Read the book. I liked it as a whole, especially the talk about Linux and how the users can also be developers if the project is sought after enough. Def gonna check out the recommendations at the end, might open up some new doors for me. Great post.  :D

Interesting, I started with python and with c++ after that. I always remember one of my favorite professors who said that first it is important to learn logic of programing and after that use a tool (language) which we know to use and which is best for a specific job. I think that this logic is still up to date.

I went from C, C++, Java, C#, VB, to Python. Picking up new language is really easy for me. Was told that I need to learn assembly if I am serious about programming. So I am going to learn that next. Out of all the languages I enjoyed learning java and python the most. So far I only work on small little git projects because I get really scare that ppl might complain about the coding style and such. You actually persuaded me today. If I want to be a programmer I guess I will have to learn adept and accept the criticism  ;D

Just wanted to say, i just opened up EZ after afew days away and this is the first thing i read, i actually reread it all. I have to say i was in my haydays, just love whoever wrote this shit. Goodstuff, this isn't self promotion, i ws actually inspired and dumbfound with something i wrote two years back. Me thinks it needs something more, but we ain't writting books here, huh?
If you can't explain it to a 6 year old, you don't understand it yourself.
