But so is a good book. And it costs way less. Even though searching may be quicker, having a good digest of a feature is worth the half hour I can spend browsing a chapter. It’s directly picking an expert brains. Then you take notes, compare what you found online and the updated documentation and soon you develop a real understanding of the language/tool abstraction.
In an ideal world, yeah. But most software instructional docs and books are hot garbage, out of date, incorrect, incomplete, and far too shallow.
Are you reading all the books on the market? You can find some good recommendation lists. No need to get every new releases from Packtpub.
