Ask HN: Learning a foreign language, for programmers?
I'm curious if anyone here knows of a resource for learning foreign language that's suited for programmers?
I figure we're all pretty used to learning languages (programming) - is there such a thing as a foreign language course modeled after coding courses?
If not - what are your favorite resources for learning foreign languages?
