  7. Letting 4 year olds mess with the code? on A Close(r) Look At OLPC Human Interface Guidelines · · Score: 1

    when i was read this i found this " While Bulletin-boards provide a layer of abstraction on top of any given activity, the View Source button allows one to look behind the activity, peeling away layers of abstraction in order to reveal the underlying codebase which makes it tick. " So i think what they mean is they are going to let them mess with the code, or explore the code and just make new programs?
