ipa711on “Google Is as Close to a Natural Monopoly as the Bell System Was in 1956″

I use duckduckgo more than Google for search. I almost always get hits with duckduckgo, that I want, that are on page 2 of Google.

ipa711on Ask HN: What would you teach adults new to programming in a 2 hour class?

I don't agree with either of your points, spoken language or programming language. I served in the military and studied CS. I graduated when I was 31 and have had a great career. I also learned Arabic while in the military. I don't think there is anything unique about my experience. The idea that adults stop learning is garbage. The brain is much more complex then that.
