Re: Moron
One can learn the mechanics of a language by reading the reference materials. Becoming conversant requires going beyond the references and learning the idioms. That means finding competent programmers and reading their code, and building up a set of examplars so that you don't have to reinvent from first principles whenever you run into a problem that you've seen solved cleanly before.
That works for me. Maybe it's different for you.
But if you're reading that to mean a general preference for "copy/paste", then perhaps I didn't choose my words with sufficient care, or perhaps you are reading more into what I wrote than the evidence supports.
Having a spelling posse works too, since mine isn't that good.
