    Seems like one of those articles where an editor ignored the content then chose an annoying clickbait title.

    The author talks about problem solving and curiosity. He says that adults can easily learn coding syntax. While his child is young, he wants to let the kid be curious and learn how to solve problems.

    It contains a sweet story about he and his wife teaching his kid how to bake cookies.
