@dankwraith i can't look up a fucking python library without getting like 5 straight results of trash before i get to the official python doc @dankwraith its all literally blog posts or tutorial that just regurgitate stuff from official sources. it sucks @dankwraith also was literally scratching my head over this earlier so thanks for the tip lol @dankwraith it seems particularly bad for c and other languages old enough for their foundational texts to not be online or not rank well in my experience @dankwraith search engines will make the knowledge of the world easily accessed by anyone! (a confluence of marketing interests lead to search engine's both becoming the primary means the web is accessed and completely filled with useless rubbish) ah! well, |
@dankwraith it's absolutely infuriating. one of the big reasons i'm so interested in creating educational materials is because of how fucking hard it is to find anything of any value online
