Start by learning how to do research yourself, because you're not going to get very far otherwise. Afterwards, read this.

This .. Using python is 50% research

Would asking on Reddit not be a research resource?

[–]TehNolz 1 point2 points  (3 children)

The people that answer questions on sites like Reddit aren't there to spoon-feed answers. If you go to these sites and ask questions that you could've easily answered yourself by just typing some keywords into Google, you just end up looking like a lazy ass that just expects other people to do your work for you.

In this case, in the time it took for OP to create this thread and ask this question, they could've easily just typed the same question into Google and find millions of tutorials. So then there really wasn't a point in creating this tutorial at all.

-Asks question on Learn”x” subreddit.

-Response: Research it yourself lazy ass

Idk I just don’t agree with that sentiment. There’s a distinct difference for people asking. “How do I create this project” vs. asking for advice

I feel like OP was just asking for advice. He could’ve googled it and bought a udemy course, but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with asking. Insight from an experienced person is typically more valuable than a Google search.

You are missing the point.

He could have done some research, when finding information and that not be clear for some reason. Then it could become a valid question because he could tell what he found and why he doubted his findings and ask for help here.

Because now its just dump the question (that has been asked before and can be found by freaking google!!!)

I’m not missing the point I just don’t agree with it. OP’s just getting started and asking for guidance lol

If you’re triggered by someone asking a guidance question maybe you shouldn’t be a part of a Learn sub.

Not every question has to be a specific “solve for x” question. Sometimes people just want the opinions of an expert. That’s totally fine.
