If they would search for the answer to their question, they would get it right now instead of waiting for someone to come in and answer the same question yet again.
If you are starting out with something new, someone has already had the same problem you are. Your question has already been asked and answered.

- piva00 10y agoMost of the beginner's problem is: how should I phrase this question I have? Instead of searching for specific jargon they don't know about they'll come up with their own terms to try to explain their problem. This is another acquired skill, nowadays to be a good programmer you need to learn how to search for documentation and how to phrase it and to learn that you need to become a programmer and be in contact with the technical jargon. I don't know another way to overcome this except for experience, what is exactly what newbies don't have so I try not to bash them but educate in how they can find the stuff they want.
