[Deleted member 591971]

1. you do not learn
2. its boring
3. it may be dificult to understand
4. it may overwhelm beginners

just ask google what you are trying to do.

None of these are really good points
1. you do not learn - That's subjective, not everyone learns the same way. Maybe you didn't learn anything but someone else did. Experience can also play into someone's ability to learn from these guides.

2. its boring - That's your opinion and again, subjective.

3. it may be dificult to understand - I am starting to think this might be a you issue

4. it may overwhelm beginners - that goes without saying when it comes to learning a new skill. People are rarely just good at something off the bat and don't always have the experience to translate over into new skills. A skill being overwhelming doesn't mean it can't be broken down and made less difficult over time. Everyone started out as a beginner before getting to where they are now.

Asking google is a pretty terrible means of learning. We get countless threads from people who struggled due to issues caused by randomly searching on Google. People who have mixed and matched guides and resulting a mess that members of the Temp need to untangle. People who found outdated guides and messed something up as a result. Google is a pretty terrible means of getting accurate information.

Please do NOT attack OP. If you think his point is false then refute his point with arguments.

1. you do not learn

How do you learn anything, without some kind of guide?

Of course you can criticize specific guides.

The first point is literally a gatekeep attack on users, stating that learning cannot be done in any way through a setup guide.
The others are subjective and any point we would make would be considered a """personal attack"""

Sorry minimod.

just ask google what you are trying to do.

That works well for your PALib projects, right?

Going to be really fucked up when some does ask Google what to do and then it gives them a DS development guide.
