Nice ๐Ÿ˜„, A quick feedback : I clicked this link.
I thought i would be reading the article Learning How to Learn is More Important than Learning to Code , but I just saw the title and image.

I know there is link in the top to open but it took some time to figure out.

So It will be good if you can add good call to action button, so users can easily click on it to read article.
