Zack Shapiro offers some great advice for those interested in learning to code as a means to build something. I’m one of those people he mentions who are using Code Academy but I make it a part of my weekly routine and it’s helping.

I wrote a post almost a year ago about how code relates to the law, and I stand by it: it’s a great way of learning to think critically. Even if you don’t learn to build what you have in mind, you’ll get some useful lessons out of the experience.
