I did and after entering the field I had chosen after graduation, I quickly left. It wasn’t for me. What paid for school, however, was fixing computers, electronic word processors, and building and selling PC’s. Bought an Apollo system to learn Domain Aegis UNIX on and checked out every book on UNIX I could get my hands on. When Linux arrived, I got in at Linux 0.99pl13. I got a job and paid to continue my education. So yeah. When I started there wasn’t a community of enablers.
Depends on the topic. If enlightening them means I am enabling them to harm themselves, then no. Helping people waste time gaming and draw even more Steam users and their Windows crapware games towards tainting the purity of Linux is harming them and Linux, so no. No helping that.
No it’s not. There is no duty to anyone. Go to a library or book store and read what you want to learn.
People can’t financially afford that. They are paycheque to paycheque.

This isn’t a rage bait comment. Show me one Rust tool replacement made that didn’t alter functionality in some way, causing edge cases, and sometimes even mainline usage, to break and scripts have to be written to accommodate. I’ve not seen it yet. If you have, I will gladly stand corrected. The language is great, it’s the programmers at issue.
Oh, it’s not the language. It’s the type of people who not only like Rust, but have a compulsion / need / fixation on re-writing existing tools. They say it’s so it’s more secure, but honestly it’s so they can apply their own opinions of how the tool should be. They always promise to make it a drop in replacement, but then then get rid of options, or change what they do… they can’t help themselves. And that is the kind of people who volunteer to port tools to Rust. If they would stick to true 1:1 replacement, this wouldn’t be an issue.
Correct answer.
I warned ya. Rust folks never make a true 1:1 replacement. They have to tweek it. Always.

Fire the cuck.
Mistaking precisely documented Wiki for silence… Do you Mark All As Read your email each day, too? ;)
It needs to shed the gamers and get more useful users.
My mouth.
Because Linux has been awesome since at least Slackware 1.0.
Gamer’s coming to Linux and messing up all the forums and chats with their pleas to make their Windows games work is NOT a good thing.
