I always have the same problem with novice developers too --
"Hi"
?
"I have an error"
What error?
"It won't compile"
Whats the error message?
"Function lib.X not found"
Did you import the library?
"No"
Import it
"It worked"
Most everyone seems to be trained to ignore error messages, regardless of background. Expecting them to go the next step and google the error is a lost cause, regardless of background. Even 5yr devs sometimes need to be taught this... I'm still not clear why, but it feels like people are being trained to use computers this way -- i just can't figure out when, why and who's doing this mis-training
- snegu 6y agoThis is likely because many error messages are not helpful. Blame all the developers who just put an error code in their error messages and called it a day.
