Why is /. even discussing this bullshit?

This is a terrible decision. Inbox on the desktop and mobile are terrific products. I don't see ANYTHING wrong with them. I wonder what sort of shitty data-driven decision making was behind this.

Seymour Papert is a true hero for the fields of computer science and education. To hear him at a lecture was a true intelectual delight. We old-school programmers owe him a lot; I learned to program using Logo and now my son is learning to program using Scratch which is like a third-generation descendant of Logo. His books should be required reading for teachers of all levels and sorts.

This is still happening today.
