While I generally agree, everyone learns in their own way. Some folks love taking existing code / script apart and see what makes it, ehm, tick. I am definitely guilty of trying to help with ready-to-go solutions. I’d like to think the target audience is inquisitive enough and will dig deeper into the problem themselves later on.
You also get the chance to teach someone a correct approach, so they do not need to make the mistakes you had made before learning it yourself.
The ‘google it’ or ‘search the forums’ type of answer can be frustrating. Oftentimes the real issue is not knowing the keyword. Every time I try to explore a whole new topic myself, I stumble and I’ve been googling things for years!
Or perhaps you’re right. Folks get spoiled by the visual nature of blueprints and expect things prewired from A-Z.
I mean, the solution here is a glorified triangle, not much to talk about really. …unless someone (pezzott1) walks 500 miles out of their way to help a stranger on the internet.
