Thanks! I really appreciate the support.


Good question. When I tried to post this initially, her name was in it. But the length of the title was too long. I figured that I would just keep the creators of programming languages/libraries/frameworks since this is a site about that.


I understand your point (and just to be pedantic, only one of them actually created a language), but this is not a site about "that", it's a site about tech and while Pamela Fox has not created a popular lang/framework (not that I know at least), she has contributed a lot in many other aspects, specially when trying to educate people around tech, one example of that is her involvement in the girldevelopit chapter in SF.


Totally agree. Wish I could edit the title.


Use short names in cases like this:

Guido, John Resig, DHH and Pamela Fox


GvR


Administration: If possible, can we please have the title manually edited to include everyone?

Thanks.


Shortening David Heinemeier Hansson to DHH should do the trick for getting another name in there.


I believe only one of the listed people are the creators of languages (Rails is a framework, jQuery is a library).


No need to be nitpicky about it, he probably meant that...


Just edited that.


Awesome. Thanks!


This is my cousin.


Don't worry about the paranoia above, the internet made us this way!

Keep on coding. Games are a good starting point.

Please don't make a habit of it. I think it is awesome that you are young and programming! I wrote my first kernel module around your age and never regretted learning programming very early. You should stick with it and you will go places.

PS: I'm sure you would have made the front page without the deception.


the downloads don't actually work!!!


not working for me...


Quite possibly just killed by the load HN puts on it when submitted at a good time. Ironic, isn't it.


What?


there is a little wheel on your mouse, right between the left and right buttons. in most browsers, if you click the link with it, it will open in a new tab


it was just a suggestion...i mentioned in the article that there were alternative ways to do them but i was just giving a suggestion
