Yes. But we're talking about children too - not just adult voters. And the app collects every click, every face photo, all contacts, every keypress on external links, everything. The full social graph, shaping the trends of the younger

Writing (parts of) an operating system, networking stack, interpreter, and text editor. It dispels all the magic. Getting over the whole idea of beautiful or perfect code. Realizing that code is a medium of expression and that there is no s

Hits home here. I started reading HN as a college freshman. At the time, a lot of the titles were gibberish to me. Over the next few years I sucked in articles and comments until I had (what I thought was) a pretty good mental model of the

Interesting. I wonder if the musical practice led to the mental music. I am also a musician, but I'm not certain whether the mental music began before or after I started playing (I started playing more than ten years ago as a teen).
