It&#x27;s a great site, of course, but lists don&#x27;t make good submissions to HN. The comments will be about the lowest common denominator of the items on the list, and this is usually pretty generic.<p>It would be better to pick one of the most interesting items on the list and submit that instead.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;hn.algolia.com&#x2F;?dateRange=all&amp;page=0&amp;prefix=true&amp;sort=byDate&amp;type=comment&amp;query=denominator%20lists%20by:dang" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;hn.algolia.com&#x2F;?dateRange=all&amp;page=0&amp;prefix=true&amp;sor...</a>

If a language fits into a familiar paradigm, the absolute fastest way to learn, I&#x27;ve found, is to whip open the LXY page and docs, and translate a known quantity such as Advent of Code or a personal toy project.

A programmer can use this and get right up to speed, I would call this a huge cheat sheet

As a syntax cheat sheet this has always been a great site.<p>Just don&#x27;t look at it as &quot;learn c++ in 24 hs&quot;.

&quot;Learn&quot; is meaningless with cheatsheets like this. There&#x27;s much more to a language than its syntax, and I&#x27;m afraid that&#x27;s the part one can&#x27;t have a cheatsheet for.<p>For this reason, I never tried LXiYM for Common Lisp&#x2F;Racket&#x2F;Clojure because actually lisping in those languages involves a new way of thinking, not knowing a new notation.

This site is a Rosetta Stone of programming languages.

One of the best resources online IMHO. I always wondered if the original intent was to have a number of different “Y”, ie separate tutorials to choose from: learn c in 10 minutes and learn c in 30, etc.

I see Jira is not listed among the tools you can learn in Y minutes. I assume because it&#x27;s not possible to learn Jira in minutes, even an arbitrarily large number of them...
