> without the need for intervention by members of the programming guild. "Self" learning is a pipe dream. You are always being guided. Be it statically and indirectly by the tutorial writer, the comments of the youtube tutorial, or some discord community helping you out. This is not a bad thing. Stop acting like I'm advocating for some evil elite. > Not everyone needs to master programming, they need to achieve a goal Great! For them exists python. > if only the manner of interfacing and directing a computer were not unnecessarily arcane. I agree that it would be a net win if the likes of linux tutorials stopped using vim. Once we look past that we can see there are plenty of ides out there today that perform the function of the article's subject. Underlining faulty expressions, suggestions on how to fix it, a nice debug output at the bottom. > It's about people who need to get shit done You need a good baseline. You just do. Plenty of people won't do their own plumbing either. It would take a bit of time to learn the basics to fix your sink (python script), but to become someone who can design the pipage in a building ("business software")? That just takes time and experience. No way around it.
