#166116 - Non academic gimme code? Responding to: Kiran V. Sutar's previous message |
Hi Kiran,
It sounds like you have had unpleasant experience guiding students. I can clearly see your point about not getting involved. I'm more for providing both motivated students and the enthusiast community, with the broadest selection of valuable academic resources. There is great benefit to the individual when provided with a variety of approaches to a given programming problem. What about non-student developers? As it stands, as a graduate, I'll be shredded for requesting all interested perspectives of a problem, one that I may be currently researching. I'm denied the full complement of academic resources, by this anti-gimme code regeim. Regards, Murray R. Van Luyn. |
