Thank you heyitsguay, I'll definitely try to edit the article to factor that in. I'm sorry having not been more specific before. But how can I still target those that are fortunate to have libraries they can take advantage but just don't realize it? Not everyone is as fortunate, but I'm a poor immigrant from Colombia and spent the majority of my childhood in public libraries while my parents worked and that's how I started my background so it can be done, but like you said, not every facing poverty will have the same circumstances.
Interesting, I bet that's an experience that most people on HN haven't had (I certainly haven't!). Since lots of the comments (including mine) have focused on how hard it is to take advantage of software engineering tools online without a CS/software background, and how hard it is to develop that background in precarious circumstances, it could be really interesting to write more about how you came to learn these things yourself.
