It could be my bias but it seems a lot of inexperienced developers no longer read comprehensive books on topics but survive on Google, stack overflow, some documentation with examples/simple tutorials, blog posts and now Gpts.
All are useful tools but they are very poor in eliminating unknown unknowns like a book would.

I read a lot, it surprised me to find out that it was atypical in an industry that is supposed to be somewhat about leveraging brainpower. May as well stand on the shoulders of giants.
