Hmmm - advice for beginners that does not mention Python or Ruby but rather headlines with C++ (admittedly caveated)? Sorry, cannot endorse.

It was written in 2008, so it's dated. But in point of fact, it does mention Python as an interpreted language.

Of far more concern than the datedness of it are the grammatical errors; this is a 5 year old blog post, so you'd think he'd have either noticed by now or a reader would have pointed them out (please, programmers— is it really so hard to learn the "its-it's" rule?). Now that's something that could have been done better.
