Meeting: The Second

IT HAS BEGUN!

Tonight we took our first steps into the code: HTML and CSS and Javascript: the beginnings of empire. Because of c9.io we were all able to code together - working on the same document at the same time - so we didn't have to huddle around a single machine while only one person typed. It was great.

Topics of discussion included:
  • Lisp: the AI mother tongue
  • The basics of web hosting
  • HTML (the nouns)
  • CSS (the modifiers)
  • Javascript (the verbs)
  • Bitcoin
  • What programming is actually like (lots of documentation tabs)
  • Everyone's programming goals for the next year:
    • Start a business and publish a few apps
    • Build a website
    • Learn more about low-level languages (C, Assembly, etc...)
    • Build a little RasberryPi robot
    • Fix a family-member's eCommerce site
Onward to the edge!
