One of the two greatest sources of programming knowledge. Every programmer has learnt most of what they know from stackoverflow questions and tutorials from Indian guys on YouTube.

Back in the last millennium, before the days of the internet, we had to learn to program from these things called books. There was no Stack Overflow or ChatGPT to ask questions. If you were lucky, there was "man" pages. I'll see myself out to the nursing home now.

I still prefer trial and error and some documentation if it exists.

I also learned a lot in college.

It did use to be books.
