Hacker News has collected a lot of blog posts from the IT industry. Some post-reading articles feel overwhelmed, some are humorous, and some completely subvert your values.

The IT industry also has a perceptual culture and amazing art.

Kids
Use coding skills to hack online games

Kids as young as 11 are using coding skills to hack accounts on social media and gaming sites, according to one report. antivirus firm AVG says children are
Writing malware to steal data and virtual currency from friends.

However, the hacks are still in their infancy, as researchers found errors that trace back to the original source. One author encoded his exact email
Address, password and additional information, revealing an 11-year-old boy in Canada. most programming extends ages researchers found in the study were elementary, such as C # and Visual Basic. check out the video, above, for more.

As today's connected generations tinker with computers and smartphones at earlier ages, their familiarity with coding starts young. worldwide initiatives are developing to teach kids to program, javascoderdojo and codeemy.
More children are learning to create their own apps, learning html and JavaScript like a second language.

Kids need to be taught to code responsibly and educational guidelines shoshould be implemented, says Yuval Ben-Itzhak, Chief Technology
Officer at avg.

"You teach your children that you can't take a toy without paying-so I think this type of a message needs to get to the kids when they're writing software too, "Ben-Itzhak tellsBBC.

What do you think of teaching children to code? How can teachers and parents monitor their kids? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Small hackers intrude into online games

According to an article, a group of 11-year-old children intrude into some social media and online game websites using programming technology. The antivirus company AVG said that children are writing malware to steal data and virtual currency from their friends.

Even so, these small hackers are only in the early stages of their technology, and the researchers trace the source of the virus through the errors they put down. A precise email address, password, and other information are exposed to an eleven-year-old boy in Canada. Researchers found that most of the programming languages used by these small hackers are simple basics, such as C # and Visual Basic.

Today, children are getting younger and younger using computers and smartphones, which allows them to get very early access to programming. More and more people around the world are teaching their children programming, such as some programming websites: coderdojo and codecademy. More and more children are creating their own applications, and HTML and JavaScript seem to have become their second language.

CTO (CTO) of AVG (anti-virus company) said we need to educate our children to be more responsible for programming.

"You will tell your children that they cannot take toys from the store. Similarly, I think you should remind them when they write software ." Ben-Itzhak told the BBC.

How will you teach your children to program? How should the teachers and parents discipline their children? Please tell me your thoughts in the reply.
