      For me it’s:

      Step 1: Google

      Step 2: Open stackoverflow link

      Step 3: Read a bunch of people yelling at OP about why their question/issue is dumb and that they need to Google more.

      Step 4: Find what might possibly be an answer to the question but it is written in a way that leaves out half the knowledge I would need to correctly interpret the answer because this person just assumes I know everything there is to know about programming already. Meaning I would never have need to ask the question in the first place, duh.

      Step 5: Leave computer in disgust and maybe try rubbing two sticks together to make a fire that I can use to burn everything down…
