Well at least you have 1000s of tutorials. Even if the way they are doing it is bad or misguided it get's you on the path.

- curiousGambler 8y agoI disagree... 1000s of tutorials explaining how to do things incorrectly just leads to thousands of crappy productions deployments. I’d rather say, “no tutorial? Ok, to the docs like the old days,” than be misled by a shitty tutorial.
- wruza 8y agoAnother problem is that thousands of turorials get few to none updates. It’s not unusual to google for whatever.js quirk and find yourself in a tutorial that uses method that was deprecated 2-3 versions ago. Of course part of this problem is in whatever.js itself, that bumps versions like hell, but you end up with tons of crap that will be never relevant anymore, but still hit the top because its author still writes popular articles. Idk about HN-ers, but I find myself in this situation at least few times a week since the beginning of my webdev.
