Re:Launch HN: Scrimba (YC S20) – Interactive video for learning to code
on Friday September 25, 2020 @12:06AM (#24586490)
Is it really true that "... over 70% of people who are trying to learn to code today use videos."?
Is this as the primary method of learning, or are videos just a component of the modern-day learning experience?

Is this what is considered a product page these days? One vaguely non-specific sentence and 2 embedded videos.
They have all the information and images they need available on the play store, so why are they not presenting it on their own site?
(grumble, grumble)

Am I just out of touch with what the kids today are doing, or is this formatting really as bonkers as it seems?
int main
( int argc
, char *argv[]
) {
// ...
LColor backgroundColor =
LColor
( generateLightColorPart(207, 1)
, generateLightColorPart(154, 1)
, generateLightColorPart(108, 1)
, 1
);
// ...
}
I can (sort of) see that this makes it easy to comment out parameters - except for the first one...

Anyone who can understand what OpenCV actually is from their front page is doing better than me.

"KiTTY is a fork from version 0.67 of PuTTY, the best telnet / SSH client in the world."
Wow - if PuTTY is "the best client in the world" then this must be, by definition, an inferior product.
Re:Studies about human perception

I gave up after the 2nd paragraph:
Clearly I have learned everything there is to know about how humans perceive data graphics in preparation for this talk. Literally everything. But I couldn’t possibly fit it all into 30 minutes. So for your sake, let’s just refer to this talk as “39 studies on human perception in 30 minutes.”
