Please do not confuse stupidity with ignorance. Albert Einstein was ignorant when he was born. He did not know anything. He was smart and quickly learned much more than many people will ever know. My first computer program compiled and ran in the summer of 1967. I have spent most of my life since then learning about computers. There is far more information than I can ever hope to learn. New languages crop up nearly every day. I only know about a dozen well enough to write a respectable program in them. I frequrntly get on HN (Hacker News)and find articles about "New release of Zarbodog" and I sometimes click through to see whatI am missing (I've never heard of Zarbodog). Often the article tells about speed improvements, space savings, interoperability with some API but never actually states what Zarbodog is. A well-written article will start off with a sentence or two which tell what it is (hardware, software, website), what OS (Operating System) it is for, what language it is in (or compatible with), and what it is useful for. I see a lot of ACRONYM(Abbreviated Capitalized Randomly Ordered Names Yielding Madness) usage which is not explained upon first usage. This is also a good practice. If your failure to understand the titles or articles stems from lack of background, it is no sign of stupidity. You may never have enough background knowledge to fully understand all of the articles.
