Interesting! If I have a master degree in Finance and want to be a developer, should I just do the bootcamp? If the formal education is for math principles and other science fundamentals... Thanks.
It's not recommended for parents to let youtube to babysit their children. But most parents in the States let their kids watch animations or kid videos on Youtude Kids, so they can prepare a quick meal, take a shower, or just eat dinner quietly...If you have a kid and work full-time, then you will understand why a lot parents still do it even they know that it's not good.
The downside of Youtube - Youtube will automatically push similar contents even on Youtude Kids. For example, a kid watched a "Baby Shark" video, then Youtube will push a lot videos tagged with similar contents, including weird parodies with inappropriate content for kids.
That's fair.
Since I have asked friends to upvote, so I have nothing to argue about the penalty. The rule is the rule.
Questions: I only have 2 karma, will HN prioritize posts posted by people with more karmas - with the assumption that the posts have similar "interesting" level of content? If I want to resubmit, will I still get penalty for my github link?
Hi. Thanks for letting me know about this. Indeed, I told my developer friends to check out our open source project and give us an upvote if they liked it. Ok. Now I know that it is not allowed! Then please make a banner on the submit form.
A feedback for HN: if you are looking for stories, then delete show HN category. There is no story in what I want to show. It's simply the project that I wanted more developers to know. That's why I put in the "Show HN" category -> to show to HN. If you don't want people to show the projects, why did you have this category?? Very contradictory.
Also please remember that - No algorithms are perfect, neither are human's judgements!
There are a lot of free on-line materials today related to CS, or AI/ML.
You can check out "Crash Course for Machine learning" by Google - they released all the materials that they use to train googlers about machine learning.
Initial interest is very important but not enough. The best way to teach teens (not just today) would be by making something simple and interesting together with them. It can be as simple as a "tic-tac-toe". Then add on complications little by little. The language itself doesn't really matter. It's always evolving but the concept is similar through all common languages.
Here is my story: I was born in the mid 80' and was curious about computer science. Unfortunately all my computer science classes turned to be super boring at that moment...I decided to switch to economics and finance. Occasionally I used python/sql for some basic scripts at work. But I never understood "the magic" of coding... till recently I started learning coding with a bootcamp. I was so surprised that I really enjoyed it. I loved the problem-solving aspect, the strong logic and the power to create something simply by coding! Now I look back my experience at school. Most old classmates doing well at CS started exploring coding by themselves thru gaming projects. They were so passionate about doing projects, but so much the theories, while I was worn out by most computer science classes filled with blablas. I wish I had done the fun projects with my classmates instead taking boring theory classes at that moment. Coding is such a practical material - different with other STEM subjects. We should teach people first about how to code, then how to code better with all theories behind that.
