button) to avoid biasing the results.

Look at [1]. They suggest using this: <a href=" https://twitter.com/share" class="twitter-share-button" data-lang="en">Tweet</a> I guess it relies on the HTTP referer field. You

I second https and history (I already commented on dynamic layout). Offline would require some work I guess but it is still a good idea. However, I tend to dislike realtime webapp as they are always trying to sync sending HTTP/WebSocke

Don't use a static layout. I hate unnecessary scrollbars (like most users). Remove as much third party JS as possible (use direct links instead). Seven different domains is way too much. Do you use (client-side) encryption for ensuring

School is not about making you smart or giving you a job. It's about giving them the power to drive their lives. Computer education is important and should really have a more important part. And when I say computer, I'm not advo

French here (context). Legos [1] (starting with Duplo Train) and Kapla [2] were probably the most stimulating toys I played with. Also, Logiblocs [3], Meccano. Oh, and some random basic electric components (lamps, batteries, switches, etc).

It's because it is not about generation. It's a matter of social classes, if I may call it that. Most HN's folks are not going to do politics. The ones who end up in political power groups have been through different educatio
