Chess is probably a good analogue to how the juniors will learn. You will have to learn for the sake of it even though the space is solved.


That's a pretty good take. I was actually looking for a good analogy recently

I think if I was just starting out learning to program, I would find something fun to build and pick a very correct, typed, and compiled language like Haskell or Purescript or Elm, and have the agent explaining what it's doing and why and go very slow.
