I asked a question on a forum about why a command wasn’t working. They said I didn’t have an interpreter installed on my computer and were making fun of me. I showed them that I had one installed and that wasn’t the problem, but they continued to talk sarcastically to me without explaining anything. Only one of them suggested the cause of the problem, and he was right, so I thanked him. Then another guy said that if I couldn’t figure it out myself, I should do something else and that he was tired of people like me. After that, I deleted my question, and now I’m not sure. And I don’t think I want to ask for help ever again


Yeah I guess. I take the middle ground I guess. I’ll gladly help, but I won’t go out of my way unless they really show determination. I often explain that to succeed as a programmer, you need to enjoy grinding away at a problem for hours at end just to enjoy the progress it is to get to that new problem
Not the most motivating live, but I believe it’s honest
that, in summary, is my whole career.
