It's always going to be a problem, unfortunately. Here, things get peer-reviewed (like what is happening right now), and hopefully people walk away learning better ways to do thing. On the internet, you have things like instructables websites which gives anybody a platform to publish how-to guides, without any kind of review, just an after-the-fact critique in the comments section (many from equally clueless people). The same with various other no-brainer short video clip websites, and various other text forums with the blind leading the blind. At least the clue-by-four you get on Linux mailing lists, that some people do not like, knocks the dumber ideas on the head. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.76.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Aug 10 16:21:17 UTC 2022 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
