Thanks! I'm not sure how (or whether it's possible) to make any links clickable within the post text (mb using Markdown or something else?)

Show HN: Sprites – create online infographics with ease

from the show-hn dept.

(there was a "Show HN" post about Sprites a while ago but I though it would be good to re-iterate since we've added some great features recently and also because my previous post went a bit unnoticed).Sprites (https://spritesapp.com) is a simple to use web app which allows you to create animated, visual, data-driven presentations (infographics). All presentations are pure HTML5 content and are...

Re:Why knowing English is important for every software developer on Monday September 02, 2013 @04:00AM (#6313993)

When I was learning Basic in school, I wasn't really caring/realizing that all of the keywords can actually be translated to Russian, I was just learning them by heart like proper nouns. On the other hand, seeing languages with syntax in Russian (like the scripting language in 1C CRM) always makes me smile ("so ugly, unusual and funny").

Sir, your English is superior comparing to mine!

Re:Why knowing English is important for every software developer on Monday September 02, 2013 @03:20AM (#6313865)

Fixed, thanks (btw, liked the way you put it).

Re:Why knowing English is important for every software developer on Monday September 02, 2013 @03:06AM (#6313822)

If there's a language rule that says you can't combine these two this way, I'd be more than happy to learn about it. English is not my mother language so I apologize for any grammar/spelling mistakes in advance ;-)
