I'm trying to introduce programming to my girlfriend, primarily because it will open much more career options for her. And I want to encourage more women to pursue a career in tech. I don't want her to lose the interest after seeing the learning curve, or become overwhelmed and think it's not meant for her. Do you know of any books for engaging beginner's interest in programming, showing them the beauty of it, giving them the highs without going into detail. Similar to the "Mathematician's lament" by paul lockhart for mathematics and Feynman's lectures for physics. Something that gives them that intial push, that gives them the "feel" of it, that motivation which lights that fire within? Do you suggest any other better way?

Parallax scrolling is one of the best ways to tell a story on a website. It has a lot of potential. However, a majority of website based on parallax scrolling fails to load on mobile devices. I think we should start making attempts at making it mobile friendly and take serious attempts at it.
