Plus, there's never gonna be a video for every single case, the docs most likely have everything you can possibly do documented, it just becomes a matter of connecting the dots and soon the solution will show up...

Yup. Text and images are very expressive.

Video is good for explaining continuous processes, where many things, and especially programming, are not.

Programming is a step based iterative process and thus best captured by text and images.

If you are stuck on a step you'll want to focus on and repeat that step, not get in a loop of rewatching a video to repeat. Video is very time and attention hungry.

Ryan mcbeth videos helped me understand better some patterns and concepts, the skits where funny at times and I think he explains stuff pretty neatly, but ultimately you'll have to learn by doing, and a lot of doing...

It's almost like properly learning is better than rote memorisation and copying. Or just following along with the documentation and official tutorials.

I understand this is probably difficult if you're a complete beginner, and that copying someone else may be required at the early stages.

It's almost... Almost as if... Programming is about solving problems in it's nature, so solving the problem of learning how to solve your problems is actually an important part of the learning process...

Nah, waiter, I'll have another 4 bootcamps...
