@geekygirldawn this. This. This.
It is 1,000,000 times more frustrating to hear "I spent 4 full work days wrestling with this problem" when they could have just asked someone for guidance.
I'd add one piece here that strikes me alot these days: Google is hot garbage, ask a human.
Search engines were a crutch even in the early 00's before "SEO optimization".

@geekygirldawn and beware of "Florida ounces". A big problem with search engine addiction is that your QUESTION can be wrong in a way that causes unbelievable damage to self and surrounding. Again.... Ask a human you trust. Not 57 money-bros in a trench coat. Definitely not "AI". 🤷♂️ https://youtube.com/shorts/JSbomQjsIik
