Is "The Codecademy for Higher-Level Languages" HN editor embellishment? I fail to see how Programr is for higher-level languages than Codecademy & how it's like Codecademy.

Edit: This is TechCrunch editorialization. My confusion still stands.

Hi, this is Rajesh, cofounder at Programr.

You can say that Programr is Scratch for industry-in-demand languages, if that sounds better :)

Is there a link to a place on the website to read about the points system?

I submitted user-feedback about the policy links already.
