Just a rebuttal to one point that irked me.
That helped a lot, and I don't resent them for that type of help at all. I'm sorry if it came across that way in the writing.
This is very true. Especially early on, while learning basic concepts, I found it very difficult to Google things because I did not know the terms or concepts involved. When I was attempting to self-teach my first programming language (Python), I could not understand the difference between parameters and arguments - but I didn't know that that was how to characterize my problem either. I just thought "why doesn't 'x' mean what I said it means over there?"
