The Real Story of the Homeless Coder
A computer programmer named Patrick McConlogue offered a homeless guy a choice between $100 or a laptop and lessons on coding. Leo chose the latter, and is even working on his own app.

Re: The Real Story of the Homeless Coder
Reminds me of this saying "If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. But if you give him a fishing rod, you feed him for a lifetime"  Or, as my step dad would say "Give a man a fish, and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish, and he'll sit in a boat and drink beer all day."    |
